The Bogan record

We tend to forget the accomplishments of the past.

In 1943, the Trojans (then LRJC), coached by Herman Bogan, went 22-10. This was a 13-game improvement from their previous best win total.

That record stood for 40 years! It was not until the Kestenbaum team of 1983 won 23 games that it was eclipsed. It was during World War II, and players likely were hard to come by (since most of them were doing their shooting somewhere else with a more lethal weapon). Most of their opponents we would consider to be very strange - corporate teams mainly. Most Trojans do not know about that year, but for several reasons it has to be ranked as one of the more remarkable seasons in Trojan history.
