Show The 1963-64 Wildcat team was the highest scoring unit in the history of the school and was rated fourth in the nation among the major colleges with a 91.5 average per game. In ten games during the season the cats scored over 100 points; seven of those were at home. During the latter part of December, center Bob Lewis, guard Parker Jenkings, and JC transfer Jim Mount left school for personal and academic reasons. This weakened the Weber State line-up and its bench strength. Considering the personnel losses and a poor road trip to Montana and Montana State, the Wildcats had a terrific year and proved that Weber State can hold its own against Big Sky competition. The biggest win of the year was a 91-84 conquest of previously unbeaten Montana State. Individual honors were paid to several Wildcats. Mike Sivulich was selected a Little-All-American on the second team and made the first team on the Big Sky all-conference five. Jim Lyon and Jerry Trice were placed on the second team, and Gene Young received an honorable mention. Lyon was also picked for the A. A. U. All-American first team and tried out for the Olympic team. The Wildcats were the highest scoring team in the Big Sky Athletic Conference, averaging 84.5 points per game. Jim Lyon was the fourth highest scorer in the league with a 17.0 average. Mike Sivulich was fifth with a 16.4.
