A native of St. Louis, MO, but a product of Campion High in Wisconsin, Dick Boushka (pronounced BOO-shka) was named first-team All-Missouri Valley Conference three times (1953-55) during his SLU career. In his senior season, 1954-55, Boushka was a member of The Valley championship team that went 20-8 and advanced to the NIT Tournament. His postseason honors included consensus All-American and a third-consecutive Jesuit All-American. Boushka, who had 1,440 career points, owned virtually every SLU scoring record when he completed his career. He departed with SLU records for most points in a game (38 in a thrilling win over Alabama during his junior year), most field goals in a game (15 vs. Alabama), most field goals in a season (1954-55) and top single-season scoring average (21.4 in ’53-54). He also left with the best career scoring average, 19.2 points per game.
