Colonels Card of the Day

Mike Gale
A member of the ABA's All Defensive Squad for 1972-73, Mike has the potential to be a great pro guard. He has unlimited skills and, when unleashed, he could earn that title. Although somewhat reluctant to go to the basket, Mike has made some of his biggest games in clutch situations for the Colonels. Mike was an NAIA All-American in college.
