Basketball Manitoba is pleased to share the news that Terry Ball will be inducted into the Manitoba Sport Hall of Fame this April. He will be inducted as an Athlete based upon his dominance on the university scene from 1966-70 with the Manitoba Bisons. As a big guard who shot left-handed, Ball scored at will in his day and was the league scoring champ three times to go with his four Western All-Star nods and four All-Canadian honours. In 1967, ’68 and ’69 he was the Bisons’ MVP and the school’s Most Outstanding Athlete in 1968. Ball also played with the Canadian National Team in the summer of 1970. He was inducted into the Manitoba Basketball Hall of Fame in 1991. Terry is part of the induction class that includes an international medallist and builder from Lawn Bowls and two national championship teams from Football at Sport Manitoba’s Night of Champions, presented by the Manitoba Chicken Producers, on Monday, April 30, 2012 at the Winnipeg Convention Centre.
