Preserving a Legacy is an ongoing archival project dedicated to digitizing, preserving, and sharing games and moments in Titan athletics history. Many of these recordings have not been publicly available for decades. Today, we take a look back at Illinois Wesleyan University men's basketball's 82-60 win over Augustana College from Jan. 27, 1977.

Four Titans finished in double figures led by Naismith Hall of Famer Jack Sikma with 20 points. First Team Academic All-American Bob Spear closed with 15 points followed by Al Black and Ed Moore with 13 and 10, respectively. As a team, IWU shot 48 percent from the field.

If you are a former Titan student-athlete, coach, or fan and have old game tapes or recordings, we would love to help preserve them. Contact live stream coordinator Tyler Wilson at twilson2@iwu.edu.

Help us share the history and legacy of Titan athletics.
