Lost Cowboys - Ryan John Thorburn - Bog

- The Story of Bud Daniel and Wyoming Baseball

Bag om Lost Cowboys

In the 1950s the University of Wyoming, already making national headlines with an NCAA basketball champion ship under its belt and a strong football program, made one of the great hires in the athletic department's history when Glenn "Bud" Daniel was named baseball coach. Daniel, who finished his playing career at Wyoming after serving in World War II, started recruiting nationally and playing one of the nation's most difficult schedules. It all paid off in 1956 when the 'Pokes played their way into the College World Series. Some great players called Cowboy Field home over the years-from Bob Jingling to Art Howe to Greg Brock to Jeff Huson-but the proud program was uncer emoniously dropped by the university in 1996. Lost Cowboys documents the proud history of Wyoming baseball from the early days of Milward Simpson to the glory days of Daniel to the final outs in Laramie.
