George Derrieux '62 was a four-year starter on the men's basketball team from 1958-62. A two-time team captain and team MVP for the Eagles, Derrieux averaged 11 points per game during his career. He saved his best season for last, as he averaged 17.2 points per game while providing stingy defense against centers that towered over him. Derrieux led the Eagles in rebounding during two different seasons and recorded 20-plus rebound games numerous times. He was named a unanimous MCAU All-Conference player in his final season in 1961-62. Derrieux was also a scholar, as evidenced by his standing on the Dean's List. He graduated from Central with a Bachelor of Science in education. Upon completing his degree, he embarked on a career spanning 30 years in public education.
