ULM to retire Saulters' No. 12 jersey

Posted: Updated:

MONROE, La. (AP) - Louisiana-Monroe will honor former basketball great and Olympic gold medalist Glynn Saulters by retiring his No. 12 jersey at halftime of the Warhawks' final home game of the season against Louisiana-Lafayette Saturday. Saulters becomes the first men's basketball player in school history to have his jersey retired.

Saulters was 1 of the most prolific scorers in ULM history from 1965-68. He is 1 of just two players in school history to have recorded over 2,000 points in his college career - he ranks second all-time with 2,134 points.

Saulters also holds 7 of the top 10 single-game scoring marks, including a 51-point effort against Nicholls State during the 1967-68 season.
