Caltech coach found winning formula for losingest team
Oliver Eslinger let out a primal scream amid the 387 fans who stormed the basketball court on Feb. 24. His players, unaccustomed to winning, drenched him near the Caltech bench (right tradition, wrong sport). Eslinger had coached the Caltech men\’s basketball team, one of the country\’s losingest basketball programs, to its first Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference win in 26 years and 310 games.
