A new book by Bonnies legend Sam Stith, ’60, celebrates the legacy and inspiring journey of Sam and his brother, Tom, ’61.
This compelling memoir, “The Stith Brothers: College Basketball’s Greatest Brother Act,” recounts their remarkable journey from St. Bonaventure to national recognition as one of college basketball’s most iconic duos.
Together, they scored a remarkable 53 points per game at St. Bonaventure, shattered records, and made unforgettable appearances in NITs and NCAA tournaments.
But their journey was about more than just the game — it was about breaking barriers, integrating high school and college basketball, and blazing trails for future generations. The Stith brothers’ story is one of overcoming tragedy and poverty, fueled by unwavering family support, community strength and a bond that could not be broken.
More than a sports tale, “The Stith Brothers” is a testament to resilience, sacrifice and the power of brotherhood.
