Phelan Set For 1000th Game As Mount St. Mary’s Hosts Wagner
Mount St. Mary’s coach Jim Phelan reaches 1,000 career games Thursday as Wagner visits Knott Arena. Despite the milestone he faces a 2-8 start and the shadow of a potential fifth losing season in 37 years. Phelan downplays the achievement, noting longevity beyond control while peers like Wooden and Smith remain out of reach. The all‑time leader, Clarence Gaines, led 1,199 games entering this season.

Mount coach Phelan nears 1000 games as Mount St. Mary’s battles on
The Mount St. Mary’s coach Stan Phelan, 61, nears his 1000th game with a 681-317 record, sharing praise for his success and recalling a 1962 NCAA Division II title. Injuries this season hinder his squad, with star guard Kevin Booth out after game two and other players sidelined. Phelan, a Philadelphia native and LaSalle alum, remains a fierce competitor with his trademark bow tie and a coaching staff expanded to two assistants and a graduate student.
