Here are three: From memory...no guarantees

Hazard >>> Walt Hazzard - Point Guard

Blackman

Slaughter >> Fred Slaughter - Center (?)

How could you leave off Gail Goodrich, their Shooting Guard?

This amazing College Basketball team went undefeated in 1963-64 with a 30-0 record despite the fact that no one on the team was over 6'5" tall. They were really exciting - the little team that could. They regularly had to go up against teams that had power forwards and centers who were 6'7" to 7'0". They were smaller than every team that they beat. As I recall, they had 2 players who were 6'5" - their Center and their Power Forward. I think Fred Slaughter was one or the other and their other forward was only 6'3" and I'm pretty sure his name was Jack Hirsch, a very scrappy player. I don't remember the name Blackman, but he could have been on the team. I know that it wasn't Rolando Blackmon. So I'm adding:

Guard - Gail Goodrich and

Forward - Jack Hirsch

for a total of at least 4 of the players - maybe all 5. Can anyone confirm or correct the players on this amazing College Basketball team - the first of John Wooden's 10 National Championship teams in 12 years.
