Autograph and Photo Session
Dear Friends:
On behalf of the organizing committee for the Pasadena ISD Athletics Hall of Fame, I want to welcome you to the second annual Hall of Fame induction banquet. With another stellar group of athletes – and one standout coach -- being inducted tonight, we hope you will look back with pride over their accomplishments and look ahead with great anticipation to many more years of top-notch athletes and coaches joining them in the Hall of Fame’s permanent home, now under construction adjacent to Phillips Field House.
I want to thank all our Founding Donors for their financial support and for believing in the merits of our Athletics Hall of Fame. I want to thank our inductees, past and present. Without your accomplishments, we would not have the surge of community support needed to make our Hall of Fame viable. And I want to thank the Hall of Fame committee and a select group of Pasadena ISD employees, all of whom have played key roles in making this night possible.
As I look forward to tonight’s event and reflect back on the process involved, I want you, those in attendance and those who have offered your support for the Hall of Fame, to know that the future of this organization looks very bright. And for several reasons.
First, the list of potential future inductees is long. It includes many well-known names, former athletes and coaches who continue to be regarded in exceptionally high esteem.
Second, with the permanent home for the Hall of Fame nearing completion, the hall will become a fixed point of pride that will help cement the Pasadena sports community for years to come. A centerpiece of the completed facility will be the plaque display of the inductees and a special glass wall listing the Founding Donors of the Hall of Fame.
Last but not least, our banquet has already become a unique community event, one that draws big, enthusiastic crowds and affords all of Pasadena the chance to honor familiar names and relive special memories.
We hope that you enjoy tonight’s event. We encourage you to clap, cheer or even get a bit misty eyed. Take advantage of this opportunity to chat with our inductees or collect autographs. Tonight is a special night for our inductees. But it’s also a special night for you, the Pasadena sports fan.
Terry Brotherton Committee Chairman Pasadena ISD Athletics Hall of Fame
Dear Friends:
We arrive at tonight’s Pasadena ISD Athletics Hall of Fame presentation to honor a group of former students whose profound success in the field of athletics earned accolades at the high school level, at college and, for many, into the professional leagues of their respective sports. We are thrilled to recognize our honorees this evening.
Many individuals possess the skill and talent to achieve greatness. Not everyone has the heart to make it so. Our honorees certainly created a legacy for Pasadena ISD sports based on their personal and team achievements.
Their greatest legacy, however, does not rest in their destination as inductees in our Hall of Fame. Rather, their greatest legacy rests in their journey… the sacrifice, hard work and commitment it took for each of them to be the best they could be. What a great example for young people today!
The achievements of each of our recipients remained buried in the history of our school district for too long. I am grateful for the great minds in our community who helped develop the Pasadena ISD Athletics Hall of Fame as a way of recognizing the incredible successes of the men and women of the Pasadena ISD who represented our district so well in sports venues across the country.
Congratulations to our inductees into the Pasadena ISD Athletics Hall of Fame. Thanks to each of you for your legacy as a role model to our students today and in the years to come.
Dr. Kirk Lewis Superintendent of Schools Pasadena Independent School District
Dear Guests:
The Pasadena ISD Athletics Department would like to welcome you to the second annual Hall of Fame Banquet. We are excited about you joining us again this year for this outstanding event, organized to honor those athletes and coaches who have made significant contributions to our school district over the years.
If you have driven by Veterans Memorial Stadium, you have probably noticed several changes. Through the support of our community and with funds provided in the last bond election, we have moved forward to elevate our facilities to 21st Century standards.
The first phase was the facelift of our parking lot and the installation of improved lighting around Veterans Memorial Stadium. The new aquatics center, due to be completed in September, will provide a great atmosphere for our swimmers and divers, for both practice and competitions. The stadium itself is being upgraded with new ticket booths, concession stands and restrooms. New field house dressing rooms are in the works that will provide our football and soccer teams with modern support facilities during their seasons.
Last but not least is the building of the Pasadena ISD Athletics Hall of Fame facility between Phillips Field House and the football stadium. This permanent Hall of Fame will house historical displays and memorabilia, all designed to preserve the history of Pasadena ISD athletics.
We are excited about the changes, and we thank Dr. Kirk Lewis, our school board and the community for their support of athletics in the Pasadena ISD.
Thank you for attending tonight’s banquet. We hope that you have a great time.
Rodney Chant Director of Athletics
Pasadena Independent School District
Tonight’s Guest Emcee
DAN PASTORINI
Across the full span of the 1970’s, no athlete on the Houston sports scene exceeded the efficiency or matched the magnetism of Dante “Dan” Pastorini, the star quarterback for the Houston Oilers during the team’s “Luv Ya Blue” glory days.
Pastorini quarterbacked the Oilers from 1971 to 1979, leading the team to a peak of success rarely realized by Houston sports franchises. In both 1978 and 1979, he guided the Oilers to the AFC Championship Game, the final step before the Super Bowl.
The Oilers lost both title games to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the second following a controversial pass from Pastorini to Mike Renfro that was ruled incomplete, costing the Oilers a chance to tie the game late in the third quarter.
Still, Pastorini’s name will be forever linked to one of the most precious memories in Houston sports, the exploits of the rough-and-tumble “Luv Ya Blue” Oilers, coached by Texas legend Bum Phillips and powered at their peak by the state’s greatest gridiron hero, Earl Campbell.
In his nine seasons with the Oilers, Pastorini missed only five games because of injury. In 1975, he was named to the Pro Bowl team after topping the 2,000-yard mark for passing yardage in one season for the first time.
Having emerged as a savvy and courageous field general by the late Seventies, Pastorini set career highs with 2,400 yards and 17 touchdown passes in 1978. The Oilers that season beat Miami and New England before falling to the Steelers in the AFC title game.
Pastorini topped the 2,000-yard mark again in 1979, even though Campbell gained 1,600 yards on the ground. The Oilers disposed of Denver and San Diego in the playoffs before losing to the Steelers again in a contest marked by the officials’ controversial call on Pastorini’s apparent TD pass to Renfro.
Pastorini was traded after the 1979 season to the Oakland Raiders. He finished his career with single-season stops in Los Angeles and Philadelphia. He earned one Super Bowl ring, as a member of the 1980 Raiders.
While with the Oilers, he made NFL history by becoming the first NFL quarterback to wear a “flak jacket” as protection against rib injuries. His determination to play through the pain of broken ribs earned him praise as one of the most courageous players of his generation.

JOHN BRYAN Coach / J. Frank Dobie High School The Inductees
History teachers aren’t necessarily supposed to make history. Such isn’t the case with John Bryan, whose coaching achievements qualify him as one of the great track and field generals in Texas over the past two generations.
An acclaimed American History teacher for much of his 38-year career in education, Bryan helped put Dobie on the Texas athletic map by guiding the Longhorns to the state championship in cross country in 1980 and to the state track title the following spring.
A member of Dobie’s first coaching staff in 1968, Bryan left the Pasadena ISD after the 1980-81 school year for La Porte and then Clear Lake, where he continued to produce cross country and track standouts over the next 16 years.
A Pasadena native, Bryan played football and ran track for Pasadena High, graduating in 1959. He contributed to the Eagles’ march to the state championship game in football in 1958, the longest post-season run by any Pasadena ISD football squad.
After coaching stints at Queens Intermediate and Pasadena High, he joined Sam Sailor’s Dobie staff and methodically groomed outstanding track and cross country programs. In 1980, he produced two state track champions: John Robinson, who set a state record in the 1600 meters; and Gawain Guy, who won the 800 meters. That fall Guy won the state cross country title, carrying Dobie to top honors.
In 1981, buoyed by Guy’s dash to glory and by two national pace-setting relay teams, Bryan’s Longhorns won the coveted state track championship. Guy captured the state title in the 1600 meters. The Dobie senior posted the nation’s top time in the 1600 meters that year – as did Bryan’s 3200 meter relay team and his distance medley squad.
Bryan collected 12 district and four regional titles in cross country in addition to his state championship with the Longhorns. He produced 15 regional meet and eight state meet qualifiers in cross country.
In 1988, he was selected as recipient of the Texas High School Coaches Association’s Outstanding Achievement Award. He was inducted into the Gulf Coast Track Coaches Hall of Honor in 2001.
The Inductees
MICKEY SPENCER
Pasadena High School / Class of 1947
As the nation transitioned from global conflict to an uneasy peace in the post-World War II years, no Pasadena athlete represented the new rough-and-tumble age of high-school football better than two-way lineman Mickey Spencer. With leather helmets a thing of the past – but with the luxury of facemasks still in the future – Spencer helped usher in an era of large suburban schools populated by the sons and daughters of gritty refinery workers and rugged war veterans.
Spencer’s arrival at Pasadena High in 1944 coincided with a generation of football glory for the Eagles. Over his three varsity seasons, Pasadena compiled a 255-4 record, winning district championships all three seasons.
As a senior in the fall of 1946, Spencer took part in the Eagles’ jump to the big-school 2A ranks and went through district play twice tied but unbeaten in six games. Spencer earned all-state honors for his outstanding play in 1946, the first athlete in Pasadena ISD history to be chosen. The City of Pasadena recognized the accomplishment with a day named in his honor.
The president of his class and a true leader on campus, Spencer was awarded a football scholarship by legendary Texas A&M Coach Homer Norton. He lettered for the Aggies from 1948 to 1950 under Harry Stitler. After two lean seasons, the Aggies finished 7-4 in 1950 with Spencer contributing one interception on defense. The 344 points scored by the Aggies in 1950 remained a school record for any A&M team until 1976.
The Aggies that season beat Georgia 40-20 in the Presidential Cup, played in College Park, Md. The bowl game was the final contest of Spencer’s football career.
After his graduation in 1951, Spencer entered the Army as a first lieutenant and served 18 months overseas during the Korean War. In 1983, he married Milly Wilburn, a 1947 Pasadena High classmate. The two had reunited at a 35th class reunion the year before.
Mickey and Milly were married 27 years before Mickey’s death in 2010.
The Inductees
RANDALL KERBOW
Pasadena High School / Class of 1959
The quarterback of the only Pasadena ISD football team to play in a state championship game, Randall Kerbow went on to star for the last of Jess Neely’s Rice University bowl teams. As a professional, he played wide receiver for the Houston Oilers of the old American Football League and quarterback for the Edmonton Eskimos of the Canadian Football League.
As a senior at Pasadena High, he was considered the best quarterback in the Houston area. An elusive runner and productive passer, he was a unanimous all-district selection and the most valuable player in District 12-4A. He earned all-state honors and was named a high-school All-America by Teen Magazine.
Moreover, he led the Eagles to their first district title in 12 years and engineered his team’s drive to the 1958 state title game, where the Eagles fell to Wichita Falls.
Kerbow signed to play football for Neely’s Owls, a Southwest Conference juggernaut in the 1950s. Kerbow helped extend that streak of success by helping guide the Owls to a 7-3 regular-season record as a sophomore in 1960 and a Sugar Bowl berth against Ole Miss. As a junior in 1961, he led Rice to another 7-3 regular-season mark and a Bluebonnet Bowl berth against Kansas. Although Kansas won, Kerbow threw a TD pass to give the Owls an early lead.
Rice failed to qualify for a bowl game Kerbow’s senior season and didn’t land a bowl spot for the next 45 years. Still, in 1962, Kerbow threw seven TD passes and was named All-Southwest Conference by the Dallas Morning News. He completed his college career with 1,343 yards passing, 11 TD passes and five more TDs on the ground while also serving in punting and placekicking capacities.
Kerbow was picked to play in the North-South Shriner All-Star game in Miami after his senior season and contributed to a South victory with a TD pass. Kerbow left Rice as a three-year letterman in football and baseball.
A free agent in 1963, Kerbow made the Oilers roster as a receiver and caught five passes. He found greater professional success in the CFL as a quarterback and punter. In 1966, he led Edmonton to its first playoff berth in nine years.

BOB ALLEN
South Houston High School / Class of 1965
Rarely does the world of sports produce a sidelines-toheadlines story as compelling as that of South Houston’s Bobby Allen. A reserve player at the start of his senior season, Allen would transform himself, in four short years, into an all-state talent and then into one of the most respected receivers in the Southwest Conference.
Undersized and thoroughly unknown as a Trojan underclassman, Allen played sub-varsity football until his senior year. That fall he reported with more weight on his frame and slamming desire inside to prove himself.
Then, in a game early in the 1964 season, the Trojans’ starting halfback, Tommy McIlhany, went out with an injury. Harry Morgan, South Houston’s coach, scanned the bench in search of a replacement, spotted a jersey that matched the position (No. 21) and waved the occupant into the game. Bobby Allen ran onto the field – and straight into the lexicon of state football fans. He rushed for 1,084 yards on only 170 carries that season – finishing only 55 yards behind Spring Branch rushing star Chris Gilbert, who went on to earn AllAmerican fame with the Texas Longhorns.
Allen’s best game came in a 72-31 South Houston rout of Aldine. He rushed for 174 yards on only nine carries and scored four touchdowns, three on cross-country runs. The Trojans later lost to Spring Branch in a showdown for the district title. Still, head-to-head, Allen outgained Gilbert 84 yards to 47.
Allen led the district in kickoff returns with 291 yards on only eight runbacks, an average of 36.4 yards per return. Nearly unstoppable behind the line of scrimmage, Allen totaled only 12 yards in losses for the entire season.
Recruited by nearly four dozen schools, he signed to play for J.T. King at Texas Tech. Moved to wide receiver, he led the Red Raiders in receiving in 1968 with 35 catches for 546 yards and four TDs.
Now a highly successful businessman, Allen has provided thousands of dollars in financial support in recent years to the South Houston High football program.

FRITZ CONNALLY Pasadena
High School / Class of 1976
Known as “Fritzie” to everyone except the kids who kept his baseball cards in their back pocket, Fritz Connally produced one of the most memorable careers in Baylor baseball history, tore up the minor leagues with his booming bat and logged 58 major-league games before hanging up his spikes.
Just a year into his high-school career, he helped bring recognition to his hometown by contributing to the Pasadena Colt All-Stars’ dash to the 1973 Colt World Series. Connally lettered four years in both baseball and basketball at Pasadena High and earned all-district honors in both sports as a junior. He repeated his dual all-district honors as a senior and was also named second-team all-state in both sports. As a sophomore, he helped the Eagles reach the state semifinals in baseball. His basketball skills earned him AAU all-star status the summer after his graduation.
Connally lettered four years at Baylor and helped turn the Bears’ baseball record book inside out. He set new school career home run marks with 38 homers and 156 RBIs – and was named first-team All-Southwest Conference in each of his four seasons.
Baylor’s third baseman and cleanup hitter, he hit over .300 every season and produced a slugging percentage of .697, still good for the No. 4 spot on Baylor’s all-time list. Moreover, he helped lead Baylor to the College World Series in 1977 and 1978, the first two trips to Omaha in school history.
En route to the CWS in 1978, Connally was named the most valuable player of the NCAA South Central Regional. In 1979, he was named the Bears’ most valuable player.
Drafted in the seventh round by the Chicago Cubs, Connally embarked on an impressive minor-league career. In five seasons in the minors, he never batted lower than .288. Over those five seasons, he belted 92 homers and knocked in 375 runs. Over his last three seasons, he hit 92 homers and drove in 375 runs. He played in eight games with the Cubs in 1983 and 50 with the Orioles in 1985. Although he hit only three bigleague homers, his first two were especially memorable. Both were grand slams. Connally was elected to the Baylor Athletics Hall of Fame in 1996.

JIMMY JOHNSON
Sam Rayburn High School / Class of 1976
Probably the most well-rounded athlete in Sam Rayburn High history, Jimmy Johnson displayed skills on the baseball diamond and on the football field that caught the attention of both the Houston Astros and Texas Longhorns. Johnson chose to take his talents to UT, where he played on the final Longhorn team coached by Darrell Royal and then helped Earl Campbell win the Heisman Trophy in 1977.
Johnson first gained local notoriety in the summer of 1973 when he helped lead Pasadena’s Colt All-Star team to the Colt World Series title in Lafayette, Ind. As a Sam Rayburn sophomore the following fall, Johnson began a career that earned him three varsity letters in both football and baseball, as well as two letters in track. He was named to the All-Greater Houston team in baseball both his junior and senior years. The Astros drafted him as an outfielder in the 16th round immediately following his senior season.
Johnson’s senior exploits in football enabled him to realize his dream of playing for UT. After earning second-team all-district honors his junior year, he blossomed on the gridiron as a senior, winning a berth on the All-Greater Houston squad and laurels as the outstanding running back in District 23-4A.
A backup to Campbell as a UT freshman, Johnson rushed for 272 yards, logged a 5.7 average and scored three touchdowns, all against Texas Tech, one a 60yard romp to open the second half. He became the first Longhorn freshman to score three TDs in one contest.
Johnson played football and baseball as a freshman at UT, but Royal’s retirement led to the hiring of Fred Akers, who asked Johnson to focus on football. The 1977 season turned into a dream season for Akers and the Longhorns. Campbell won the Heisman and UT went unbeaten through the regular season.
Johnson started three games as Campbell’s fullback, rushed for 158 yards and scored two TDs. He wrapped up his college football career with an appearance in the Cotton Bowl, where Joe Montana and Notre Dame ended UT’s national title hopes.
Johnson finished his Longhorn career with 430 yards rushing, a stout 5.1 average and five TDs.

GAWAIN GUY
J. Frank Dobie High School / Class of 1981
In the two decades that followed Bert Coan’s domination of the state meet in 1957, Pasadena ISD track teams remained as strong as any in the region. But no individual over that period came close to rivaling Coan’s record for seemingly superhuman track achievements at Pasadena High. Until Dobie’s Gawain Guy dashed onto the scene in the late 1970s.
A native of Jamaica, Guy won two state track championships -- in separate years and in separate events – and as a senior captured the state cross country title. He went on to break records and earn All-America honors at Rice University. And he realized his dream of competing in the Olympics when he ran for Jamaica in the 1984 Summer Games in Los Angeles.
Guy first appeared on the radar of area runners when he finished third at the state cross country meet in the fall of his sophomore year. He finished fifth as a junior before leading the pack his senior year.
As a junior, he won the 800 meters at the state track meet. As a senior, he doubled the distance, established himself as one of the premier milers in the nation and led Dobie to the 1981 state track title.
Coached by fellow Hall of Fame inductee John Bryan, Guy won the state 1600 meters and followed that with championships at two of the nation’s most prestigious meets: the Golden West High School Invitational and the International Prep Invitational.
He clocked the fastest mile in the nation in 1981 – a 4:07.25 – and was ranked as the No. 1 miler in the land by Track and Field News. He anchored Dobie’s 4x800 relay team, which produced the best time in the nation in 1981. And he ran on a Dobie distance medley relay squad that also posted the nation’s top time.
Guy’s career at Rice was equally rewarding in both indoor and outdoor competition.
He earned All-America honors indoors by winning the NCAA title in the 1000 meters. After taking a year off to compete in the Olympics, he repeated his 1000 meters championship in 1986. Outdoors, he won the Southwest Conference 880 title in 1985.
One of Guy’s greatest thrills came in 1984 when he became a U.S. citizen. In 1998, he was inducted into the Rice Athletics Hall of Honor.
AMANDA BUFFALO
Pasadena High School / Class of 1985
The goal for every track athlete is to be the first to break the tape. Amanda Buffalo was first to break a barrier.
In 1985, just a few weeks before her graduation from Pasadena High, Buffalo won the 800 meters at the state track meet in Austin.
In doing so, she became the first female athlete in Pasadena ISD history to win a state championship in any sport.
In that same meet Buffalo finished third in the 1600 meters after claiming titles in that event at the district and regional levels. In cross country, she earned regional berths in each of her four high-school seasons. She advanced to the state meet as a junior and again as a senior, when she took the regional crown and finished fourth at state.
As a senior, she was named to the National High School Track All-America team.
While at Pasadena High, she followed a running regimen that included 25 miles per week. She also found time to participate in Pasadena High’s Marine Corps JROTC program.
After graduation, she competed in the prestigious International Sports Exchange track meet in Seoul, South Korea, winning the 800 meters and contributing to a victory in the 1600 meter relay.
She also took seventh in the 1600 and qualified as a long jumper.
Following her senior year, she was named the outstanding track athlete in the Greater Houston Area by the Houston Athletic Club.
Buffalo continued her track career at Stephen F. Austin State University, where she set several school records and pocketed four Gulf Star Conference titles.
She claimed conference crowns in the 10,000 meters, the 1500 meters, the triple jump and another in cross country. She finished 11th at the NCAA regional meet.
She was named the outstanding track athlete in the Gulf Star Conference in 1986.
