Hall of Fame
A two-time all-conference and all-district honoree, Terrence Hamilton led the MIAA in rebounding in 1987-88. Hamilton earned All-MIAA second team honors that season before being named to the all-conference first team the following season, and was a National Association of Basketball Coaches All-District V second team selection both years. One of just nine Blue Tigers ever to tally at least 1,000 points and 500 rebounds, Hamilton is currently 13th in program history in points (1,229) and 10th all-time in rebounding (652). Hamilton was named a captain in two of his three seasons at Lincoln and earned four MIAA Player of the Week accolades while averaging 16.6 points for his career, including over 18 points per game his final two years.
Following his career at Lincoln, Hamilton enjoyed a stellar professional career in Australia, averaging 30.1 points per game for the Adelaide Buffalos and 26.7 points per game as a member of the West Sydney Steamers. Hamilton returned to his alma mater as an assistant coach for the men's basketball team from 1991-93, and served as the head coach of the women's basketball team from 1993-96. He later pursued a career as a high school coach, leading teams to two district championships, a pair of sectional championships and three trips to the state tournament, including leading Normandy High to a state runner-up finish in 2013.
