Mark Workman

Men's Basketball

The late Mark Workman was possibly the best scoring center ever to play Mountaineer basketball.

Workman was born March 10, 1930, at Logan, West Virginia. He lived there until the 10th grade, when he moved to Charleston to prep at Charleston High School. Workman was a two-sport star at Charleston High and led the Mountain Lions to the West Virginia basketball state title as a junior, despite the fact that his coach initially thought he was too tall to play.
