Hall of Honor
An all-SCIAC selection at least one-time in each of the four sports he played, Newman earned all-conference honors eight times, including six, first-team selections. After graduating from Caltech he earned numerous World Records for his shooting ability, making the most free-throws, 20,371 (out of 22,049 taken or 92.39%) in a 24-hour period from September 29-30, 1990. This record remains in place. Additionally, he made 209 consecutive 3-point baskets at the age of 60 in 1996 and nailed 88 consecutive free throws while blind folded. Newman, who went on to become a computer programmer and former Caltech Men's Assistant basketball coach, was an early student of fellow inductee Fred Anson at the Institute.
