Alexander (June 1, 1924 – March 28, 1982) was a college basketball and tennis coach who was the head coach of the Murray State Racers from 1954 to 1958.[1] An assistant under Harlan Hodges, Alexander was promoted to head coach in 1954 after Hodges left MSU for Idaho and former North Carolina head coach Tom Scott turned down the job.[2] In his four seasons at Murray State, Alexander had a 45–54 record and no tournament appearances.[1] He was replaced by DePauw University head coach Cal Luther on March 5, 1958, but stayed on as an assistant coach and professor.[3] In 1976 he was the recipient of the Murray State Distinguished Professor award.[4] He was inducted into the Murray State Athletics Hall of Fame in 2000.[5] Alexander's son David played basketball at Western Kentucky in 1971.[6] His grandson Troy played for Southern Methodist University.[7] Alexander was a native of Union County, Kentucky. He died in an automobile accident in 1982.[8] References1. ^1 http://racerhistory.com/ 2. ^{{cite news |author= |coauthors= |title=Alexander Named Basketball Coach at Murray State |quote= |work=Chicago Tribune |date=June 2, 1954 }} 3. ^{{cite news |author= |coauthors= |title=Murray Names Luther |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=3wYdAAAAIBAJ&sjid=IkcEAAAAIBAJ&pg=4023,368126&dq |quote= |work=Park City Daily News |date=March 5, 1958 |accessdate=March 19, 2010 }} 4. ^http://www.murraystate.edu/alumni/img/Murray%20State%20Distinguished%20Professor.pdf 5. ^http://www.goracers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=6700&ATCLID=204764050 6. ^{{cite news |author= |coauthors= |title=Western Cage Signee |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=NsQaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=nEYEAAAAIBAJ&pg=5429,2768737&dq |quote= |work=Daily News |date=May 14, 1971 |accessdate=March 19, 2010}} 7. ^http://smumustangs.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/alexander_troy00.html 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.goracers.com/hof.aspx?hof=92 |title=Rex Alexander |author= |date= |website= |publisher=Murray State University Athletics |access-date=December 27, 2016 }} External links
