Jerome Nichols, ’87, transferred to the University of Mary as a junior from Milwaukee Tech. He was a player who people loved to watch. During his two years as a Marauder, Nichols led the team to 46 victories.
“I had the privilege to coach Jay and I truly feel, pound-for-pound, Jerome was one of the finest athletes to wear a Marauder basketball uniform,” said former men’s basketball coach and current athletic director, Al Bortke.
Nichols continues to hold the record for most points scored in a single season with 732 points and the record for most rebounds in a single season at 383 rebounds. His name can also be found in the record books for all-time rebounding as he posted 707 rebounds during his two years as a Marauder.
Today the business administration graduate is employed with Equitable Bank. He and his wife, Theresa, live in Milwaukee, WI.
