Member of the FSU Hall of Fame
Elected into the FSU Hall of Fame in 1986
From 1969 through 1972 Florida State basketball teams won 67 and lost 18, the best 3 year mark in Seminole history. A key to that record was Rowland Garrett from Canton, Mississippi, one of only two men to play on FSU's two finest clubs, 1969-70 and 1971-72 Rowland, an FSU co-captain, averaged 13.0 points a game and was a major force in his team's drive to the NCAA finals. After graduation Garrett played for five years in the NBA. From tiny Tully to Pauley Pavillion, Rowland Garrett well represented Florida State and was a leader of its greatest basketball teams.
