Custodial history
The jacket is the first warm-up jacket the River Falls State Teacher’s College basketball team ever had. RFSTC made it all the way to the 1948 NAIA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament but lost their 1st round game. Eau Claire loaned warm-up jackets to them to go to this tournament. RFSTC went again in 1949, this time with their very own jackets. Unfortunately, they again lost in the 1st round. In 1950, RFSTC basketball team again went to the NAIA tournament, this time winning their 1st round game, but losing in the second round to the team that won 3rd place.
