Houston, TX – Today, the Greater Houston Basketball Committee (GHBC) announced the finalists for the 2021 Guy V. Lewis Award. The winner of the award is the Greater Houston Area Boys Basketball Player of the Year. The Award is in honor of College Basketball Hall of Fame Coach Guy V. Lewis (1922-2015), who led the University of Houston program from 1956-1986. An alumnus of the University of Houston, Guy V. Lewis led the Cougars to five Final Fours, won nearly 600 games, and was a pioneer for the game. The announcement of the Guy V. Lewis Award occurs during Final Four week, a fitting spot for the award, considering that only eight coaches ever took their teams to more Final Fours than Lewis.
