Bucky O’Connor Youth Tournament 

Bucky O’Conner graduated from Newton High School in the early 1930’s. He went on to coach the Iowa Hawkeyes leading them to the Final Four in both 1955 & 1956. The second-place finish in 1956 is tied for the best performance in Hawkeye basketball history. Bucky O’Conner was tragically killed in a car accident at the age of 44.
