In 1920 Phillips Petroleum began its sponsorship of the 66ers basketball team which accumulated a 1,543 to 271 record, won two Olympic Trial championships, captured 11 Amateur Athletic Union crowns, produced 39 AAU All-Americans and yielded four company presidents - Boots Adams, Paul Endacott, Bill Martin, and Pete Silas. The team disbanded in 1968 because of increased competition from professional teams.
