Hall of Fame
Glenn Corbit was the Western Carolina Junior College Conference Player of the Year in 1983 after leading the Trojans to the regular-season conference championship and Anderson’s appearance in the NJCAA regional title game.
As a freshman, Corbit averaged nearly a double-double, scoring a team-high 20.1 points and 9.6 rebounds per game in 1982.
A native of Orangeburg, S.C., Corbit set a school record at the time for scoring average in a season with his 23 points per game during the 1982-83 campaign, while also shooting 59.7 percent from the field. The 6-foot-6 Corbit served as team captain twice, and was the leader of a team that saw the entire starting quintet receive scholarship offers to four-year institutions following the ’83 season.
He earned First-Team All-Region X accolades twice and was also a two-time first team all-conference honoree. The third-team junior college All-American was named AC’s Male Student-Athlete of the Year in 1983.
Corbit earned his degree in liberal arts and after leaving AU, became a two-year starter at Clemson, where he averaged 10.1 points and nearly three rebounds per game for the Tigers. He helped lead Clemson to 35 wins and back-to-back appearances in the National Invitational Tournament.
