Wofford College Athletics

A 1929 graduate, Finney scored 56 points in 1928 to lead the state.  He was named to the All-Southern team and was Wofford’s first-ever team MVP.  The first Wofford athlete elected to the South Carolina Sports Hall of Fame in 1961, Finney led the Terriers to their first winning record in football since 1919 with a 7-1-1 mark.  After earning a degree at the Medical College of Virginia, he returned to practice medicine in Spartanburg for many years.
