The Viking Basketball Team

Another activity that sustained the familial cooperation and health of Viking Team Members was the Viking Basketball Team. Not only were Vikings excellent problem solvers of the engineering, science, program management and computing ilk, but like many high achievers recognized today, many excelled at other activities. Basketball was just one of a few activities Vikings were known for. Others included bicycling (often many miles per day in addition to meeting mission milestones), and musical performance. Barbershop singers could be found in many teams in the Project Office, engineering at Martin Marietta, and with Mission Operations, just to name a few.
