Tom Crean
He was named the Head Coach of Indiana Men's Basketball team in 2008
Crean's most famous act of heroism occurred during the Terra Nova Expedition when he embarked on a 35-mile solo trek across the treacherous Antarctic terrain to save the life of a critically ill teammate. This extraordinary feat of endurance and bravery earned him widespread recognition and solidified his reputation as one of the most dependable and courageous members of the expedition. Despite the tragic outcome of Scott's journey to the South Pole, Crean's actions were instrumental in ensuring the survival of several members of the team.
In addition to his work with Scott, Crean also served under Sir Ernest Shackleton during the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914–1917). When Shackleton's ship, the Endurance, became trapped in ice and eventually sank, Crean was part of the small crew that made the perilous journey to South Georgia Island in a lifeboat to seek help. This daring voyage, led by Shackleton, is considered one of the greatest survival stories in the history of exploration, and Crean's role in the mission was critical to its success.
After his Antarctic adventures, Crean retired from exploration and returned to Ireland, where he lived a quiet life running a pub in his hometown of Annascaul. Despite his incredible achievements, Crean remained a humble and private individual, rarely speaking about his experiences. His legacy as one of the most courageous and dependable figures in Antarctic exploration continues to inspire adventurers and historians alike.
