TERRY “ELK” INNISS and the late Derrick Garrett have a lot in common as far as basketball is concerned as players and administrators.

Both Inniss and Garrett, who passed away on Thursday at the age of 53, after a lengthy battle with cancer, were teammates on the Combined Schools Tristars side.

They were also members of the Barbados junior team which enjoyed a successful tour of Puerto Rico in 1981.

Inniss is a former president of the Barbados Amateur Basketball Association (BABA) while Garrett also served as BABA president from 2011 until his passing. (EZS)
