About Stepas Butautas

In a 1990s interview, Butautas shared his memories about the senior Soviet Union national team's rivalry with the senior USA national team, at the 1952 Summer Olympics, by stating: "We decided to play the second game very slowly, to hold onto the ball. In short, to let the Americans control the ball as little as possible. The American squad had tall players (2.10 m or 6'11", and 2.13 m or 7'0"). Their shortest player was like our tallest. I remember when we decided to play that slowly, our team supervisor said, That’s not the Soviet school system. We lost the first game playing with the Soviet school system, by almost 30 points.
