Alvin Leonard Adelman was born in Waco on September 20, 1920. He served as the coach and captain for Baylor's fencing club in the early years of its existence, leading teams to win the Southwest Conference Championship from 1939-1941. In 1940, he also won the individual competition for all three weapons. He served in WWII as a technical sergeant in the Army Air Force for four years, before returning to Baylor to complete his law degree. Mr. Adelman graduated Baylor Law School in 1948, after which he went on to complete his law degree at NYU. He practiced for the law firm Beard and Kultgen until his retirement in 1999. Mr. Adelman was a student of Jewish history, philosophy and archeology. His greatest joy was his many trips to Israel to visit his ancestral homeland. On Wednesday June 5, 2002, at age 81, Mr. Adelman died in a nursing home after a long illness. This tournament was set up to honor his legacy.
