Elton Stanley was a basketball player for the Monarchs from 1971-1975. Stanley, named an NAIA All-American in 1975, was a four-year starter for a Monarch squad that claimed three DIAC championships. Stanley teamed with fellow Methodist Hall of Famer Greg Jones in leading the Monarchs to DIAC championships in 1972, 1974 and 1975. Jones and Stanley entered the Hall together and were the first men's basketball players to be inducted. Stanley was named to the All-Tournament team all four years.
