Bio/Historical note: Edward Kent Phillips was born in Ottawa on 31 July 1904 and came to Saskatoon as a young boy. He graduated from Nutana Collegiate and received an MA in Engineering in 1925 from the University of Saskatchewan. He received his MA in Civil Engineering from the U of S in 1927. From 1925 until 1947, Phillips was a lecturer in the College of Engineering. From 1960-1966 he served as a member of the University Board of Governors. He was also a member of the University Senate and president of the University Alumni Association. Aside from his academic career, Phillips was also a prominent athlete. He played forward for the University of Saskatchewan hockey team in 1921-1922, the year the team became champions of the Saskatoon-Prince Albert Hockey League. He was also involved in rugby, having been part of the Saskwanis Rugby Club when they were Western Canadian champions in 1922. From 1928-1937 Phillips coached the football team and was an assistant coach from 1941-1943. In 1947 he became the first president of the Saskatoon Hilltops Junior Football Club. In 1948 Phillips became president of the Canadian Rugby Union. In 1951 Phillips was appointed commissioner of the Western Interprovincial Football Union, the precursor to the Canadian Football League’s West Division. He was also a member of the Saskatchewan Roughriders executive. Phillips died on 5 March 1972 in Saskatoon. He was inducted posthumously into the Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame in 1980. The E. Kent Phillips trophy is one of the Major 7 Awards given out by Huskie Athletics annually. The first E. Kent Phillips trophy was given to Dan Marisi in 1966. Prior to 1989, the award was awarded to an outstanding male athlete of a team sport. After 1989, the award was awarded to male recipients competing on an individual basis.
