Timeline
He attended Compton Junior College in southern California for a year, with plans to play basketball at USC, where his older brother Max (1914–44) starred in football.
Stephen Maxmillian Belko (February 14, 1916 – May 12, 2000) was an American college basketball coach at Idaho State College and the University of Oregon.
He was later the third commissioner of the Big Sky Conference.
The son of Russian immigrants, Belko was born in Gary, Indiana, and graduated from Froebel High School.
When the assistant basketball coach at USC that recruited him got the head job at Idaho, also a member of the Pacific Coast Conference, Belko followed Forrest Twogood north in 1936 and hitchhiked over a thousand miles (1600 km) to Moscow.
A two-sport athlete for the Vandals, he was a guard and small forward in basketball and a halfback and quarterback on the football team, and a teammate of future coaches Lyle Smith and Tony Knap.
As seniors in 1938, they led the Vandals to a .650 record, Idaho's best in years and the last winning season for a quarter century.
Belko opted not to play baseball, though he considered it his best sport.
A member of the Sigma Chi fraternity and senior class president, he earned a bachelor's degree in education in 1939.
Following his graduation from Idaho in 1939, Belko was a high school coach in northern Idaho at St. Maries for a season and for three at Lewiston, then served in the U.S. Navy in World War II as a Russian interpreter.
Following his military service, Belko briefly returned to Lewiston, then moved to the University of Idaho in Moscow and coached the Vandal freshman teams in football and basketball.
In 1950, Belko was hired as the head basketball coach at Idaho State College in Pocatello, which became a four-year school in 1947.
The NCAA tournament field varied from 22 to 25 teams in the mid-1950s.
Belko's six-season record at Idaho State was .680, and he was named the conference coach of the year three times.
The Bengals' conference record in his last four seasons was .920.
His Bengals soon dominated the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference and made the NCAA tournament in four consecutive seasons (1953–56).
This success led to his hiring in June 1956 at Oregon, then a member of the Pacific Coast Conference.
Belko was the head coach of the Ducks for fifteen seasons and posted a .450 record, with a .300 record in conference play.
His teams made the NCAA tournament twice, in 1960 and 1961, as an independent.
The 1960 team advanced to the Western regional finals, the national quarterfinals (Elite 8).
After five years as an independent, Oregon joined the Pacific-8 Conference (then "AAWU") for the 1964–65 season.
In February 1970, the Ducks upset three-time defending national champion UCLA at McArthur Court in Eugene, winning 78–65 to snap the Bruins' 25-game winning streak.
Following a pair of 17–9 seasons, Belko stepped down in April 1971 at age 55 and remained in Eugene as the assistant athletic director at Oregon.
After a year as assistant athletic director, Belko left the Oregon athletic department in 1972 to direct the Far West Classic basketball tournament in Portland for three years.
In 1975, he moved to Boise to work for the Big Sky Conference as an evaluator of basketball officials.
Belko was named commissioner of the conference in December 1976 and served from 1977 to 1981.
