George Passmore (lacrosse)

Hockey Codes

George William Passmore (August 24, 1889 to September 22, 1952) was an American lacrosse player who competed at the 1904 Summer Olympics. He was born in St. Louis, Missouri, and died in Florissant, Missouri, a town in the same metropolitan area, so the Games were held in the city where he grew up. In 1904 he became a member of the St. Louis Amateur Athletic Association team, which won the silver medal in the lacrosse tournament. His older brother William was also on the team, so the two brothers took part in the same Olympic tournament and shared in the same medal. The encyclopedia article is short and lists his profile at Olympedia as its external reference, so his Olympic medal is the main documented fact of his sporting career.
