Stanley Henry Arnzen (August 8, 1914 – April 23, 1977) was an American professional basketball player.[1][2] He played for the Cincinnati Comellos in the National Basketball League during the 1937–38 season and averaged 4.6 points per game.[1][3] He played baseball and basketball at Morehead State University for two years.[2]

In 1937, Arnzen signed to play minor league baseball for the Cincinnati Reds organization. He competed for the Welch Miners (1937), Columbia Reds (1938–1939), and the Charleston Senators (1940).[4] He won the Spalding Trophy his first season, given annually to "Outstanding Minor League Player" of that season.[2] A broken leg ended his baseball career before he made it to the MLB.[2]

Arnzen became a high school teacher as well as a baseball and basketball coach at Newport High School in Kentucky.[2] He did not have a losing season in 22 years as basketball coach.[2]
