Lebanon School District, where he played basketball and tennis, winning a Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League doubles championship.[2]  In 1942, he enrolled in Washington & Jefferson College, playing baseball and the freshman basketball team.  He then enlisted in the United States Navy to serve in World War II in 1943.[2]  Later, he attended Bethany College, again playing basketball and leading the team in scoring.[2]  He then attended University of Colorado, where he led his basketball team to the 1946 NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball Tournament and played baseball.[2]  Following his discharge from the military, he returned to W&J to complete his degree, graduating in 1947.[2]  He then played for 2 years in the professional National Industrial Basketball League, leading his team in scoring both years.[2]  He was drafted by the failing Pittsburgh Ironmen in the 1947 BAA Draft.[3][nb 1]  When his contract was then sold to the New York Knicks, Knoche demanded $2,500 (equivalent to $30,300 in 2021) to play for the team, a demand that was not met.[3][4]He served in the United States Navy as a Navy intelligence officer, in World War II, and the Korean War.[4]He joined the CIA in 1953 as an analyst; he was fluent in Russian and the Fuzhou dialect.[4]  During the Cuban Missile Crisis, he briefed President John F.

W. Bush.[4]  In that position, he was responsible for day-to-day agency operations.[4]On January 12, 1977, he was honored as a recipient of the President’s Award for Distinguished Federal Civilian Service.
