Gola was praised as a great all-around player as a high school student, and he came to national attention while playing for local La Salle University Explorers in 1954 as an All-American forward.
At 6'6", Gola was clearly a forward who could shoot/score, rebound and defend, but he also had the ballhandling (dribbling, passing) skills of a guard, and with his shooting range and All-Pro defensive skills, could play just as well in the backcourt.
Gola was married to Caroline in June of 1955, and they had one son.
