Wilmer Clemons Hosket Sr. (February 19, 1911 – December 19, 1956) was an American basketball player and coach.
A 6'5" center, Hosket starred at Stivers High School in Dayton, Ohio, whom he led to three state championships from 1928 to 1930. He then played at the Ohio State University, where he won a Big Ten Conference championship in 1933. After college, Hosket played for a short time in the National Basketball League as a member of the Dayton Metropolitans. His son, Bill Hosket Jr., played at Ohio State and in the National Basketball Association. However, Hosket Sr. died before he could see his son play.
Both Hoskets have been inducted into the Ohio State University Hall of Fame and the Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame.
