What I remember is they wanted to play up there but, because they were the school that wanted to play WHS, it would be on our terms. Some interesting, at least to me WHS basketball history, a guy by the name of Dave Degenertt who was African-American helped lead us to the 1930 state championship was the first integrated team to win. And the 1941,42 championship team included an African American, Charles Harmon who followed Jackie Robinson as the second African American to play MLB and the first to play for the Cincinnati R.eds I do remember that state championship game you linked. Chuck Harmon died this week on 3/19. He was 94. Nice article in Cincinnati Enquirer. Google and you can read it. He went to University of Toledo and played in the 1943 NIT at MSG. Scored 6 pts in the finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Order Amish would not be allowed to wear something as scandalous as a basketball uniform. My dad was Mennonite and grandpa wouldn't let him play until he was a junior because of the uniforms. He was all-sectional as a senior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 To both sides of this discussion. It's perfectly okay to celebrate Luke Brown as a great player at the high school level, while still understanding that he is not necessarily a player capable of making major contributions at a Power 5 school.

FKIM01 Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 All I've said consistently is that it's a little early to write off a sophomore that can shoot and score at a high level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't argue that Leal appears to be a better overall player at this stage in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 The problem with Indiana HS basketball is that there are likely a dozen kids every year that can shoot and help at the guard spot. There are only a few players that have that special size, athleticism, and skill that can turn this Indiana team back into a winning program. Let’s play this out and see how these kids look in another year...lot of room to grow for all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosier_exotics Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 I have not seen either in person. But would BS be a better team with Leal or Brown? Can you leave Brown with single coverage on defense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh...what do they have...like 6,000 students? The law of averages says if you have large numbers like that, you'll get better than average talent. Congrats I guess, but it's a lot more impressive when a little school beats a big one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a little over 5k. It was just under 4k when I graduated in 2006. A good number of the MIC schools have pretty large enrollments too I believe. I do agree it's a lot more impressive when a little school beats a big one but Carmel doesn't really play little schools you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
