Recent or back in the days, Who was the best player from your high school that has ever played? or Someone that you saw play?

Highlands (Scott Draud) :thumb:

Most definetly, I seen him play one night he had 56 points, that was before the three point shot, and most of shots would have been three pointers!!!!

Bellevue (Jason West)

John Turner from Newport back in the days was a pioneer for high school basketball. Went on and played for Louisville and took the Cardinals to the final four.

West was a good player for the Tigers went to a few camps with him, Craig Bricking and Tony Ross.

Conner is a tough call.

 

You've got Tony Faehr, Rick Hicks, and Ralph Parton from the 70s.

Scott Thomas in the 80s.

 

I'd say one of those 4.

Tim Couch-Leslie Co.

Simon Kenton--Jeff Krohman or Troy McKinley cannot chose betweent those 2.

What about Dave Cowens, he played for New Cath back in the 60's. Then went on and played for the Boston Celtics!!

He wasn't the best player on his team, and he'll tell you that. He was a great rebounder and very athletic, however he blossomed at FSU. For NewCath, from my memory of b-ball there, which is very limited, 90-present I'd say John Brannen.

Lawrence County has had several good players throughout the years but not one that stands out but here is my short list:

 

Mike Ryan

Sam Sparks

David Michael

Kevin Ferguson

Brian Skaggs

Eddie Vinson

Phil Ratliff

Glen Robinson

Spencer Harris - My personal all-time favorite.

Gerad Parker

Derrick Endicott

CAWOOD

Nick Sanford

Phil Cox

At Covington Catholic, I'd probably say Roger Tieman.

 

PJ Thelen did have a few NBA tryouts, though. But, much like Cowens, Thelen blossomed after his high school playing days.

From what I recall seeing, and going back a little further at NCC; I'd say Tony Sandfoss!!
