i go to sheldon clark and there hasnt been much basketball talent come from there as most of you know...But since i can remember going to high school games the best in my opinion was J.R. Vanhoose and Todd Tackett.I'm sure there has been better players of the years but these are two that i got to watch when i was younger and they both were very good.

I can't believe no one has named Todd May, from Virgie.

Dan Swartz, "Dangerous Dan", from Bath County, played for owingsville high in the 50s and played at MSU for his college days. Went on to get drafted into the NBA to the Boston Celtics and won a world championship with them. He's the best player to have ever came out of Bath County as far as basketball goes. Jeff Wilson was also a great player, but made bad decisions outside of basketball that cost him his chance in the NBA.
