Legendary basketball player and coach Morton Combs, 96, has passed away. Morton was a member of the 1932 Hazard State Championship team. He was actually the player who scored the winning basket for Hazard to beat Louisville Male. Morton was probably the last surviving member of that Hazard team. He was also the coach of Carr Creek when they won the state title in 1956. Knott Co's Morton Combs Athletic Center was named in his honor. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family of this great man.
