    The story of the Skyvue Golden Hawks can't be summed up in a 60-minute podcast and you likely had to have lived it to truly understand the magnitude, but we do our best to bring this story back to life with guest and star guard Mitch Hannahs. Skyvue, which was located in Graysville, Ohio (less than 100 people), eventually consolidated with Woodsfield HS in 1994 to form Monroe Central. However, a decade earlier, the Golden Hawks were rockstars in Monroe County. The team led by star guard Mitch Hannahs and running mates Todd Hilverding, Brian Leasure, Aaron Kilburn, and Vince Hogue went to back-to-back state tournaments in Class A. In 1984, Coach Mark Huffman's team dropped a (54-53) decision to Columbus Wehrle. The Golden Hawks would return in 1985 behind almost the same cast of characters, and this time Skyvue was ready to bring home the gold. The Black-and-Gold defeated previously unbeaten Van Buren in the semis before locking up with Jackson Center in an epic title game. With Huffman's club in control, it seemed Skyvue was going to do the unthinkable and bring home a basketball state championship. However, Jackson Center would have other ideas in a "Hoosiers" like ending. Though, two months later, Hannahs and Hilverding behind head coach Mark Huffman would help Skyvue capture the 1985 Class A State Baseball crown. The Golden Hawks defeated the defending state champs (previously unbeaten Miller City) and then Fort Loramie in the finals. Follow Kurt on Twitter: @Ohiohshoops

    The story of the 1987-1988 Cincinnati Woodward Bulldogs can't be told without revisiting the prior season. Coach Larry Miller's Bulldogs saw their season abruptly end in the winter of 1987, but that wouldn't stop the next version of Woodward High School basketball. The Bulldogs finished the campaign with a (26-2) mark capturing the first Division 1 state championship in OHSAA history. The team was led by the sensational Chip Jones and junior D.J. Boston. When discussing the greatest Cincinnati high school basketball team of all time, '88 Woodward has to be on the shortlist. As far as individuals go, if you never heard of Chip Jones, grab a pen and notebook. The amount of depth this team produced was simply unmatched. The Bulldogs ran away with the state championships defeating Columbus Linden McKinley (107-70) behind 27 points from Boston, 24 by Jones, and Orlando Berry added 17. Boston (51 points & 20 rebounds) and Jones (40 points) would be named Most Outstanding Players of the state tournament. Woodward would make another run in 1989 behind Boston, Berry, Melvin Bostic, and Katara Reliford, but the Bulldogs would fall to eventual champion Toledo Macomber in the state semifinals (57-50) behind 29 points and 7 rebounds for Ohio's Mr. Basketball Jimmy Jackson.

    The Middletown Middies dominated high school basketball from 1944-1959 winning 7 state championships. However, nothing compared to the years between 1955 and 1958 where the Middies won 76 consecutive games and 2 state titles before losing to Columbus North (63-62) in the 1958 state semifinals. The 76-game streak was spearheaded by legendary head coach Paul Walker and Parade All-American Jerry Lucas. Lucas takes us back in time with a special blast from the past. The man knowns as "Dr. Memory" shares some unbelievable stories and memories from his days at Middletown, Ohio State, the Olympics, and his time in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Most importantly, he discusses his lifelong passion for learning and education. Lucas is one of three people to win a high school, college, Olympic, and professional basketball championship.

Thirty years later, people still want to talk about and marvel over the boys from Mercer County. What if I told you a town of just over 1,300 people with two stoplights produced a senior class that went (51-2) in basketball earning state championships as juniors and senior and (14-0) on the gridiron as seniors. What if I also told you that senior class produced two Ohio State football commitments, 1 Penn State commit, 1 Toledo commit, two NFL players, a two-time All-American, a Pro-Bowler, and a Super Bowl Champion.
