Title: Anyone go to school with a pro athlete?
Post by: Big BpG on March 20, 2005, 02:08:49 AM
I went to school with 'Reece Gaines' who was drafted by the Magic, traded to the Rockets and now plays for the bucks. He was a star player here in Madison, WI... passed up the UW to play for lousiville and now plays in the NBA... doesn't do shit really...hopefully he'll get his moment...

I went to the same middle school as Sean White, one of the best snowborders in the world today when I lived in San Diego. Hes a cocky ass bitch, hes been a Pro Snowborder and SkateBoarder since when he was 14.. My Brother went to School with Tony Hawk and several other pro athletes in Torrey Pines High School. That High School and that area of San Diego had losts of Future Pro Athletes and famous people.

I never went to school with a pro athlete but I played on the same basketball team as David Hehn who is a 6'5 Shooting Guard for Vermont.  We played on the same team together when I was 14 for the Canadian Basketball Championships.

Other than that, All I can say is that I went to the same high school as Wayne Gretzky.

I didn't go to school with any, but I played baseball with/against a handfull of guys who now are pro ball players. (Justin Morneau of the Twins, Jeff Francis of the Rockies, Adam Lowen was drafted by Baltimore, Sean Bowman was signed by the mets, Matt Roggelstad was signed to the Mariners that all I can think of off the top of my head)
