With all the talent presently playing in Milwaukee area high schools - along with the fact that we already have verbal commitments from Wilson and Burton and are hoping to also land Looney and Stone - I started wondering when was the last time MU had at least three players in the starting line up from the Milwaukee area.
The best I can come up with was the 1962-'63 team when Ron Glaser (Washington High School), Bob Hornak (Marquette High School), and Lee Borowski (Custer High School) all started for the Warriors. I may be wrong, but I think all three players started togetheer for three years along with Dave Erickson from Minnesota.
It's certainly possible there was a more recent team that had three Milwaukee kids starting, but I can't think of any. In fact, the closest I could come was the teams with Jimmy Mac and Key.
Anyone know of any more recent team than the '62-'63 team?
If not, and if we can get a commitment from Looney and/or Stone, then it's possible we can have three (maybe even four) starters in a few years from Milwaukee area high school, the first time in a half century that could happen.
Go get 'em, Buzz!
