(Michigan City, IN) - Hoosier Hysteria continues tonight at Slicer gym.
Michigan City takes on South Bend Adams in the sectional
semi-finals.
Chances are one of the greatest local high school players ever will be
there.
Dan Palombizio dunked the ball at the buzzer to beat South Bend Adams
In 1979.
His team at what was then Rogers High School in Michigan City advanced to
the semi-state when all schools were in the same tournament.
Palombizio says the buzzer beater was probably the fondest memory of his
Stellar high school career.
He went on to lead the nation in scoring in college at Ball State University.
Palombizio, a former Indiana Mr. Basketball, was drafted in the NBA then
had a long professional career in Europe.
