Easily the highest scoring player in the area, Minney's mastery of a basketball was known throughout the league and region.

Nobody called with a scholarship after Minney scored 50 points in the county championship game, singlehandedly outscoring the opposition. Nobody called with an offer despite a 57 points per game average as a sophomore. Unfortunately Minney grew up 70 years too early. Before Facebook, YouTube,...
