This small town about 20 miles south of Indianapolis produced a team that captured the Indiana State Basketball Championship three years in succession, 1920–1922.

After their high school successes, most members of the team followed Wagner to Franklin College, where he became basketball coach.

The "Wonder Five" team took on those of large universities, including Notre Dame, Illinois, Purdue, and Wisconsin.

It was not until February 1924 that the team suffered its first defeat, by Butler University, ending a string of 50 consecutive victories over a 2-season span.

Coach John Wooden, of UCLA fame, considered Fuzzy the greatest high school basketball player he had ever seen.
