Taymon Domzalski

Domzalski grew up in Lovington, New Mexico with future Hall of Fame NFL linebacker Brian Urlacher.

There Urlacher describes Domzalski as "a gifted athlete who could do it all" and who brought national attention and excitement to Lovington with visits from famous college coaches including Bobby Knight of Indiana, Roy Williams of Kansas, Mike Krzyzewski of Duke, and Jim Harrick of UCLA who visited their small town of Lovington to check out Taymon in person.

Highly recruited, he turned down offers from UCLA, Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas, among others, to attend Duke University.
