Shaq: Texas high school title started his dreams

Shaquille O’Neal won four NBA championships and an Olympic gold medal in a career 622x350 (61)that likely will land him in the Hall of Fame. O’Neal said he owes a lot of it to his 1989 state championship team and coaches at San Antonio Cole High School. They were honored at the Texas state tournament Saturday on the 25th anniversary of their title. “We were just a little school in San Antonio. No one believed in us, but the lessons I learned at Cole carried my whole career — being humble, playing hard, working with your teammates,” O’Neal said. “Cole gave me the start of my dreams.” O’Neal’s military family moved to San Antonio before his junior year. click here for complete story
