Does anyone remember watching Kyle Morehart from Hillsboro? I saw him throw three-quarter court bounce passes that thread the needle through traffic with right-hand english so the ball would bounce up to hit a guy in stride for a layup. He was a passing genius. His court vision was incredible. He'd be looking at the right corner of the court and see a cutter coming from the left wing for a layup. And humble - what a nice young man he was, always deflecting praise to his teammates.

for lack of a better term watching him handle the ball was like watching the harlem globetrotters. i still play ball with him once in awhile and he's still awesome. i made a pass one day with a guy right it his face that was so awesome i swear the defender pulled his groin. and once he steps on the court he's in his range. the best part is that when he plays he looks like he's half dead, it looks so effortless. he's the best PG i've ever seen and i saw Hunter in person at state and i practically grew up around craig and have known him since he was a little little kid.

I'm guessing 1985? And he still can take over a pickup game whenever he wants!

hunter berg was a three time all stater

he dropped 58 points in his distict final game his senior year

scored over 2,000 points in his career

lost 2 games his last two years of high school...1 to minot ryan who was undefeated and won state in 1994 and the other to carrington who didn't lose to any classs b teams and won state in 1995

hunter could dominate a game like no one else but was very unselfish and team oriented

these r just a few of his many accomplishments

One that is better I don't 100% know if he played point guard but Bob Eaglestaff from Standing Rock in the 70's he is the third leading scorer in Class B and did it with out the three point line. He went on to play for BYU and then transfered to UND. Just a name to put out there. Might have been shooting guard. But he was Gooooood.

I played against Chris LaMoreux from Newberg and Mark Hochstetler from Wolford and there's no comparison. Mark H. could do it all. Best of all time? Maybe not, but I also saw him run the table on NDSU while he was at Mayville State. An incredible athlete!

Hochstetler was the real deal - and I neglected to put him on my All-decade team of the 80's. I also remember the NDSU game in which SU's coach of the time - whose name escapes me - called more than one time-out to chew out his players because Hochstetler was making minced meat of their defense and dribbling around them like they were the Washington Generals and he was Curly O'Neil

We're talking about the best of all-time here....not just someone who was a factor on a team that won a state championship.

Kyle Morehart still plays like that. He's 40 but can still beat the highschool players during pickup games. He'll jokingly say he's losing his touch...the main word there being 'jokingly'. I've only seen one tape of him playing in highschool and i was pretty impressed. Haha that could be a biased opinion though... :lol:
