Tradition Never Graduates - Basketball is family right? I mean, that’s what any high school, college, and even professional basketball player is going to tell you. Players like to say it’s the competition that gets their juices flowing or the roar of the crowd that gets them fired up. What if there was a place where the competition, the roar of the crowd, and the feeling of family all blended into one? That would be utopia for most basketball fans. Well, there is such a place. Welcome to Mesa High School basketball. READ MORE

Mesa TOP ALL TIME PLAYERS - Richard Obert, azcentral sports
Mesa High has as rich a football history as any high school in Arizona. Boys basketball was good in the school's early years. But it really picked up in the 1980s under coach Paul Newendyke, and hasn't stopped rolling under Shawn Lynch in the early 2000s and now with Scott Stansberry in charge.

It is easy to find 10 players but extremely tough to pick a No. 1. Any of the top three players can make a case for being the best basketball player in school history. Here are Richard Obert's top all-time Mesa High boys basketball players. STORY
