Class of 1948 state champions honored

On Feb. 27 (Friday) at Milan High School, the varsity boys' basketball team will play host to an alumni group of hoops players when the 1948 Milan state champions are honored at halftime. This season marks the 60th anniversary since the championship was earned, and the five remaining players are traveling from distances short and small to be present for the ceremony. The original trophy will be re-presented to the five players, including Rolly Dunsmore, Sherman Collins, Wayne Tooman, Harlan Benjamin and Dick Trimm. For those interested in witnessing the honor, the basketball game against New Boston Huron that night begins at 7 p.m. in the Milan High School gymnasium.
