Bill May (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 2005

Remember Hoosiers? Truth be told, the passion and intensity of Indiana high school basketball goes far beyond anything Hollywood might conjure up. Tournament brackets are studied and memorized. Tickets are always sold out, pep rallies jammed. Then comes game time: sneakers tearing up hardwood floors, cheerleaders' pom-poms flashing at courtside, wave upon wave of cheers raining down from the rafters after every basket, steal, and no-look pass. This comprehensive, revised, and updated edition of Tourney Time includes the complete scores of every tournament game from 1911-2005. Year by year, school by school, the reader can see how each team advanced in pursuit of the ultimate Hoosier hoops dream. Tourney Time is a treasure for Indiana high school basketball fans, the ultimate wager-settling reference, and a catalog of athletic achievement.

Basketball referee Bill May has taken the time to compile a fascinating report that any Hoosier would find informational in regard to the famous Indiana high school basketball tournament. I used the book as a reference in writing articles for the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame magazine. On occasion, when discussing Indiana basketball there is a need to clarify a score, a date, teams who played where , etc. and this book gets that job done. I congratulate Mr. May on his dedication and his contribution to "Hoosier Hysteria." This book will be useful in years and years to come.

Wow, I checked this out at my library and was amazed at the info in this. I am from Indiana and this has every score from every sectional, regional, semi state and state game from 1911 - 2005. I bought a used one on Amazon for my own for a little over $2!!! Best money I have spent in a long time.
