much"
So Max just stands under the
basket and dunks basketballs
through the hoop like a kid freed
ing pennies to a piggy bank.
HE has a ten-foot reach and
can drop the ball into the bucket
from his tiptoes,"' Gresham says.
Palmer, 19-year-old ninthgrader
weighing 300 pounds is used on of.
tense only and averages less than
half a game.
"At that he racks up better than
40 points a game" his coach says.
Il could score 100 if we wanted
to leave him in there and if our
boys were passing high enough"
Unable to get basketball shoes,
Max plays in heavy brogans with
heels, or just socks.
But that's all right we Just let
him stand there and wait for
passes" the coach declares. HE
never has to go down the floor. We
use only four men on defense"
Led by the giant forward, the
Vance cagers have been almost
unbeatable. They've lost only one OF
IL games and Palmer hit for AZ

fort.
"Our boys weren't passing high
enough to Max, else we'd never
have dropped that one," Grisham
