Yeah, Hickory is fictional. One of the guys in the movie commited suicide. Not from the actual team. The guys in the movie were not actors, but just high school basketball players from Indiana. I think I heard it was the guy that said “Let’s win this one for all the other small town teams that never made it.”

I could be wrong, …
I could be wrong, but I thought Hickory is a fictional team in the movie Hoosiers. The real team is from Milan High School. Those players would be old men by now.

I love this movie. I used to watch it back home in Santiago, Chile… I really never ociated it to any particular town. I never ever imagine one day I would end up in Bloomington, Indiana… GO HOOSIERS!

Cool. I played a few away games at a gym just like it in middle school. Delta Middle played their home games at the old Royerton High gym and they were in our conference. At the time we complained about the gym being so old, but now we are thankful for the memories of experiencing the history of Indiana basketball first hand. Royerton High had an old analogue clock on the wall and very bad lighting. That was 82/83.

I know there have been tons of great American sports movies: Friday Night Lights, Eight Men Out, Bull Durham, Major League, Ali, Pride of the Yankees, Field of Dreams, Slapshot, Rudy and even Raging Bull (which shouldn’t even be considered “simply a sports film”), In my opinion there is no finer, more uplifting American sports movie than HOOSIERS

Great movie, very moving theme music.

Anybody who played team sports in their youth has got to be touched by this.
