Yeah, JD King mentions this also in his piece on Griffin:
As you may remember, his teammate, RJ Davis, has committed to UNC. If he stays past his freshman year, that would be yet another high school Dynamic Duo that went to opposite ends of 15-501, joining the likes of Gerald Henderson/Wayne Ellington and Jim Spanarkel/Mike O’ Koren. Art Heyman and Larry Brown were not high school teammates but were both New Yorkers and close friends they chose opposing schools. We think there were some others but we can't recall them right now.
Another example that comes to mind is of Ambridge, PA HS teammates (state champs in 1967) Dick DeVenzio to Duke and Dennis Wuycik (a year behind) to UNC. Their Ambridge team, which also included big man Frank Kaufman, who went on to Purdue, is considered one of the best in PA basketball history. Dick DeVenzio passed away in 2001.
Here's a nice piece from a local newspaper on the 1967 Ambridge team. http://www.ambridgeconnection.com/lo...th-anniversary
The National Prep poll named the Ambridge team the No. 1 team in the country after the close of the 1967 season. The team went 27-0 and was led by standout players who went on to play at various colleges after their stint in Beaver County. Wuycik, junior forward, later played at North Carolina and led the Tar Heels to an NIT championship and to an NCAA Final Four appearance. The late Dick DeVenzio, a senior who was Coach Chuck DeVenzio’s son and point guard, led a successful team at Duke and later played internationally. Kaufman, who will be delivering the keynote address, played center for Purdue.
