70 years ago, the mighty Alden-Hebron Giants defeated much larger Quincy High School to win the IHSA championship. Hebron became the smallest high school ever to win the Illinois State Championship!
The Hebron Green Giants were led by coach Russ Ahearn. The team’s starting five: guards Ken Spooner, a junior, and Paul Judson, a senior; senior forwards Don Wilbrandt and Paul’s twin, Phil Judson; and 6-foot-10 junior center Bill Schulz.
