Thank you to @NewCastleBBall for hosting us yesterday for a shootout! Great hospitality and first class facilities, some would say the best in the country. We were also able to stop by the @HoopsHall before taking the court! #EPB | #EarnYourTAGS

It's always a special day when one of our inductees stops by the @HoopsHall! This week, we welcomed 2024 inductee Dick Nyers back to the museum. The Manual High School legend was a two-sport legend who rewrote the record books at Manual. He is also inducted into the Indiana Football Hall of Fame and spent some time playing with the Baltimore Colts!

#AroundTheHall Step inside the @HoopsHall museum and explore our John Wooden exhibit, honoring one of the most influential figures in basketball history. The Martinsville native built a legendary coaching career at UCLA, leading the Bruins to 10 NCAA Nat. Championships, including an incredible seven straight titles from 1967-1973. The exhibit features a special video presentation of Coach Wooden delivering one of his famous speeches in his own voice, giving visitors a powerful glimpse into the wisdom and leadership that inspired generations of players. Guests can also view an incredible collection of memorabilia including awards, letters, photographs, and personal items, all the way down to his fraternity beanie from his days at Purdue. Coach Wooden was a member of the @HoopsHall’s very first induction class in 1962.

That’s a NICE shirt 🤩 @RealCGriff
The Spurs vs Thunder series has just become a constant conversation about flopping and foul baiting instead of actual basketball @clubtrillion

Today was Indianapolis 500 day, and while the eyes of the state were fixed on @IMS, we couldn't help but notice some high-octane energy sitting right here in our museum display cases. Just like the legendary track in Indianapolis, Indiana high school basketball had its very own "Speed Kings." Check out these two incredible artifacts from our collection: The Urbana High School Speed Kings: This vibrant green and yellow car represents the Urbana Speed Kings (Wabash County), a school that proudly carried the high-speed moniker before consolidating into Northfield in 1962. The Swayzee High School Speed Kings: Featured on this classic purple and gold license plate, the Swayzee Speed Kings (Grant County) took the name to legendary heights. They proved their name was all about endurance on March 7, 1964, when they defeated Liberty Center 63-61 in a grueling, nine overtime Regional semifinal game at the Marion Coliseum. It was a phenomenal marathon that remains a legendary Indiana state record to this day! Whether it’s four wheels on asphalt or sneakers on hardwood, Hoosiers have always possessed an undeniable obsession with speed, timing, and unmatched endurance. Our state's rich automotive heritage is woven tightly into the very fabric of our communities, right alongside our love for basketball.

The school year is winding down, but the energy is high at the @HoopsHall! šŸ€ We recently loved hosting Eastern Hancock’s 7th graders. They didn’t just learn about our state’s hoops history, they lived it! From testing their vertical leaps to taking game-winning shots and stepping into the announcer’s booth, it was an action packed day!

This Mother’s Day, the @HoopsHall honors the women behind the legends — and the legendary women among us. Long before many of our inductees took the court, they learned discipline, resilience, and heart from their greatest supporters: Mom. And for many of our inductees who are mothers themselves, those same values continue to inspire the next generation both on and off the court. To all the amazing moms out there, your love, strength, and inspiration make the world a better place. Thank you for everything you do. Happy Mother’s Day!

This handwritten 1934 State Tournament booklet is a remarkable new addition to our collection. In a year where 773 schools competed, every score was meticulously documented by hand from Sectionals to the State Finals. It’s more than just a record book, it’s a labor of love and a snapshot of the game’s rich legacy in our state. We’re truly grateful to add such a meaningful piece to the museum’s collection. šŸ€ #IN49OtherStates | #BasketballLivesHere
