The Eulogy of Pittsburgh’s Schenley Spartans chronicles the history of the most storied high school basketball program in Western Pennsylvania, a region known mostly to the nation for its football talent. Author Mark Hostutler details the 2006-07 team, which featured three future professionals, and puts into perspective the Spartans’ achievements in an era when the best scholastic squads are the ones taking full advantage of the transfer epidemic sweeping the country.
