Before he became the radio voice of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Tim Alcorn was calling Lorain County high school basketball games. And in 1986, he had a front-row seat to one of the greatest teams our area has ever seen.

"I'll put that team up against any team in the history of Lorain County high school hoops. They were the best I ever saw." — Tim Alcorn

Join Tim on July 17 for our screening of the 1986 State Championship game as he moderates a special panel discussion featuring players and coaches who participated in the game.

You'll hear stories, memories, and behind-the-scenes moments you won't find anywhere else.
