I have no idea. I know that he was Mr. Everything in high school, but did he ever lead his team to a state title?

I'm just wondering if Lebron has ever won any kind of championship at all.

They won state his freshman, sophomore, and senior year.

More importantly, his senior year they were national champions as well.

ETA: His team lost one game to a team from the state of Ohio in his sophomore-senior year at St. Vincent-St. Mary's (State Championship game his junior year).

Thanks. So, he has won championships before. I do not doubt his talent, I just didn't know if he had ever scaled the mountain and felt what it was like to cut down the nets and hold the trophy. He has. Even though that was high school, it at least tells you that mentally, he got over the top.

Now, something must have happened to him. You can just tell that he is a head-case. It is all mental with him. He has the talent to take over a game, but not the will or confidence. Strange.

Dunno if this is more important. They were champs because of the hype he was receiving. A national championship in HS is a joke, there's no way that the voters can see enough of those teams to rank them...

it's like the posters on here who tailgate all day for lsu games, watch 30 second highlights on ESPN, and then run here to claim that the rankings are BS.

I remember watching his games on ESPN...It's the only time you could watch a high school athlete and know that he could immediately hang with the pros.

This... Not comparing Lebrons team to uhigh, but in glen davis and garrett temples senior season they finished 21st in the nation. Not sure how accurate that really is, but they seemed damn near unstoppable

high school national rankings in pretty much every sport are absolute shite. although, i will say they can probably get the top team correct. so, lebron's team being number 1 was probably accurate. a uhigh team with that talent being 21st was probably a little off.

I don't know. If his perimeter shots were falling last night he would have had a whale of a game

He still had a triple double. Just didn't shoot well from outside.

Not hard to run through D3 Ohio basketball with an AAU team.

Watch the documentary about his HS career, it is really cool. You will see that they traveled all over the country playing the other top ranked schools and they just abused them all. I don't think anyone could watch it and not say they were the best team in the country. It doesn't matter if you didn't see any other teams play, they were so damn amazing you would know they were the best!

They played one of the toughest schedules in high school basketball history. They played everyone, and they were beating those teams by 20+ points. They were absolutely the best team in the country.

They moved up to div 2 his last two years. His JR the NE sectional was probably the hardest in the state at all divisions. SVSM, Warrensville Heights, my school, and Olmsted Falls with Dan Biggionelli and Mike Gansey. Close to 10 div 1 players on those teams.
