2019 marks the 30th anniversary of Toledo basketball legend Jimmy Jackson and the Macomber Macmen shredding their way through the competition to become the first Toledo Public Schools boys team to win a state championship.

Basketball took Jackson to an All-America career at Ohio State, then all around the world in 14 years in the NBA and now as a successful analyst.
