Uncaged The Rise of Greg Oden, Mike Conley, and the National Champion Lawrence North Wildcats

The main focus in this story behind a team that has achieved unprecedented success and garnered unprecedented attention both in Indiana and nationally is center Greg Oden, regarded by many as the top high school basketball player in America. Oden and Mike Conley, Lawrence North's point guard and Oden's close friend, lead the team to its third-straight state championship and become the first Indiana team to ever win the mythical national championship. Beginning with the roots of Lawrence North High School in Indianapolis and legendary Coach Jack Keefer, and moving towards a friendship forged between Conley and Oden, Uncaged gives readers the full perspective on this incredible team with extensive behind-the-scenes background from assistant coach J.R. Shelt. Lawrence North won the 2005-06 Class 4A state title, tying the state record of 3 consecutive state titles and the longest winning streak of 45 games.Krider, Dave is the author of 'Uncaged The Rise of Greg Oden, Mike Conley, and the National Champion Lawrence North Wildcats', published 2006 under ISBN 9781596700420 and ISBN 1596700424.
