Sample Questions
Basketball
There are very few basketball players who have won a high school state championship, NCAA Division 1 championship, Olympic gold medal, and NBA championship. Magic Johnson is one of three to pull off the feat; the two others also won their NCAA titles in the Big Ten, one at Indiana and one at Ohio State. Name either. (Note that while some Internet sources claim Bill Russell also managed all four, research indicates California didn’t have official state championships when he played.)
