    Pro Athletes From Your High School

    This was inspired by the school jersey thread. What athletes from the three major professional sports (MLB, NFL, NBA) went to your former/current high school. Below is a list of former Jets from my old high school (Encinal High School, Alameda, California).

    Without knowing for sure I think Encinal might be the only high school (or one of a very few) to have 4 alumni with World Series rings.

    Tommy Harper
    Curt Motton
    Jimmy Rollins
    Willie Stargell
    Dontrelle Willis
    Melvin Carver
    Ray Crouse
    Junior Tautalatasi
    Isaiah "J.R." Rider

    Hi Dewey, that's a pretty impressive list. I went to a very small high school in rural Mississippi, Taylorsville High. The whole list is as follows:

    Tim Moffett - WR Raiders
    Jason Campbell - QB Redskins
    Tim Duckworth - OT Saints

    My High School is right outside of Washington DC called Springbrook. I took this off of Wikepedia:

    I attended Newtown HS in Elmhurst Queens. Luis Del Los Santos who played for the KC Royals during the late 80's went there too.

    My brother-in-law grew up in Washington Heights and actually attended George Washington HS while Manny Ramirez was there too.
