For this episode I’m joined by one of the best Minnesota boys high school basketball coaches to ever pace the sidelines.  John Oxton led the Lakeville North boys basketball program for 33 seasons, appearing in 12 state tournaments, capturing the 2014 class 4A state championship and finishing his career with 706 wins currently leaving him with the 6th most wins in state history.

Prior to arriving in Lakeville, “Ox” was the head coach for Gardiner High School in Montana and led them to a state championship in 1989 and he also won a state title as a player for Fargo North High School in North Dakota.  We cover a number of topics including his two-year coaching sabbatical that he took at Lakeville to watch his daughter play high school basketball, JP Macura and the 2014 state title team and how so many Lakeville North players ended up at Wisconsin.
