GoDuke.com Sat Down With Freshman Basketball Player David McClure:
“GD: Who was your biggest rival in high school?
“DM: Well we probably had three big rivals in high school. We had Stanford High because they were in the City Championship game almost every year and almost every year even though we were ranked higher than them they always gave us a close game, so that was a good one. Warren Harding High School gave us a couple of good battles in our division and I’d say through the whole state I think either Colby Cathedral or Northwest Catholic. We normally saw one of those two teams in the final each year. And then players – there probably wasn’t one player in my division but I think the biggest hype game of the year was when I played Geary Claxton, who was going to Penn State to play. He was the big scorer and I was on the big team and we clashed and they said it was number one versus number two and everything like that and both of us kind of cancelled each other out of the game. I think we both ended up with about 9 points or something like that so, we didn’t get defended well and our team won by thirty points. “
