Laney's Elijah Wilson joins Michael Jordan in record book

Posted Feb 14, 2012
It's not every night a high school basketball player can put his name in the same sentence as the great Michael Jordan, but that's exactly what happened last night at Michael Jordan Gymnasium at Laney High School when Elijah Wilson tied M.J.'s single-game scoring record. "I wasn't even counting my points," Wilson said. "They told me after the game that I tied with Jordan." (WWAYTV3.com)
