    Not a player, but the Coleman (Texas) High School football team is coached by Rusty Buzzard.

    I remember covering a female cross-country runner whose last name was Kuntz (pronounced "koontz"). It's actually a not uncommon surname in my part of the world.

    Went to high school with a kid named Dick Wilcox, Jr.

    That he pitched for Morehead State qualifies as triple (or quadruple?) entendre.

    There's a football player around here named Furious Bradley, which has gotta be fun ...

    Teacher: What's your name?
    Furious: I'm Furious.
    Teacher: Easy, there. I just asked what your name was.

    William Bills (Joliet hoops)
    Joey Kielbasa (top-ranked wrestler in IL somewhere)

    In Wisconsin boys basketball, it's got to be Madison East's Nimrod Hilliard IV

    Too bad he doesn't attend Watersmeet (Mich.) High School.

    Once covered a high school wrestler with the last name of Tampon. Certainly caught your attention when you saw the kid wearing his letterman's jacket with his name embroidered on the back.
