    Talking about area Dunker's.
    1.Rigo- I am to young to remenber but I heard he was great.
    2.Sal Dominguez- nobody dunked harder than he did.
    3. Paul Neal- Seeing him dunk recently at his old age (hahaha) I saw him dunk over a very prominent player in the valley who went Divison 1, all I can say is wow.
    3. Danny Singh- had some amazings dunks, there was one vs East Boston a couple years back, wow.
    4. Lightfoot-Taylor- The areas highest leaper since prob Paul Neal- This guy really got up almost put his elbow next to the rim, it helps that he was 6-5 but man can he jump, to bad he did not have the basketball IQ to go along with the athletic ability.
    5.Burgos- This kid can jump, but does not dunk with the powe that Singh did.
    6. Hazelton, Cruz, Gonzalez all this guys dunk consistently in games but did not do it with style, your old basic soft dunk, Hazelton arguably the best player in the area was smooth and when he dunked he did not bring the roof down, excellent player but not a great dunker.
    5. Hazelton, Cruz, Gonzalez, from Lawrence

    I didn't write the story, but I have to say that I saw all the guys mentioned above, and I loved Sal Dominguez as a dunker.
    The second best "dunk" high school games in the region I've ever seen was Sal's Reggies team in the state tournament at beverly High against Anthony Taylor and North Cambridge Catholic. Had to be seven or eight dunks in the game, and Sal had one of the greatest missed tomahawk dunks ever.
    The best dunk game I've ever seen was the state tourney game in 1984 between Ramon Rivera's Lowell team and Don Bosco high with Shawn Hood, Chenault Terry and Co. The rims at riddick fieldhouse are still shaking from that one.
