The same technology initially developed to train fighter pilots
on the cognitive, brain level was an integral part of the training for four
Indianapolis high school basketball teams this season -- Carmel, Franklin
Central, Indy Tech and Zionsville. The Basketball IntelliGym(TM) software
program, proven to improve real-time decision-making and execution for thousands
of basketball players, awarded two players on each team an IntelliGym
scholarship this season. Not surprisingly, all four teams had successful seasons
and, according to their coaches, the players training with the system showed
dramatic improvement. Mark Galloway, Head Coach, Carmel High School credits the
IntelliGym for a record-breaking season for his point guard who helped lead the
team to a 22-3 record this year including MIC Conference Champions and Sectional
Champions. "We benefited right away from this product," said Coach Galloway.
"Our point guard trained diligently, and as promised we saw great strides from
his play. He broke our single season and game assist records, earned 1st Team
All-State and Metro North Player of the Year honors and a scholarship to play at
Boston University." "Our player completed 8 training sessions at the beginning
of the season and his play early on was outstanding," admitted Coach John
Hamilton who led Indy Tech to improve upon their 10-10 record of a year ago to
post a 13-9 record and reach the semi-finals of the Sectional Tournament for the
first time in 15 years. "His reactions were quicker and he had some of his best
games early in the season including a pair of 25 point outings. It clearly
helped his court awareness and decision-making and helped our team come together
quicker than I had expected." Franklin Central head Coach Mark James, whose team
posted a 17-8 record and won the 4A Perry Meridian Sectional Championship
provided the IntelliGym to a freshman point guard on his JV squad and junior
point guard on the varsity squad. The frosh showed so much improvement during
the season that he joined the varsity team and started the last seven games of
the season. "The system definitely helped with their decision-making on the
court," said Coach James. "Our freshman committed only 27 turnovers in 25 games
and very few of them were decision-making in nature. I have no doubt that this
training helped him excel and fit in well when we called him up to play
varsity."
