  • Nah'Shon 'Bones' Hyland turns tragedy into triumph, on the court and off

    5 FEB 2021 · Today’s conversation is with former St. George’s High School basketball standout and 2019 Delaware High School Player of the year Nah’Shon “Bones” Hyland, whose childhood nickname has now traveled with him to Richmond, Virginia, where he is a sophomore star on the Virginia Commonwealth University basketball team that competes in the Atlantic 10 Conference. I was fortunate to have a front row seat for many of his games as the play by play announcer for Fox Sports 1290, including a few 50-point performances and all four of his appearances in the state tournament semifinal games. But Bones’ story is about more than just the game he loves and the success he has had playing it. A family tragedy shortly after the end of his junior season in high school permanently changed the budding superstar’s outlook on family, the sport of basketball, and life. Here is my conversation with Bones Hyland. Whether you’re a sports fan or not, I believe you will find it … interesting and worth your time.

The purpose of these interviews is to introduce you, and in many cases me, to a person of interest.
That person might be famous, but more times than not won’t be. That person might be the main interest of the interview, or it might be a purpose they are very passionate about. But regardless of the who or the what, my one hope is that by the end of the conversation, you look back and say to yourself, “That was worth my time.” Thank YOU for your interest.
