Mark Eaton's Son

[XU 87]

I don't know about Drex Eaton, but Mark Eaton had a pretty interesting career. He did not play basketball in high school but played water polo. After high school, he went to auto mechanic school and became a mechanic. Some juco coach "discovered" Eaton while he was working as a mechanic and Eaton then went to JUCO. He then went to UCLA, playing 42 minutes his senior year. He was drafted in the 4th round and the rest, as they say, is history.

Thanks for vote of confidence XuHank! Drex Eaton is on the downlow. He ain't hitting the radar. Just you wait! Yea, Clyde's son is pretty darn good. I'm in Dallas now and I've been reading all the hype. By the way, anyone know if Ybot Mattson is playing hoops anymore at O'Connor. Also, is the red house still full of cockroachs in the basement? -E

Mattson is an O'Connor legend. I've heard rumors that he still plays some club ball in and around town.

Not sure about the cockroaches. Be careful they don't follow you home.
