• Larry Fleming: Ex-Bruin in NCAA limelight

  Steve Prohm is enjoying the college basketball spotlight that’s shining on Murray State’s Racers, who upset Vanderbilt on Thursday in the NCAA tournament and will face Butler this afternoon at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., in a second-round matchup.
  Prohm, 35, a native of Vienna, Va., spent six years in Dalton and attended Northwest Whitfield High School, where he played basketball three years under coach Allen Carden. He was at Northwest from 1988-92 and was a self-proclaimed “average” player on good teams that came within a win of qualifying for the state tournament his junior and senior seasons. Losses to Cedartown and Carrollton kept the Bruins from advancing to the big stage in Georgia.
