WINONA LAKE – The world-famous Harlem Globetrotters razzled and dazzled across the court of Grace College’s Manahan Orthopaedic Capital Center on Wednesday night, making their first appearance at Grace five years. The Globetrotters entertained an estimated crowd of 1,650, displaying their universally recognized flair and style on the hardwood. The Globetrotters made a stop in Kosciusko County as part of their 90th Anniversary World Tour. “We thoroughly enjoyed hosting the Globetrotters tonight,” said Grace College Athletic Director Chad Briscoe. “They bring a world-class style of family entertainment, and we were thrilled to bring them back to the Winona Lake area.” The Globetrotters’ star-studded cast included the likes of Ant Atkinson, Thunder Law, and the 7-foot-4 Stretch. Spectators were treated to a number of thunderous alley-oop dunks and several series of dribbling wizardry that gave fans both young and old a night to remember. The Globetrotters are dedicating their season to the memory of former team members Meadowlark Lemon and Marques Haynes. Lemon passed away last month, while Haynes died in May. The Globetrotters will play Saturday at the University of Notre Dame.
