This week’s “Fab Five” features five former metro area basketball players who teamed up to give the North Dakota State College of Science men’s basketball team a successful season. Melvin Newbern Jr. (Robbinsdale Cooper), Johnnie Turner (Minneapolis South), Sam Baker (Benilde St. Margaret’s), Marquis Holloman (Minneapolis North), and Oman Oman (Austin), led the Wildcats to a 26-7 record and the Region XIII championship.
