Watch Nathan Scheelhaase on ESPN Sunday Noon ET
August 29, 2008 9:22 AM
A decade ago, Nathan Scheelhaase and Blaine Dalton met for the first time on a basketball court. They were third-graders then.
Now they're both seniors and two of the best quarterbacks in Missouri. Dalton, No. 115 on the ESPNU 150 and the nation's No. 9 QB, plays for Blue Springs South. Scheelhaase, ESPNU's No. 29 QB, plays for Rockhurst High School in Kansas City, Mo.
The two will meet once again Sunday at Rockhurst (ESPN/ESPN360 12 p.m. ET) in a battle between the past two Missouri Class 6 state champions. It's definitely not the first time their paths have crossed since the first meeting all those years ago.
