At least once every game, Diontay Ramon leaves Hawley boys basketball coach Mitch Ables shaking his head.

“He’s so explosive that sometimes when you’re watching him, he does something that’s just ridiculous,” Ables said. “Whether it’s a block or maybe he hits his head on the backboard. He hasn’t had many dunks this year, but he had a good one against Hamlin.”

Ramon is best known around the Big County for his football exploits. He caught 82 passes for 1,545 yards and 19 touchdowns for the Bearcats last fall and is currently deciding on where he’ll play the sport in college.
