Double double are still pretty special at the high school level.  Extremely rare is the 20-20 club, 20 points and 20 rebounds.  One step further is the 30-20 game.  Langdon Hatton is now a member of that club.  In a win over Madison, the 6'10" senior center, who is headed to William & Mary, dominated, with 33 points and 22 rebounds.  The production makes Langdon Hatton the Courtside Indiana Player of the Week for the week of January 25-January 30.
