AMES, Iowa- There is no dispute that Kantrail Horton was a tough guy. With a body built more like a professional wrestler than a basketball player, the burly guard from Covington, Ga., was the cornerstone for Iowa State’s unprecedented success in men’s basketball from 2000-2001.
In his two seasons as a Cyclone after a couple of years in junior college, Horton demonstrated tenacity on the defensive end and his ability to hit the big shot paved way for
ISU to win back-to-back Big 12 titles.
“I’ve always been that type of player,” Horton said. “If one guy is the best, I would love to play against him and try to stop him. It was basically what my team needed, I guess. I gave whatever the team needed me to do.”
