INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) – The city of Indianapolis is well represented this weekend at the Final Four in Minneapolis.

Former star Ben Davis, Aaron Henry, begins his career in the state of Michigan.

He started the season as a bench player but was inserted into the starting lineup after injuries affected the Spartans.

The 6 "striker made a leap forward at the NCAA tournament, scoring the highest of his career with 20 points against LSU at Sweet 16.

"He's excited, he wants to show his coaches here in Indiana, and show his coaches from MSU that he can do it," said Aaron's mother, Nicola Henry. "That he can be there for them and for the team, I'm proud of him for that."

Then against Duke, Henry played 38 minutes to help Sparty upset Zion Williamson and the Blue Devils.

"I want to say that for a child, fulfilling his dream of playing college basketball is a goal in itself," said Aaron's father, James Henry. "Participating in the NCAA Tournament is wonderful, you think of all the schools in the country trying to get to where it is, what are the chances of success"

Lawrence Central, alum and Mr. Basketball 2016, Kyle Guy, coached Virginia to win 63-62 against Auburn on Saturday afternoon.

Guy scored six points in the final seven seconds of the game to send the Cavaliers to the national championship game.
