Wade Schenck

Wade Schenck's only movie was "Hoosiers." He had no acting experience when he was cast by director David Anspaugh for the part of "Ollie," the quiet little substitute who wins the big game. His biggest challenge was to try to look like a mediocre basketball player. In reality he was a very good high school player. His biggest regret was the loss of several scenes with just he and Gene Hackman talking together in a cornfield. His sister played a cheerleader in the film. He is married and still lives in Hendricks County, Indiana. Show less «
