Wally Szczerbiak was born in Madrid, Spain, to Marilyn and Walt Szczerbiak, a former ABA player who helped lead Real Madrid to three FIBA European Champions Cup (now called EuroLeague) championships.

During his time with Real Madrid, the elder Szczerbiak set a Spanish League single-game scoring record with 65 points.

Wally Szczerbiak spent much of his childhood in Europe during his father's playing career, and he was taught to speak fluent Spanish and Italian.

1994

As a senior in the 1994–95 season, he averaged 36.6 points per game and 15.9 rebounds per game.

He was named the winner of the Richard Sangler Award as Nassau County's outstanding boys' basketball player.

Szczerbiak competed for the Long Island team in the 1994 Empire State Games.

Despite his outstanding high school statistics, the small size of Szczerbiak's school did not win him the attention of East Coast college coaches, and he went unrecruited.

During the fall of his high school senior year, Szczerbiak and his parents visited the Miami University campus in Oxford, Ohio.

The following Monday, despite Walt's wishes for his son to wait before making a decision, Szczerbiak called coach Herb Sendek and committed to play for Miami of Ohio.

In his first two seasons at Miami of Ohio, Szczerbiak averaged 8.0 and 12.8 points per game, respectively.

1997

As a junior in 1997–98, he burst onto the scene as one of college basketball's leading scorers, averaging 24.4 points per game and earning first-team All-MAC honors despite missing several games with a broken right wrist.

1999

In his senior season, Szczerbiak averaged 24.2 points per game and led the Redhawks to the Sweet 16 in the 1999 NCAA tournament as a #10 seed.

He followed that performance with 24 points in a second-round toppling of #2 seed Utah, leading the Redhawks to the Sweet 16.
