WORLD HISTORY | August 31, 2023
The Background
The Yuba County Five were five friends from Yuba City and Marysville, California, most of whom were part of a program for men with various mental disabilities, and all played basketball together at the Yuba City Vocational Rehabilitation Center on a team called "The Gateway Gators". All of the five men lived with their families - who affectionally referred to the group as "The Boys", but with the exception of Gary Mathias, who suffered from schizophrenia but was not developmentally disabled.
