The high school session in Chicago was definitely a main attraction. To see the size, skill, athleticism, from this group was impressive and many of them were young. Not many college programs pay attention to this area but there is talent here. Special thank to all the staff, trainers, and programs. Full Throttle Basketball, Next Level Hoops, Baylor Basketball, Mac Irvin Fire, all the parents and players.
