The
field is now set for the first ever Buckeye Prep Summer Showdown! Scheduled to
run in conjunction with the NYBL Finals this weekend at the USA Sports Academy
in Columbus, the Summer Showdown has attracted the best 7th grade
teams in the state for one final showdown before the end of the season. The tournament
format is a little unique, as each of the 4 pools are super pools, meaning all
4 teams in each pool will advance to single elimination bracket play beginning
Saturday night.
The
field will include all but 2 of Buckeye Prep’s top 10 ranked teams, but will
also host teams from Michigan and South Carolina for a different flavor. Both
of the recent Ohio AAU District champions will hook up Saturday afternoon for
ultimate bragging rights. If you’re in town and want to see some of Ohio’s and
the country’s best young talent, you might want to make your way over to the
USA Sports Academy to catch some of the action!
