King James Classic Absolutely Loaded With Talent



 April 24, 2008
 
Everybody who is anybody in the state of Illinois with respect to the spring and summer traveling team circuit will be in attendance this weekend at the King James Shooting Stars Classic in Akron, OH.  The tournament begins on Friday night and runs through Sunday, with the championship games in all brackets being played on Sunday afternoon.

The open division, which is the premier division amongst 17-under competition, is absolutely stacked with many of the premier traveling teams from throughout the nation.  The first three pools are particularly worth paying attention to.  In Pool A, the Illinois Warriors will do battle against both the Atlanta Celtics and the Baltimore Stars, with the Warriors-Celtics matchup being a rematch of the championship game at last weekend's Real Deal On The Hill in Arkansas.

Meanwhile, the Illinois Wolves will face both The Family and the Carolina Celtics in Pool B, while the Mac Irvin Fire will take on the World Wide Renegades Orange and Team Stat in Pool C.  Other 17-under teams from Illinois that are competing in the open division include Full Package Athletics, Illinois Elite, Mean Streets, Rising Stars Gold, Team NLP, the Illinois Stars and the Chicago Express.

All in all, it should be a spectacular weekend of basketball.  Illinois Prep Bulls-eye will once again have the King James Shooting Stars Classic covered like a blanket and will provide the most in-depth, thorough and objective coverage that you won't get from any other scouting or recruiting service in Illinois.
