Middle School Jr All American Camp
Queens, New York - Sorry for the delay, I lost and recovered my files to do this report. Joe Fenelon from NYG Hoops is known for bringing in some good Middle School talent from Coast to Coast. This is the second year for this event and let me tell you that it was a lot of heat in the building, no literally. St. John's Prep was where the it took, there girls team had a big game that morning which also made it quite good day for some all around good basketball in the Big Apple.
NYG HOOPS knows that timing is everything, and like last year he pick the perfect time to do this Middle School Jr All American which allow a few evaluators to take a look at some of the top kids throughout different parts of the state. Some kids were there to return to show how they have grown, there were a lot of new faces from last year which makes it more fun to see what level that they are on and to start a new following.
