The 6th Grade Division of the Spotlight circuit is turning into one of the most exciting. These youngsters have been getting busy heavy on the floor. Here is our 1st Quarter Report.
6th Grade 1st Quarter Report
Team To Beat: Team IZOD
Team IZOD squad has jump out as the team to beat. They ran through the Tip Off Classic in impressive fashion. They seem to have all the pieces to make a successful run to the Grand Finale crown and AAU National Championship. They are currently on a mission.
Surprise Team: Team First
Team First made a championship run in their Spotlight debut. They knocked off some pretty good teams in the process. Now they must be able to stay afloat as the circuit only gets stronger.
M.I.A. Team: Team Nelson
TN won’t be making their Spotlight debut until the MLK Classic. They are the defending Grand Finale champs so they should be ready to go. We will be taking a good look at this bunch.
Darkhorse: ETU Select
The PV group made a final four run at the Tip Off Classic but will be looking to make the championship run at the Clash. They had a good showing before running into that juggernaut named Team IZOD.
Player Of The Year Leader: AJ Hoggard (Team IZOD)
The POY of the Year race is very close so far but my scout tells me the Hoggard all around play makes him the leading candidate. Formerly known as “Mc Buckets” Hoggard has put away the scoring moniker to become the ultimate floor general. This unselfish nature will give this squad the best chance to win.
