The Basketball Spotlight circuit is set to begin once again and we are excited. We would like to start off with our preseason Top 10 for each grade level. We definitely understand that it is still early so some player movement can change things a little.
Basketball Spotlight Preseason 6th Grade Top 10
1. KSK: Yes KSK checks in at our #1 spot. They have made some serious off season acquisitions which should make them an elite team in the region. They have a great chance of chasing down back to back banners. We will get our first look at them during the Tip Off Classic.
2. Gauchos: The Choz were one of the most feared teams in the region last year. They always have some good talent especially in the back court. I’m definitely anxious to watch them perform.
3. Team Glory: TG came up short at the Grand Finale last year and will be looking to make a return. They have some of the top talent on the East Coast so they should be ready.
4. Leesburg Academy: After some Spotlight experience Leesburg finished #7 in the country and should have some more noise to make this year. Hopefully we will get a look at them early.
5. Nations Basketball Academy: These boys made a run to the Grand Finale finals last year and return some of the best talent in the region. This year they won’t be able to sneak up on any squads. Everyone will be geared to come after them.
6. Team Takeover: TT found their groove during the spring last year. They are still in search of their first Spotlight banner. Maybe it will happen this season.
7. RIP City: RC will be looking to return their program back to that national rep they had a couple years back. They definitely have the talent to get it done.
8. Team DEMI: The boys from Massachusetts have a chance to make a dent in this wide open field. We will see them at the Tip Off Classic.
9. Team Phenom: This group started off with a spark last season and then sort of faded down the stretch. Now we will be looking to see if they can return to form.
10. Team Final: I’m hearing this group is putting together some good talent. It will be their job to keep the legacy going.
