Once again thank Coach Tyrone Slaughter, legend Rob Smith, Catrice Armstrong who's in charge of media, the sponsors for putting on a great event. Some thoughts:
Chicago Area went 0-5 against out of state teams but only two were blowouts. Curie (Chicago) and Whitney Young (Chicago) went down to the wire in their matchups. Mount Carmel (Chicago) led most of the game against Vashon (St Louis, MO). I said before the event this was the strongest contingent of out of state teams I've seen in the 12 years of the event. 6-16 in the history but playing these teams only makes the players better in the area.
