Peacemakers Stood Strong In AC!The 14 and Under Division had less off the court fire works but brought together some top teams for some great games. We had a new champion in the 14 and Under Division and some player movement that should make things interesting this spring and summer. Here is some inside info from Atlantic City.
Peacemakers Alive and Well!Early on rumors were swirling about the Peacemakers breaking up and we at Basketball Spotlight first would like to apologize for jumping the gun with the incorrect information. The Philly boys not only showed they are still a unit but also showed their mite by running through the tournament and taking on the crown. The have some serious size and the defensive mentality to punish many teams into submission. Basketball Spotlight will keep an eye on this group and keep you in tune their progress.
Team Nelson Battling Injuries!Team Nelson the #1 ranked team in the region lost two key players before the Atlantic City Showcase. Dajuan Drennon perhaps the best post player in the region is out for the year with a broken leg and sharp shooting guard Darius Robinson is out for 4 to 6 weeks with a broken wrist. TN is a very deep group but these loses will hurt anyone. Knowing this group they will find away to rebound for the MDC. Expect a deep run.
Foreman On The Move?DJ Foreman the talented guard from Spring Valley, NY started the year with the Trenton Hurricanes before leaving to play with the Playaz Basketball Club. Foreman seems to have made another move while showing up with the Westchester Hawks at the Atlantic City Showcase. DJ seemed to be at home with his new team putting up good numbers in a couple of their games.
