Basketball Spotlight 11U Top 10 Presented By AGame Team Apparel


The 11U Division has a new #1 team and a squads moving up. This has been a very interesting year for this age group and should only get better. These rankings are just our opinion and should be taken as such.

Basketball Spotlight 11U Top 10 Presented By AGame Team Apparel

1. Riverside Hawks: RH took over the top spot after winning the Inaugural Baby Baller Bonanza and knocking off then #1 We Run in the semifinals. A deep run in the MDC might give them a #1 seed entering Summer Slam.

2. We Run: They fell short of capturing their first banner at the Baby Baller Bonanza. They have been in some wars with Riverside all season and might meet them again at the MDC or Summer Slam.

3. Maryland Spartans: MS has surfaced out of nowhere and if they perform very well at the MDC they can sneak into Summer Slam. They always seem to have good showings at the Spotlight.

4. Gauchos: The Choz have said they will be at the MDC and ready for some work. They still have a good chance of winning the Grand Champion trophy at Summer Slam. It will be interesting to see them in the fire again.

5. Long Island Lightning: LIL knocked off #1 Riverside to advance to the Metropolitan AAU Championship. They have put together and strong run this season.

6. T Town Ballers: T Town Ballers made it to the finals of the Baby Baller Bonanza and seem to keep climbing the ranking ladder. Can this hungry squad crash the Summer Slam party? We won’t know unless they make a deep run at the MDC.

7. Delaware Royalty: DR had AAU regionals during the Baby Baller Bonanza but they are still in Summer Slam range. A semifinal run might secure their spot. But this field is extremely deep.

8. Natural Ballers: NB had a tough time at the Baby Baller Bonanza but their early success has them in a position to reach Summer Slam. They must make some noise at the end of May to make it to the free Grand Champion event.

9. DC Assault: Assault has some new faces so it’s hard to place them in the correct spot. If we get a chance to watch them again they might have a great chance of moving up.

10. New Heights: NH is bringing up the rear and it would take a championship run at the MDC for them to reach Summer Slam. I like this bunch and think they can beat anyone at any time.
