Rick Bolus Recruiting Service took in the action Saturday and made the following observations which he posted on his blog.  I believe most of these players were in the 11th Grade Division.

 

 

Saturday, I took in the 3 Stripes Memorial Day Cardinal Classic at Mid America in Louisville, KY. Below were the top college prospects for the 2016-17 season based on college potential.
