RICK BOLUS’ 3rd ANNUAL HIGH POTENTIAL/BLUE-CHIP
2016 FALL SHOWCASE

LOUISVILLE (KY) GIRLS FALL SHOWCASE

Louisville Girls Fall Showcase

INTRODUCTION

Written by Rick Bolus

Exposure is the key for any player in this day and age to receive a college basketball scholarship. With cutbacks in staff and budget by colleges nationwide, and fewer days to evaluate players, college coaches overlook more and more deserving players every year.

With this being the case, I hope one will consider attending the 3rd Annual High Potential Girls Basketball Fall Exposure Showcase on September 24, 2016, at Bullitt Central High School in easy-to-reach Shepherdsville, KY, off Interstate 65 at exit 117 and just 17 miles south of Louisville, KY.

The showcase could well be the avenue for you to obtain a scholarship. Each participant will play in a total of 3 games during the day. There will be team practices, stations, and contests. With the exception of lunch, there is no dead time during the showcase, as players are occupied with basketball related activities at all times.

Over 500 college coaches nationwide representing all levels of play will be invited to attend the showcase. A Camp Internet Report will be made available on our webpage along with internet coverage on my blog at http://www.basketball-camp.net/about/blog and Ron Harrison’s blog at www.kyprephoops.com which has almost 5,000,000 hits along with Facebook and Twitter.  This showcase report will be emailed to over 500 select colleges across America.

Why pay $200 or more which most similar events charge when you can just pay $95 to attend the High Potential Girls Basketball Fall Exposure Showcase and get more bang for your buck.

There is a spot for you at the showcase whether you are looking to broaden your scholarship offers, get on the radar screens of college recruiters or just simply wanting to improve your game for the 2016-17 season.

Our  showcase could be the "difference maker" for a player to receive a college scholarship. Contact us for a free brochure or register online at www.basketball-camp.net (click on Louisville Girls Fall Showcase). Hope to see you on September 24.

TEAM COMPETITION

Written by Ron Harrison

 

There were eight teams in this event designated Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.  Each team played three games and participated in various skill competitions such as “cut-throat”, stations, and team competitions.  The winner of each game was awarded two points and the winners of the other competitions received one point.  These scores were totaled and in the event of a tie the team with the lowest total of points allowed in the three games was declared the winner.  Indiana and West Virginia each won all three of their games and totaled three points each in the other competitions and ended up with nine points each.  Indiana was declared the winner as a result of fewer total points allowed in the three games.  West Virginia was named the runner-up team.  This style was well received by the ladies and the competition was intense in all events.

This was an excellent one day event with some very talented ladies in attendance.  5-10 Sr. Taylor Drury Eastern Pekin IN was named Showcase MVP and is a versatile scorer who can get to the rim or hit the outside jumper.  5-4 Sr. Shila Calbert Nelson County Bardstown KY was named Showcase Runner-Up MVP and is a quick passing point guard with great court vision.  The Best Underclassman was 5-9 Jr. Alexis Nelson St. Francis Louisville KY gets to the rim and can score points in a hurry.  5-9 Fr.

Lauren Boblitt Anderson County Lawrenceburg KY plays tough inside and is developing perimeter skills, has an excellent upside.  5-5 So. Maddy Boyle Lincoln County Stanford KY is an excellent playmaker who shots the ball well.  5-5 Sr. Lauren Masden Bullitt East Mt.

5-11 Jr. Sierra Graham Bullitt Central Shepherdsville KY is a combo forward who can score and rebound.  5-4 So. Alyssa Howie Spencer County Taylorsville KY is a combo guard who can handle the ball and shoot.  6-0 So. Mackenzie Keelin Owensboro Catholic Owensboro KY is a versatile wing who can shoot the ball and runs the floor well.  5-11 So.

Tedeja Marshall North Hardin Radcliff KY is a diamond-in-the rough post player with an excellent upside.  5-8 Sr. Shelby Davis South Laurel London KY has solid skills and works hard to be a “lock down” defender.

 

The list does not stop here as there were several other players at all age levels who impressed today, I just mentioned a few.  The skills, attitudes, and work ethics were apparent as this was a very busy day and all the girls worked extremely hard.  Also, a shout out to the parents who are the unsung heroes at these events and I know from experience these bleacher seats get hard after a ten hour day.
