Yeah does anyone have a roster of who is playing? I would like to know. I don't think they have ever had any Cleveland girls play in this game. It would be nice to see how their skills match up with the other girls from this area. Clevelandblueraiderfan- wouldn't you like to see Kerri Simpson, and Kenydall Edwards play in this game?

Yeah...I was there for that one too. I wish they had this type of game when I was in high school. It gives these kids one last time to play with people that they might have wanted to play against all season long, but didn't get the opportunity. From my encounters, the players selected really look forward to getting that letter in the mail inviting them to play in the game. Its not the McDonalds game, but for some of these kids....its realistically what they had their sights on during their high school careers.

I agree with tfyrams. Who else is doing this in the community? I know these guys don't personally getting any financial gain from this event, as all the money goes back into having the game the following year. I have also supported this game for the last four years, and I am going again this year. You would be surprised how many kids, boys and girls sign some sort of scholarship from this game. I believe it is a GREAT idea, and they should keep up the good work. As for the dunk contest being in the middle of the boys game, it gives the boys time to warm up.

Game is tomorrow night. This will be fun. I don't know if Red Bank has ever had anything this exciting.

Yeah I wish the game was tonight instead of next Friday. I am looking forward to seeing those rosters too.

I wish the game was tonight instead of next Friday. Let's get it!

I bet this is a knock-off of the Pre-Game Roundball Classic game. Imitators!!!!!

I would like to see that....good the have as much fan participation as you can. I like the idea, but that's just me. I would enter it!

I think there should be a contest like that as well. I heard they even have an official after party this year. Is that true, and if so where will it be held?

My guess is that they will go with someone that has some ties to McCallie. Maybe Reed Rawlings. Reed played at Samford, and I heard he is back in Chattanooga. I know he has been playing overseas, and in the NBDL. Another guy might be Kenny White, who went to McCallie but didn't graduate from there. He went to Oak Hill Academy with his twin brother Kevin White. He then went on to play at UNC, under Dean Smith and Bill Gutheridge's teachings. He has been partly responsible with Coach Terrie Parks in helping turn Tyner Academy's girls program around. Maybe they will go with someone on the inside. You know with these private schools, they are usually going to stick close to home, and they will be very quiet about it. Maybe they might surprise us all and go Austin Clark????????

Okay...why wouldn't their college coaches want them to play in this game. That is ridiculous to me. If they were invited to the McDonalds All-American game, do you think the coach would tell them not to play in that as well? Not trying to compare this game to the McDonalds game...let's get that clear. Its the last time they get to suit up for one last time in front of their family and friends, because most of these kids never know when their last game is going to be, because they lose in the tournament unexpectantly, but this, they know will be their last game. They can go out and have some fun. I say go for it ladies....if you are listening (with your college coaches blessing of course). Does anyone else feel the same way I do?

Hey I saw where there is a Slam Dunk contest. Do you think Chattanooga will ever have a girl enter the slam dunk contest ala Candance Parker? If a girl could dunk, do you think the organizers would let her in it?

Who else should be playing in this game that is not listed yet? What about that kid from Howard is he a junior or a senior?

I hear what you are saying doc6...what does that stand for anyway? I just think Moore and his staff should do a better job of protecting your backyard....its kind of like protecting your homecourt. Who ever heard of a guy going to get gas, when he has a full tank? What a minute, maybe its like a guy who has a free Benz sitting in his driveway, but he decides to go out, and pay to buy a Buick. Doesn't make much sense how you look at it.
