Remember North Myrtle Beach's Greg Wilson? How about St. James' Mike Hall? What about Loris' Patrick Jenkins? Or even Hemingway's Shaquille Wells or Suntrell Flagler?
The names probably sound familiar because they were notable area high school players in recent years. Well, they will all be back in town Jan. 22-23 for the First Annual Swanny’s Prep School Tourney.
The tournament is being run by Bret Swanson, who runs a basketball recruiting organizaiton called Swanny's Round Ball Review and operates JucoJunction.com, which is "the only website of its kind that covers strictly junior college basketball nationwide" and is part of the Rivals.com network, according to the tournament press release.
The 16-team tournament will be played at J Bryan Floyd Community Center in North Myrtle Beach. Gate prices will be $8 for the whole day and $12 for a two-day pass. High school and junior high students get in for $3 and those 12 and under are free.
Wilson plays for Adelphi Christian Academy out of Aiken, and Hall, Jenkins, Wells and Flagler play for Port City Prep out of North Charleston. The tournament will also, of course, include notable junior college players from all over the nation.
Games start at 1:45 p.m. Saturday and 9:30 a.m. Sunday on both courts at the facility.
