Posted on 12. Feb, 2010 by Nolan Shulman in High School, Tournaments
Last night the dreams of 24 high school players were fulfilled as the rosters for this years McDonald's All-American game were announced. All 24 kids selected were extremely deserving of the honor, as they've all had illustrious high school careers and been terrific ambassadors to the high school game. This years game will take place at The Ohio State University on March 31. For Jared Sullinger and Deshaun Thomas it will be a pseudo home game and a chance to dazzle their future supporters.
Last year was high scoring affair which saw the East come away victorious 113- 110 and Derrick Favors earning MVP honors. The Georgia Tech big man had 19 points on 9-13 shooting while pulling down 8 rebounds. From an entertainment standpoint, this years class will have to put on a heck of a show to top it.
