WEST DEPTFORD, NJ – The Dinos Trigonis-fronted Pangos All-Frosh/Soph Camp fall tour came to another conclusion Sunday afternoon at the River Winds Center with its fourth stop that lured many of the very best players from among the sophomore (2020) and freshmen (’21) classes in the east.

The camp, and the Top 30 All-Star game, was highlighted by the presence of two of the best sophomore guards in the east – and beyond – in Posh Alexander and Marcus Dockery, based in the Bronx and Washington, DC, respectively.

WEST DEPTFORD, NJ – Marcus Dockery got in front of the storm (due to hit the region Sunday) by about 24 hours Saturday afternoon and evening in the River Winds Community Center.

Among those are sophomores from long-time Public League powers Whitney Young (guard Tyler Beard), Simeon (forward Sincere Callwood) and Morgan Park (guard Adam Miller), along with a Simeon freshman (guard Ahmad Bynum).

But the other 14 were scattered from among seven other states: Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Nebraska and Wisconsin.

LA GRANGE, IL – Saturday’s Day I of the “Midwest” stop on the Pangos All-Frosh/Soph Camp circuit put a nifty bunch of sophomores and freshmen – as well as one eighth-grader who quickly demonstrated he was worthy of his pre-camp hype – on display at the Park District Sports facility in this Chicago suburb.

Where to begin?

OK, let’s go with Patrick Baldwin Jr. (Milwaukee Hamilton), a who made a strong impressive on those who watched him at the same event a year ago when he was a 6-foot-5 freshman.
