LA GRANGE, IL – The Pangos All-Midwest Frosh/Soph Camp wrapped up Sunday afternoon exactly the way most anticipated it would before it had even tipped off some 24 hours before:

The sophomore at Hamilton High in the Milwaukee suburb of Sussex picked up the overall Most Outstanding Player honor for event that was a showcase for some 200 or so players in attendance (the bulk of those coming from Illinois).

La Grange, IL – Six-foot-nine Patrick Baldwin Jr. demonstrated precisely Saturday at the Park District facility that he intends on collecting his second consecutive Most Outstanding Player honor for the Midwest version of the Pangos All-Frosh/Soph Camp.

Baldwin (Sussex, WI, Hamilton), making his third appearance at the Dinos Trigonis-fronted event, used his two camp games (with “Cincinnati”) to showcase the remarkable growth – literal and figurative – he has made as a player since he made his debut at the camp two years ago.

The son of the head coach at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee had a strong spring and summer on the grassroots circuit with the Milwaukee-based Phenom University 16s club program while also having a solid effort during the NBPA Top 100 Camp in Charlottesville, VA.

DALLAS – The Pangos All-South Frosh/Soph Camp ended up Sunday afternoon pretty much the say it began with its first game roughly 24 hours before – with Arthur Kaluma and K.J. Adams the best among the 260 or so players in attendance at the Drive Sports Facility.

Kaluma and Adams (PICTURED) scored 17 points and grabbed four rebounds apiece to help the squad wearing white jerseys cruise past the dark jersey crew, 92-67, in the Crème of the Crop Top 30 Game that wrapped up the Dinos Trigonis-fronted event that was once again an ideal showcase for the better Texas players from this coming season’s freshmen and sophomore classes.
