ST. GEORGE, UTAH – Jordan Ross put on a dazzling performance to lead his Top 30 Crème of the Crop squad to victory Sunday afternoon to wrap up the two-day, Pangos All-West Frosh/Soph Camp in the Net’s on Fire facility.

Ross (pictured) is a 6-foot-1 sophomore at Pleasant Grove – located about 270 miles north of St. George and also in Utah.

He scored 11 points with five rebounds and seven assists to dominate the contest for the white jersey-wearing squad in its 142-126 decision over its dark jersey counterpart.

ST. GEORGE, UTAH – The location may have changed by some 400 miles to the northeast.

But the first day of the Pangos All-West Frosh/Soph Camp, held at the Nets on Fire’s four-court facility, maintained the high-level of boys’ high school basketball players that the annual event normally showcases at Southern California sites.

The move, of course, was necessitated because of the California restrictions for indoor gathering and athletic competition in the current COVID-10 climate.

One of the highlights of Saturday’s action was a match-up of two of the better “big” prospects, regardless of class standing, in the west.

ST. GEORGE, UTAH – Two members apiece from the Classes of 2021 and ’22 shared the figurative “hardware” following the conclusion of the two-day, Full-Court Press All-West Camp Sunday afternoon in the Net’s on Fire facility.

Forwards Mouhamed Bbaye (C/O 2021) and Jeremiah Nyarko (C/O 2022) scored 14 points apiece to lead the white jerseys over their dark counterparts, 94-83, in the camp finale, the Top 30 All-Star Game, and earned co-Most Outstanding Player honors for the contest.

Bagging overall camp honors (three camp “league” games plus the all-star contest) were guards Collin Chandler (who demonstrated oh-so-clearly that he’s one of the top juniors, not just in the west but the entire country) and a future USC player, Reese Dixon-Waters.

GILBERT, Az. – The Washington Supreme players and coached boarded their Sunday evening Phoenix-to-Seattle flight with four End of Summer Showcase victories tucked securely in the overhead storage.

Coach Carl Howell’s club, after rolling past Vegas Elite (82-60), had to rally from a 19-point deficit at intermission and then needed a “sudden-victory” overtime to edge Gamepoint of San Diego, 57-55.

Reserve guard Jerry Hayes Jr. (South Hill, WA, Emerald Ridge) scored a layup for the win in an overtime period in which the first team to score picked up the victory at the Inspire Courts facility in this Phoenix suburb.
