GRR: HS All-Stars
Forty-six boys select sides, most all-star teams, but some from sub-state regions and a couple representing regions crossing state borders, will play in seven Regional Cup Tournaments this coming weekend and next.
One of the most unknown teams in the South Regional Cup Tournament at the RAC in Charlotte, NC has to be Arkansas.
You might ask, fairly, how can a state that has exactly one high school team form a select side? Glad you asked.
The prevalence of Hawaiian players on women’s college teams has increased in the last couple of years, with programs like Notre Dame College and Lindenwood leading the recruitment effort. At the end of June, Hawaii will bring its all-star team to the mainland and join the Pacific Northwest Challenge, one of seven Regional Cup Tournaments occurring around the country this month.
This is an updated version of this article. The Great Northwest Challenge Regional Cup Tournament will kick off June 27 and conclude June 28 at the Hidden Creek Polo Fields in West Linn, Ore.
The 15th Annual Rocky Mountain Challenge, the USA’s longest-running high school all-star tournament, is set for June 20-21 at the Aurora Sports Park in Aurora, Colo.
Saturday the activities get started with the parade of teams led by a bagpiper at 9:30am, with the first kickoff at 10:00am.
