Steel City Shootout (NCAA certified event)

I took my AAU basketball team down to Pittsburgh this past weekend for a tournament.  We finished 0-4 but we played some of the best AAU team in the country.  We played a team from Canada and lost by 5 and the best team from Kentucky and lost by 4.  It was a great weekend for my team to improve and we competed very well.

My Dukies Fall in huge upset!!
The duke blue devils lose to Lehigh 75-70 in first round action on Friday March 16. This was an epic loss and they were not the only 2 seed to fall.  Missouri also fell to Norfolk State yesterday!
The blue devils were with out junior Ryan Kelly and seemed to not be playing as a team without him on the floor.  The game was actually great for non-BCS basketball schools and the cinderella story!!
