The AmeriServ Senior Hoops Showcase, which is hosted by The Tribune-Democrat, takes place March 30 with a girls' and boys' game beginning at 1 p.m. at the Pitt-Johnstown Sports Center.
What makes this event unique is that every player selected comes from a school inside The T-D coverage area.
And this year's showcase is shaping up to be a memorable one as the majority of the area's top players have confirmed their intentions to participate.
Over the next few days, rosters for the teams will be released - starting with the North Boys.
