Here is a look at what some of the major MA and NH AAU programs will be doing:

BABC - The 6'8" Jake Layman (left) from King Phillips High School has shown himself to be an excellent division 1 prospect this Spring. Layman is also joined by 5'9" Jalen Brantley who has dazzeled people with his play this Spring.
