Thank you to my co-chair Rich Napolitano. Nobody knows the amount of time he puts in from January to December to pull off this tourney. I know Andrew Chaban gets a kick out of our back and forth relationship but there is no one other than the Red Storm that I would ride with.

Thank you to Committee member Andrew Chaban. The CEO of Princeton Properties spends 3 days getting food, opening doors, meeting with officials, getting ppl off the baseline. I can tell you there is not another CEO giving his time and effort like Andrew. Lucky to call him a friend

Thank you to committee member Casey Grange. Everyone knows Casey as the talented basketball coach ?administrator from Central Catholic but the work behind the scenes she does for this tourney is incredible. Her graphics on scheduling/ results etc are top notch. Thank you Casey

Thank you to the legendary official tourney photographer Bryan Thomas of Mobile Magic Sports. B spent all three days snapping pics. The man is a talented artist and an even better person. B will be helping us put together a long overdue website. Keep being you B

Thank you to what I call the gymrats. The pure hoop fans that take in our tourney cause you love the game, our tourney and the kids who play the game. So great to reconnect with so many gymrats over the last three days. We will see you in 2026

Thank you to the fans that packed the Hammel and Lawler all three days. It is early but looking like numbers maybe an all time high over three days. Thank you for supporting not only your sons/daughters but also the spirit of the tourney
