It’s time to preserve the rich history, legacy and tradition of high school athletes and their alumni.
Did you know? Out of 34,000 high school students in New York City annually, only 2.7% boys and 2.1% girls will make and play varsity basketball. The time has finally arrived to celebrate, recognize and showcase that history. After all, according to the NCAA only 3.2% and boys and girls basketball players will go on to play college basketball at any level. That means in that senior year, when that buzzer goes off and the clock shows 0:00 and the referee says, “Game Over,”, 97% of these players would have completed their amateur basketball career. It’s time to celebrate them for a job well done.
