Dave Nichols: Stars come out from across metro area and region for showcase

The event, featuring the Denny Humphrey Memorial Boys All-Star Game and the Jack Blair Memorial Girls All-Star Game, is March 17 at Lewis and Clark High School. The girls’ game is at 5:30 p.m. and the boys tip at 7:30.

The games will feature all-stars from the Greater Spokane League (“Metro”) against the best from the region’s smaller schools, North Idaho, the Mid-Columbia Conference and the Columbia Basin Big 9.

Each of the GSL and Great Northern League schools are represented between the four teams, and MVPs from more than a dozen leagues east of the Cascades dot the rosters.

The Boys Metro team with all the Greater Spokane League players is going to be really solid, but the Region team has some outstanding players as well (a bunch of Eastern Washington league MVPs in fact). Happy to hear that Ferris senior Zach Fleming will be taking part and looking forward to seeing how this one turns out.
