For anyone so inclined, these are the links for the 3SSB and EYBL streams. EYBL is a freebie. 3SSB is a bit of a screw job, to the tune of a $25 pass per day.

It’s sort of strangely configured. Scroll down past the standings.

Asa Newell’s 1Family program is playing the Pro 16/NXT event this weekend about 15 mins from me. Really happy about this one. Will definitely go watch him, probably Saturday. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Trent Sisley, Malachi Moreno and '25 E. J.  Walker some names I've already seen mentioned that we'll be specifically watching this weekend.  And by default, if we're watching Sisley, we're also watching Haralson.  And watching Moreno also means watching Bidunga, Perry, and '24 Colin White.  Normally this latter group would also include Raleigh Burgess but he's still out recovering from a broken leg.

Want to be clear these aren't the only kids we'll watch just the names that have been specifically mentioned thus far.
