This is probably going to be the last year of May live period …

NCAA wants to & probably will move them to July only.

June will be adding another scholastic event as ncaa coaches prefer June scholastic events over AAU.

2026 MADE Hoops ⭐ First Team All-Americans

An absolute bucket. 🪣

Abdou Toure earns First Team honors after a historic season. The future Razorback graduates as Notre Dame West Haven’s all-time leading scorer (1,981 pts) while shooting a ridiculous 70% from the field this year. 🐗

[Al Carbone, SCC Commissioner @SCCcommissioner]

Real impacts to high school student athletes, but also opportunities for them to stay 4 years at HS, and then figure out next steps to better prepare.

[Mohamed @mcfNBA]

I don’t think Arkansas fans are ready for the level of talent they’re getting in Abdou Toure.

Such an absurd athlete with ridiculous defensive tools + play finishing skill. Toure will be stamped as a T10 guy for me in ‘27.

Now in his senior year, in the midst of his final swan song, @AbdouToure36 is leaving the state of Connecticut with something to remember him by.

Last week, he scored 28 points to lead @NDWHAthletics to their fifth consecutive @SCCcommissioner championship. Before he heads off to Fayetteville, Arkansas to do some seasonal work with @RazorbackMBB, he plans on leading the Green Knights to a third straight @ciacsports Division I state championship.

With how he has risen in the last couple of years from an unknown prospect to a top-100 player to now a top-25 player nationally, it’s safe to say that the future is bright for the 🇬🇳-American.

Arkansas commit Abdou Toure responded with 28 points and a W to “overrated” chants in last night’s SCC basketball championship 👀🔥

Toure’s Note Dame-West Haven (CT) beat Fairfield Prep (CT), 73-51, to capture the school’s 5th-straight SCC title 🏆

[John Pierson @JPPierson]

.@NDWHAthletics Abdou Toure is soaking in his final days as a high school #ctbb star. @CoachShea1 says the @RazorbackMBB recruit is the "best player to ever play in the SCC" @WTNH

[Dave's Joint @daves_joint]

Tonight’s tour stop at the M&T Bank Arena in the campus of @QuinnipiacU was a good matchup to see @NDWHAthletics and @ffldprepjesuits in action one last time in the @SCCcommissioner Tournament.

As always, there’s always great action in the Nutmeg State. Congrats to @CoachShea1 on their fifth consecutive conference championship. We definitely wish them the best of luck on another @ciacsports state title run.

Special thanks to the good folks at @SCCcommissioner for allowing us access to tonight’s game. Look out for our content at a later date.

5th straight SCC title for the @NDWHAthletics basketball team. The Green Knights put away Fairfield Prep, 73-51, behind 28 points from @AbdouToure36 #ctbb @CoachShea1 @WTNH

[Dave's Joint @daves_joint]

Tonight, our next tour stop takes us up the Metro-North New Haven Line to Hamden, Connecticut for the @SCCcommissioner championship game, which will be taking place at the M&T Bank Arena on the campus of @QuinnipiacU.

This title game will be between @ffldprepjesuits & the No. 1 team in the Nutmeg State, @NDWHAthletics. Tonight, the Green Knights aim for their fifth consecutive conference championship, while the Jesuits aim to win their first SCC title since 2016.

This will definitely be a goodie to watch up in CT.
