South Pittsburg makes their entrance on Saturday against Red Bank and Bradley. East Hamilton, Notre Dame, Baylor and Walker Valley play the late games that night..
The event will also feature several college prospects, including Boyd Buchanan’s Karson Gay who is one of the state’s highest rated recruits and a University of Virginia commitment. Rico Tremble from Red Bank, Kenzy Powell from McCallie and Trey McDonald from Baylor will also show why college recruiters are coming to the Scenic City in droves to watch them play. South Pittsburg will bring three-star defensive line and University of Tennessee commitment Gio Davis.
