This year’s tour included UPS, Pacific Lu, George Fox, Lewis and Clark and Willamette. We were very fortunate to meet with the head and assistant coaches to tour their campuses and athletic facilities. The student-athletes were able to learn more about their schools and majors and interact with college coaches. We were happy to have players and parents from other AAU teams join our tour!

Seattle Select High Academic 17u team went 4-0 in the WCE NorCal Showcase in the Bay area last weekend. The team played great defense and team basketball. There were many college coaches and scouts at the games and the team created a lot of buzz. The next travel event will be to the Oregon High Academic Showcase May 25th at Lewis and Clark College. Following the one day showcase, all the Seattle Select teams will travel to Salem Oregon for the Memorial Day Tournament May 26-28th at the Hoop.
Chase Young took his 17u Seattle Select High Academic to the Bay to compete in the NorCal Showcase presented by Gerry Freitas and Ryan Silver. While there the team visited Cal Berkeley and St. Mary’s College and were able to get to know their campuses and walk around their gyms and sports facilities. Both colleges are highly ranked with Berkeley #21 in National Universities and St. Mary’s #9 in Regional Universities West.
This year’s tour of some of the NWC colleges is set for Friday, May 25th. So far the list of high academic colleges along our tour will be University of Puget Sound, Pacific Lutheran, George Fox, and Lewis and Clark. NW elite student-athletes can also opt to join portions of the trip if travel is a concern.
Last weekend coach Young took 14 elite student-athletes on a tour of 6 SCIAC (Souther California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference) schools in Los Angeles.
They followed up the tour with a 2 day WCE Spring High Academic Camp at Cerritos College where they were able to play in front of college coaching staffs from all over the county and learned valuable knowledge and tools to help in their direction towards playing college basketball.
The tour included Redlands, Claremont, Pomona, La Verne, Chapman, and Whittier where they met with head coaches and toured their campuses and athletic facilities.
