Rockfish Spring League Schedule
For This Weekend--(Mar. 13, 2001)

The Rockfish Spring League will once again happen this weekend at Los Angeles City College.  LACC is a one-court facility, which means that there will only be one game at a time, and it's pretty easy to focus on who is playing and who isn't.   Games will run all day Saturday, March 17,  and all day Sunday, March 18.  The schedule on Saturday will conflict with the State Championship Finals up in Sacramento at the Arco Arena, but only minimally since there are only a handful of players in the State Tournament still.  The major calendaring conflict which will have a lot of guys running back and forth between LACC and Cal State Dominguez Hills both days will be the Double Pump Discovery Shootout featuring underclassmen and seniors (and there's even a separate JC event at CSUDH).  Sunday will also be even more interesting, given that in addition to the RSL and Double Pump event, Dinos Trigonis will be running his own Fullcourt Press Spring League as well. . . sheeesh.

LACC is located at 855 North Vermont Avenue, just south of Santa Monica Blvd.  The easiest way to get there is to take the Hollywood Freeway (the 101), and exit at Vermont and head north.  Just before you get to Santa Monica Blvd., you'll see the running track and athletic field to your left on the west side of Vermont.   Turn left at the Metro Station. The gym is located right off the running track, and you can't miss it.
