Sylmar "War On The Floor" Summer
Tourney Set For June 23-27--(Apr. 4, 2001)

It's that time of year again. . .time to get ready for the June high school tournament season, and once again, Bort Escoto, the head coach at Sylmar High School will be bringing us all one of the best high school tournaments of the early summer with his annual "War on the Floor".   Last year the tournament featured approximately 64 teams from all over SoCal and the Central Valley, and for those who were there, the Notre Dame v. Clovis West finals is one game that not a lot of people will soon forget.

The tournament will run this year from June 23-June 27 and will be played at various gyms in the West San Fernando Valley (e.g., Pierce College, Taft HS, Cleveland, etc).  Team entries must be received by May 18th.  The cost is just $290 for a four (4) game guarantee.  The tournament will again be managed by Dennis Magro, who does an excellent job and Dennis this year will also be coordinating hotel reservations for those teams coming in from out of town.

We have no idea who has already committed to the tournament, but it usually runs the gamut from Division V Southern Section teams all the way up to Division I powers, and features many LA City Section teams as well.  For further information please contact Sylmar Assistant Coach and Associate Tournament Director Charles White at 818-904-9344 or 818-774-6411.  If you want to just register, then send your checks made payable to "Sylmar High School Basketball" c/o Bort Escoto, 13050 Borden Avenue, Sylmar, CA 91342.  If you need hotel reservations, call Dennis Magro at 559-322-1069.

See you there.
