Congratulations to Jamine Lytle for being selected to the Eastern Conference All-Star Team at the Rose Classic Basketball Tournament in Brooklyn. Jasmine has been a versatile post player with the Defenders for the past 2 years. Now in her third season with the program she is being asked to play three positions (3, 4, 5) and has responded with her best season of her career. Only a sophomore at New Brunswick High School in New Jersey she was very excited to learn the news late last night (5/4/09). A lot of the credit for her success this season must be given the hard work she put in over the past 2 years with her personal trainer, Q James (BBallLife.com) and his player development program.
The All-Star game will be played at 12 noon on Sunday, 5/7, at JHS 113, 300 Adelphi Street, Brooklyn NY.
