3:00 pm CST - Georgia Metros Nike vs. Indiana Elite Bailey
This game will be a clash of the veterans (Georgia Metros) vs the youths (Indiana Elite Bailey). The Metros are led by a trio of ELITE 150 caliber prospects in the class of 2014. No. 85 Amber Campbell of Charleston, S.C., four-star guard Dekeiya Cohen of Charleston, S.C., and No. 34 Nasheema Oliver of Cordele, Ga., are the three players who combine to power the Metros this season and are uncommitted but heavily pursued by BCS schools in both the ACC and SEC.
Meanwhile Indiana Elite Bailey is loaded with talented prospects from the 2015 and 2016 classes, most notably would be class of 2015 guard and Notre Dame verbal commit Ali Patberg of Columbus, Ind., the No. 13 player in the ELITE 60. In addition to Patberg, Indiana Elite Bailey puts four-star prospects No. 47 Brittany Ward of Indianapolis, Ind., a 2015 prospect, and Lindsey Corsaro of Indianapolis, Ind., a 2016 ELITE 150 Watch List prospect. There should be 7 to 10 high major prospects in this game with another 10 lower-to-mid level Division I prospects mixed in.
Players to Watch
Dekieya Cohen (Georgia Metros)
Nashema Oliver (Georgia Metros)
Amber Campbell (Georgia Metros)

4:15 pm CST - New Jersey Demons vs Cal Sparks Gold
The marquee match up in this game is at the point guard and with two of the top seven point guards in the class of 2014 going head-to-head. We should be in for a treat with UCLA verbal commit Jordan Canada of Los Angeles, Calif., going toe-to-toe with Katelynn Flaherty of Point Pleasant, N.J. This will be a big test for both prospects as Canada, who is the higher ranked prospect, Flaherty is known as the more adept offensive talent. Flahertys ability to fuel an offensive attack with her perimeter shooting and crafty decision making will present a defensive challenge for Canada and the rest of the Cal Sparks team.
On the other side of the ball, Flaherty, who just matched up with the No. 1 player in the ELITE 100, Kelsey Mitchell of Cincinnati, Ohio, isnt known as an elite defender. Keeping Canada under tabs will be as key for her as it will be on the other side for Canada on Flaherty.
Players to Watch
Jordan Canada (Cal Sparks Gold)
Lajahnna Drummer (Cal Sparks Gold)
Imani Littleton (Cal Sparks Gold)
Katelynn Flaherty (NJ Demons)
Marina Mabrey (NJ Demons)
Taylor Rooks (NJ Demons)
5:30 pm - Boo Williams 16 vs. Miami Suns Fowles
Boo Williams is loaded this year with two highly regarded prospects in 2014 post The Miami Suns have a collection of talent that can compete with anyone. A number of elite athletes and a point guard in Shakoa Edwards of Boyton Beach, Fla.,who made a lot of noise at the first day of competition in Nashville fuel this team. This game is loaded with top caliber athletes and could be a bit of a defensive battle, especially with Beatrice Mompremier, a 6-4 post from Miami, Fla., matching up with White inside. Players to Watch Jatarie White (Boo Williams) Cy-Fair is here without its top rated prospect, No. 6 Ariel Atkins of Duncanville, Texas. Atkins is at the Boro but playing with her high school team for this event. Meanwhile Team Takeover is also missing a top rated prospect in 2014 point guard No. 23 Mikayla Venson of Arlington, Va. While both teams are missing elite prospects, there is still a ton of talent on both rosters. For Cy-Fair, they will turn to No. 11 Brooke McCarty of Houston, Texas, while team Takeover has a duo of highly rated 2014s in No. 20 Lynee Belton of Clinton, Md., and No. 29 Ariana Freeman of Fairfax, Va., a Louisville verbal commitment. Players to Watch Brooke McCarty (Cy-Fair) Tennessee Flight is the host team of the event and this year they find themselves in the marquee game of the night yet again. Mac Irvin Fire is loaded with ELITE 150 caliber talent. Michigan State verbal commitment Jasmine Lumpkin of Chicago, Ill., 2016 post Tori McCoy of Champaign, Ill., are just two of the many highly regarded prospects. The Flight, however, have nine four-star prospects on their roster including Tennessee verbal commitment Alexa Middleton of Murfreesboro, Tenn., and Kentucky verbal Jaycee Coe of Cookeville, Kent., the Flight also have five star 2016 point guard Crystal Dangerfield of Murfreesboro, Tenn. This game will be loaded with talent and should be a battle worth sitting at home and watching. Players to Watch Taniya Page (Mac Irvin Fire)
