2015 Capital Classic..Derrickson and Govan selected to play

[Thomas]

They announced the rosters for the main game of the 2015 Capital Classic during the week. It will be played Friday April 24th at 8pm at Catholic University. Marcus Derrickson will play for the Capital All-Stars and Jessie Govan will play for the U.S. All-Stars. The Capital Classic website does not have M.Derrickson listed on the Capital All-Stars team, but their twitter page has him on the team. The organizers have gotten higher profile players on the U.S. team this year, including 2 McDonald All-Americans. The Capital Classic has lost some of it's luster through the years and it had become difficult for them to bring in a lot of big-name players for the U.S. team. I've posted the links and rosters down below.

That lineup of all guards better feed the big man!

A nice accomplishment for our recruits, will be interesting to see how they perform at that level.

Dozier just rubbing our noses in it...

I heard Derrickson wasn't going to play due to a conflict with classes at Brewster.

As the offseason is upon us, I find myself even more excited about these guys getting to the hilltop for the fall. Glad to see they're getting recognition--think they both have the potential to really elevate this team next season.
