adidas Double Pump California
All-Star Classic This Saturday--(April 21, 1999)

This Saturday at 5:00 p.m and 7:00 p.m. , at Cal State Dominguez Hills, adidas and Double Pump will showcase some of California's top high school senior boys and girls players. This is the third year of the Double Pump California All-Star Classic, and there will be some excellent players virtually all of whom have signed with major Division I colleges. Tickets for both games (two for the price of one) will be $10.00 for open seating. Last year's games, especially the girls' All-California game with Michelle Greco, and the boys' game with Tony Bland, Brandon Granville, David Bluthenthal, Matt Barnes, and all the other senior talent was pretty memorable, and this year promises to be just as good, if not better.
