13th Annual Nike Fairfax-Goodman
Summer Classic--(July 25, 1999)

The finals of the 13th Annual Fairfax-Goodman tournament will be held today; we didn't get to make it out to Fairfax yesterday because we were busy at the Best of Summer and the Slam N Jam NIT, but we know that at least as of Friday, Crossroads had beaten Fairfax, to advance to the quarterfinals; weknow that West Torrance beat Pasadena in the first round, and that Bellflower beat Westchester, so those two teams met on Friday at 9:00 p.m., but we didn't get the results, so all we know is that one of them ended up playing Crossroads in one of the semifinals;  in the other Fairfax, which defeated Penninsula on Thursday and then faced Muir on Friday, advanced while Mayfair beat La Canada in the first round on Thursday, but then lost to Redondo (which had beaten Sylmar in the first round), so it was Fairfax and Redondo in the other semifinal. Again, we have no idea who won, and which two teams will ultimately play today for the championship, but what the heck, it's high school hoops, summer version, so it will be fun anyway.  And there will still be a ton of college coaches out, particularly if Fairfax (Jason Morrissette, Fowzi Abdelsamad, Craig Smith, Evan Burns, etc) and Crossroads (Isaiah Fox) are still involved.

The final is today at 3:30 p.m.; the consolation final was at 11:00 a.m. today (Sunday).  If you can't make it out to Long Beach for the finals of the Slam N Jam or the Summer Showdown at Millikan, then we'd recommend checking this one out.   Here's what the bracket looked like at least as of Friday night:

See you there.
