Nike National Championships Game Schedule
For Pool Play & Championship Rounds--(July 29, 1998)

Again, a brief recap so you know what we're talking about: The Nike National Championships will be held in San Diego on the campus of USIU at the SportCenter. The tournament starts tomorrow, July 30, and continues through August 29. It is an invitation only tournament. It will feature 15 teams in four pools,

In Pool A, the top seeded team is NYC Riverside Church, No. 2 is Sports Express, No. 3 is Arizona Stars, and No. 4 is Belmont Shores BBall Club.

In Pool B, Bray Center is the No. 1 seeded team, No. 2 is Southern California All-Stars, No. 3 is Seattle Rotary Boys & Girls Club, and No. 4. is the Portland Legends.

In Pool C, the No. 1 team is Bloomington Red AAU, No. 2 is Illinois Warriors, No. 3 is High Five America, and No. 4 is the New Mexico Lobos.

In Pool D, the No. 1 team is the Houston Jaguars, No. 2 is Alabama Lasers, and No. 3 is QBL Lakewood (or maybe they'll be called USA Slam?)

Pool Play starts tomorrow, and because there are only 15 teams playing, the tournament will only utilize 2 of the 6 courts in this massive sports facility, so it will be pretty easy to watch, really watch, the games. Here's the Schedule:
