1998 dada Long Beach Fall Hoops
Classic Update--(August 28, 1998)

We just spoke with Dinos Trigonis who sent us some great material on the 1998 dada Long Beach Fall Hoops Classic, which is scheduled for Friday through Sunday, September 11-13, 1998 at Long Beach City College. The Tournament will feature more than 33 teams, all of "all-star" caliber, and it's also an NCAA sanctioned event, which is important because it takes place during the fall "open evaluation" period.

Here's a partial list of teams scheduled to be at the tournament (with the coach's name as well):
