Summer officially started on Tuesday.
The summer travel season began a few days before that.
Now, it’s kicking into high gear.
We shared with you the rosters for Team Suffolk and Team Nassau earlier this week.
On Thursday, they played their first game in the Long Island Showcase at Dowling College. Suffolk won both the rising senior and risiing junior games. Nassau won the rising sophomore game.

One of the premier recruiting events of the summer, the Jake Reed Nike Blue Chip Camp, is under way, with action starting today.
Several players from the Hudson Valley/Long Island/Connecticut region impressive in Day 1.

There are plenty of travel tournaments this weekend.
Among them, the sixth annual Maverik Big Time Shootout at Mitchel Athletic Complex in Uniondale and the King of the Hill Tournament/Session II at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania.
Be sure to weigh in with any info/thoughts on events you’re attending.

Blue Chip 225 All-Star links: Hi all, not sure if this will work but got an email about Blue Chip 225 at Bryant all star games tonite online. Go to this link:
http://www.sportingnewsct.com/snct-channels/featured-broadcast/live-bc-lx/
and there will be password: 62811 – there is also a link to donwload the roster: http://www.bluechiplax.com/2011_senior_all_star_rosters.htm
Not sure how this will work if you weren’t on the email list so apologies ahead of time. Varsity game is at 830p, elite game is at 915- teams picked from the top 500 attending the camp so the email says. In my opinion this camp and Top 205 were the best, to my experience and my kid’s success at the next level.
