LANCASTER – Winter sports practice starts later this week, so in honor of that, here's some L-L League boys' basketball news for you …
HoopScoopOnline.com has released its extensive list of pre-season all-stars, covering the Philadelphia/Eastern Pennsylvania/Southern New Jersey area.
Several L-L League players made the list, including one player – McCaskey senior standout Devonne Pinkard – who made a pair of lists.
Check it out …
SEVENTH-TEAM ALL-AREA
Devonne Pinkard, McCaskey, 6-6 senior forward
TOP SENIORS IN THE AREA
18 – Devonne Pinkard, McCaskey
And this quote about Pinkard from Allen Rubin, who helped formulate the lists: “Pinkard has taken his game outside, and is now a big, long wing that can shoot the 3-pointer, put it on the floor and rebound. He also is good enough to be a steal at the mid-major level.”
