Once again, the Sonny Hill League Future Stars Tournament produced an exciting tournament. After winning the semifinals by a total of five points, the Rising Hill Rising Seniors and the Rasheed A. Wallace Foundation battled it out at Temple's McGonigle Hall this past Sunday. Six Garden State players were named to the 26-player All-Tournament Team.

In the semis, Sonny Hill edged Cecil Kirk from Baltimore, Md. with Georgetown-bound DaJuan Summers, #48 in the Class of 2006, 75-72, while Rasheed Wallace topped Team Philly with Villanova-bound Reggie Redding, no. 66 in this class, 57-55.

In the championship game, Sonny Hill topped Wallace 70-62. Ameer Ali, a 6-foot-5 swingman from Philadelphia's Luthern Christian, was named the tourney's Most Valuable Player. Jason Love of Wallace and Abington Friends H.S. received the Attitude / Sportsmanship citation. Neither player is presently ranked in the Scout.com Top 100.
