LeFlore is a top team in Mobile. Oak Hill, Montrose Christian and DeMatha are national programs and Fairfax is a power in California. I would think this was probably one of the best holiday tournaments going.
Who won the tournament? Wow, I've moved around so much I've officiated 3 out of those 4 teams. The ironic thing is the only one of those 4 I haven't officiated is now the closest (LeFlore is only 50 miles from me now).
