We took in the inaugural two-day Pangos All-American Festival at AZ Compass Prep (Chandler, Ariz.) and came away with our top 12 performers among the four regional-based teams. The Pangos All-American Festival is a spinoff of both the annual Pangos All-American Camp and the regionally-based Fullcourt Press Frosh/Soph Camps with a format that brings together many of the nation’s top players regardless of class. The festival was created after COVID-19 cancelled this year’s Pangos All-American Camp that is normally held the first week of June every year and featured many of the nation’s top players in the 2021 class whom normally would have been in attendance at the camp.
Below is the performance-based Top 12 player rankings from the event, August 28-29.
