Heart of Texas Showcase Images

Our content team was locked and loaded this weekend to capture some of the special moments during the Heart of Texas Showcase.

As always, we want to say THANK YOU to all of the teams, players, coaches, parents, friends, families, and fans who made this event great. We are very proud of the weekend. The credit always goes to the participants and the people who came together to share the time in the gym. We are very proud of our PREMIER BASKETBALL TEAM and we truly believe they are the best in the business. A lot of behind the scenes work goes into these events and our director of operations, site coordinators, coordinator of officials, table workers, and court monitors all do an amazing job. JOEY SIMMONS has created an exeptional TEAM.
