Oh what a night! On August 2nd, OC Elite Girls Basketball players were in for a treat. Not only did they get a chance to watch the adidas National High School players showcase their skills in a friendly scrimmage, but they also got to meet and great WNBA Superstar Candace Parker of the LA Sparks.
The event took place at Orange County ’s Hope International University . It was the last stop for the “Candace Parker Aces-Team” before their two week exibihition tour of Japan , where they will be playing Japanese professional and college teams. OC Elite’s Keiana Veines will be joining the Aces team next year, but was already practicing and staying with the team while they were getting ready for the trip.
Candace Parker, who was there to watch the team play and to wish the girls a successful and enjoyable trip, was welcomed with heartfelt applause and great enthusiasm by all of the OC Elite players and parents attending the showcase. During half time she met all the OC Elite players, signed their T-Shirts and took pictures with them.
It was a great night to host both Candace Parker and the "Aces Team". |
