The Missouri Basketball Coaches Association in corporation with Coach Norm Stewart is excited to roll out a new format for the 2016 Norm Stewart Classic to be held once again at Columbia College. We are looking for additional teams, both boys and girls, for this year’s event that will feature the first ever 48 Hours of High School Basketball! Competition will begin at 6:00 pm on Friday, December 2 and conclude at 6:00 pm on Sunday, December 4. All 24 games in the Classic will be live streamed on ESPN 3 through the Niles Media Group. The broadcasts will feature play-by-play and color analysis, as well as live interviews with coaches and other personnel associated with the Classic. The games will also remain in a library with ESPN 3 for teams and fans to re-watch the games in the days following the event. If interested, please contact Denny Hunt, at dennyhunt@mobca.org (# 417-849-4215) or David Egan at DEgan@cpsk12.org.
