I know the McDonalds game is listed as starting in 1977, but there was another format earlier, west vs. east, McDonalds might not have been the sponsor.

Mabey we dont have the stats right on who has been selected in the past. Maurice Harper St. Marys also of St. Marys College fame made it in 1970 along with other EastBay selections. I know John Lambert from BHS made it in 1971. This game has been around for awhile. Harper’s year the game was played in Vegas. The entire west team stuffed warmups and Harper who was only 5’10 had to learn to stuff before the weekend.

Gordon is a lock. Bird is 50/50 (east coast bias) and Lee is a long shot at best. Lee may be worthy but doesn’t have the 3-4 year resume that all the players that will make that team will have. Not a knock on him you are talking about the entire country so to have even two from the same state is a big deal.

The Bay Area will likely have at least one girls selection tomorrow, too.
