Here is a link to a good article on 2 of NKY best players and their AAU team. I watched their games this weekend and this team has the potential to make a lot of noise this summer.

 

McGovney and Maniacci team up for AAU

Maniacci should benefit from McGovney's assist (drive and dish) propensity.

 

Louis will also benefit from the overall experience. He relied mostly on his size last year, but should add a toughness element by playing high-profile AAU ball this summer.

 

While McGovney is a newcomer to the Shining Stars program, he is not stranger to top echelon AAU basketball, having played for the Kentucky Elite for the past two seasons.

 

Any chance this team will meet up with the -17 Crons team somewhere down the road????

Glad (yet not surprised) that both are doing well.

 

Chad Schaefer is a really good coach.

Did get a chance to see the Crons and Bombers 17U teams play this weekend. They both look tough and with the NK players on the Shining Stars Schaefer doing well it should be a great season. can't wait.

The Shining Stars are playing in some of the high exposure events throughout the Midwest (Pittsburgh Jam Fest, King James, Adidas Invitational) and in Orlando for the Super Showcase and Nationals. If Crons are entered in any of those, there is certainly a chance of a matchup.

The Shining Star team is playing a different type schedule geared more for exposure. In addition to the N Ky contingent they have some high profile players (mid major D1) on their roster. CRONS has some nice players but the Bearcat Classic is not at the same level.

I do hope they meet up with the bombers or the crons this summer. They might just get beat.

Will they be all playing in the KY State AAU tournament in May?

They are an Ohio based team so will be playing in the OH State AAU 6/1-6/3.

They might as anything can happen on any given day but if your thinking is that these teams rosters are created equal that would be a mistake.

Who is this Chad Schaefer? I tried looking him up but couldn't find any info.
