Bowie High School senior point guard Trey Johnson will be playing in the 26th Annual Chicken Express All-Star Basketball Classic.
Johnson played sparingly this season, but contributed to Bowie finishing 25-10 overall. The Jackrabbits also won District 3A-9 and claimed bi-district and area championships during their playoff run.
The game will take place on Saturday at Mineral Wells High School. The girls’ game is set for 2 p.m. with the boys to follow at about 4 p.m.
Each player will be guaranteed four minutes of playing time per half.
Players were chosen from coaches nominations from 60 different schools in 14 counties surrounding Mineral Wells.
The admission is $5 for adults and $3 for children. Children up to four years old are admitted free.
There will be a 3-point shooting contest at halftime of both games, and Chicken Express will award a $1,000 scholarship to the winner of both the boys’ and girls’ contests.
Johnson will play on the same team as Lance Ewell from Brock, Lucas Simmons of Graford and Nick Wendt from Mineral Wells. The opposing team features Trey Gordon from Boyd, Quinten Tabor of Graford and Mineral Wells’ Biren Clardy. Read more in the mid-week News.
