Sauk Valley Predators News Release
Basketball players ranging from 5th through 12th grade participated in several breakout sessions for the 1st annual Sauk Valley Predators basketball camp. Over 180 players registered from Sterling, Rock Falls, Dixon, Morrison, Amboy, Lanark, Milledgeville, Chadwick, Freeport and Winnebego. The camp was led by Predators head coach Greg Ktistou and asst. coach Kirk Engelkens. Nine out of the twelve team players that assisted the coaches were Devan Bawinkle, Willie Veasley, Carlton Fay, Jeremiah Box, Steve Djourkovic, Elliot Englemann, Carl Hipp, Antwon Harris and Shelton Jackson. "I couldn't tell who was happier by looking at the faces, the Predator players or the kids attending the camp, they all had huge smiles on their faces throughout the day" stated Brad Grenoble, owner and GM of the Predators team.
Each registered youth athlete received an orange 2011 Sauk Valley Predators basketball camp t-shirt at the beginning of the session. Once their session was complete they were eligible to have their t-shirt signed by all the players and coaches. The smiles on all the athlete's faces were priceless, and several participants asked for pictures with their favorite players afterwards.
