The 52nd annual Alleghany Highlands boys’ all-star basketball tournament was played this past weekend, March 17 and 18 at the Covington High School gymnasium.
When the day concluded, it was the Alleghany Blue all-stars that were victorious and crowned champions after defeating the Alleghany Red all-stars 47-30. It was a tightly contested contest before the Blue team started to pull away for the victory.
In the consolation game, the Covington all-stars erased an early deficit to win 43-39 in a thriller over the Bath County all-stars.
The event was once again a success that drew a good crowd and featured some of the best young, future up-and-coming players in the area.
