PBT Illinois Fall Open: Takeaways
September 23, 2024
This past weekend we hosted the PBT Illinois Fall Open at the Rantoul Family Sports Complex in Rantoul, IL. Eight teams competed in the event, seperated by an upperclass and underclass division. Throughout the two days, our staff was able to gather information about some of the top prospects from the tournament, and we compiled those videos into this takeaways story.
Wow Factor North National left the weekend winners in both divisions, as their 2027 & 2028 team's both won their respective divisons.
