Two Loughlin students, Jayvaun Pinkston and Deron Lamb, were chosen to participate in the Right Bounce Top 60. Right Bounce picks the best eighth, ninth, and tenth grade basketball players from the entire Eastern region, which stretches from Ohio to Maine. The players sharpen and demonstrate their skills as they play against the best. Nike sponsored the event and it took place right here at Bishop Loughlin High School on September 15, 2007.

Jayvaun received the Most Valuable Player trophy and Deron was named an Elite Player. The day wasn't all basketball combat, however. There was an educational element to the day and three of Loughlin's seniors -- James Johnson, Devon Elliot, and Kevin Phillip -- helped develop and present it. They informed the younger players about the realities of sport scholarships and gave them tips from their personal experience on how to make sure you pass the academic requirements.

Our own coach Kahlid Green started the Right Bounce Top 60 demonstration games . Let's give him a big hand and let him now how proud we are to have him here at Loughlin.
