Miami to host High School All-American game
The BankUnited Center will host the 2009 McDonald’s High School All-American game, bringing talented high school players and television crews to campus.
The game, which began in 1977, brings together the best high school players in the country to participate in an all-star game. Women players began participating in the game in 2002.
Since 1978, only one team has won a national championship without having a McDonald’s High School All-American on their team (Maryland, 2002).
