Zero Gravity - We Are United
We Are United prep is hitting the road again, this time New England-bound to face more stiff competition at the Zero Gravity prep classic.
No, Zero Gravity is not a nickname for the high-flying Jonathan Dunn (though we suppose it could be). The ZG Prep Classic is a large-scale annual prep hoops event outside of Boston that will give We Are United and its athletes yet another chance to shine.
A description of the event below was pulled from basketball.exposure.com:
“The ZG Prep Classic returns for the 2021-22 season. We are thrilled to have the event at the premier basketball facility in the Northeast, the beautiful Dana Barros Basketball Club. With over 60 top prep programs committed throughout North America, this year's Prep Classic is slated to be the biggest event in the country. Perennial NEPSAC powerhouses headline the event that will have college prospects that fit every program in America. A must-attend for everyone from High Majors to High Academic D3s. Schedule coming soon, stay tuned on @ZeroGravityBB on Twitter & Instagram to see program commitments and schedule announcements.”
Per the official schedule, We Are United is set to play on days 2 and 3 of the event:
Saturday, December 4th - 12:00 PM (EST) on court five vs. Speights Academy (FL)
Sunday, December 5th - 9:00 AM (EST) on court one vs. Canamera Prep (CAN)
Head Coach Rob Yanders says that his squad is excited to take to the road again. “There will be great prep schools there,” Yanders says. “We currently have a 3-1 in-season record, and we are ready to put that on the line. There is no team we are scared of.”
Coming off of an impressive showing in Atlanta facing professional Overtime Elite squads, Yanders confidence seems well warranted. Follow along with We Are United on Instagram and stay tuned right here at The Basketball Movement, home of We Are United prep.
