If you like seeing the area's top basketball players, don't miss the annual Dean Foods Classic, set for March 30-April 1.
But many of the state's best, which is a regularity are absent.
Only 15 teams are in this year's field, thanks in part to a new Milwaukee AAU tournament that has kept many of those area's kids closer to home.
But this area's top players are hanging around, and many of them are on the same team.
The Dean Foods' No. 1 seed is defending champ Randolph Boys Club, which includes, among others, Randolph senior Dan Tillema and Manitowoc Roncalli senior Greg Schrimpf.
The No. 2 seed is the Milwaukee Spartans, who include Dwight Byucks of Milwaukee Bay View and Dennis Thomas of Milwaukee Tech.
The top local team is fifth-seeded Plymouth Plumbing & Heating, which has these area all-stars: Andrew Zimmermann and Justin Wilterdink of Oostburg, TJ Kellner and Tom Eirich of Sheboygan North, Logan Dellger, Adam Doebert and Mike Flood of Plymouth, Christian Wolf of Kohler, Tyler Veldkamp of Sheboygan Christian and Mitch Schneider of New Holstein.
That team has a serious chance to be the first local team to contend for the Dean Foods championship in a long while.
