High School Hoops

http://www.jewishhoopsamerica.com/ (not to be confused with http://www.jewishhoopstars.org/) has ranked the top 25 Jewish high school teams.  Jewishhoopstars has a nice DVD you should check out. While this site is awesome and a great for the Jewish sports world, I would say there is a heavy NY bias. Shouldn’t there be consideration for cities that have the best high school basketball in the country…aka CHICAGO!Check out the rankings below.
