Congrats to our HOF inductee Tayshaun Prince @memgrizz on being now part of @Hoophall with the 2008 USA Olympic Basketball Team. Only disappointment was our HOFer Marques Johnson @olskool888 not being elected as individual.

It was exciting to hear our Lifetime Service HOFer Violet Palmer @nbafirstlady being the TV referee expert on the @ABC @ncaawb @MarchMadnessWBB women 's basketball games. We will see her May 4 in Anaheim for her HOF induction.

How great is it that Cal State Dominguez Hills has both its women's team (tonight at 4 pm) and men's team (Saturday at 12 noon on CBS) in the Division II championship games. @TorosAthletics We wish both teams the best to go with @UCLAWBB tonight & @USCWBB tomorrow in Sweet 16.

Congrats to the Cal State Dominguez Hills men's and women's teams for reaching the Division 2 NCAA semi-finals and finals respectively with great wins. @TorosAthletics should be so proud of the accomplishments and best for 2 local titles.

Happy birthday to our charter HOF member Ann Meyers Drysdale @AnnMeyers who 47 years ago led @UCLAWBB to the 1978 AIAW title over Maryland to highlight a brilliant career where she was a 4-time All-American.

Excited our May 4 incoming HOFer Roy Hamilton was recognized for best regular season game of his @UCLAMBB career against Tennessee as part of the broadcast. Roy was with @CBSSports for many years for the BB March Madness.

Congrats to Roosevelt and HS superstar Brayden Burries @BraydenBurries on the BB State Championship along with Etiwanda & star guard Aliyahna Morris @_puff25 @CalWBBall getting a special player; great for SoCal BB and the future; also congrats to Sierra Canyon & San Gabriel Acad.

Our charity auction is May 4 for the SCBBHOF and an ideal gift would be a @huupeofficial system, but they won't email or call us back socalbbhof@gmail.com as we think we have the perfect audience to sell their products as our event is in Anaheim. Huupe is missing out on sales.
