At BABC we don’t publicize “offers”. Basically, since 1977, if you choose to be part of our family it is highly conclusive that you will have a future in NCAA D1 MBB (check our alumni list). We feel it is private matter between School/Family.

It is essential that ALL come to terms with the fact that sport is a recreational,non-essential portion of society. Fretting over missing out on attending a ball game decries the urgency in trying to eliminate a scourge, pandemic that threatens lives.
