LA VERNE, CALIFORNIA - One of the best high school basketball tournaments on the West Coast tipped off Thursday at Damien High School in La Verne, California — the Classic at Damien.

The event boasts eight divisions, 128 teams and 256 games over four days. The stretch of high-level hoops is highlighted by the Platinum Division, which includes top-ranked teams like St. John Bosco, Redondo Union, La Mirada, Santa Margarita, and Eastvale Roosevelt, which just won the Tarkanian Classic in Las Vegas before Christmas.

The top storylines from Day 1's action include a 55-point performance from Inglewood's Jason Crowe Jr. against Chatsworth Alijah Arenas ... and Redondo Union will take on La Mirada in a Day 2 showdown that could weigh heavily in the Open Division playoff picture.
