<p>Our coverage of the 2023 class in the Pittsburgh area focuses attention on the AAU programs that participated in the 2022 Hoop Group Pitt Jam Fest. The next article focuses on the PK Flash 17U team. These guys performed well as usual at the Pitt Jam Fest showcasing their talents to all of the college coaches in attendance this past weekend. After talking with high school coaches, AAU coaches, college coaches, scouts, officials, and media members we here at Prep Hoops Pennsylvania have created a database of players and their AAU teams to provide information for any subscribers to our site.
