Cali-Live in it's second year of existence was held in Roseville, CA at the Roebbelen Center. It was a great 3 days of hoops in Northern California. There were 168 teams mostly California. Arizona, Nevada, and Oregon had representation. We tried to see as many NorCal players as possible, I think we saw most, but missed seeing a few good ones.
