The coaches that were in attendance at this major prep school showcase included: Eastern Washington, Washington State, Southern Illinois, Barstow College, UNLV, California, Seattle U, Washington, Colorado State, Branch West, Boise State, Southern Utah, CSU Bakersfield, Las Vegas Prospects, and UCLA. ESPN.com covered this event and recognized a few standout players on its website, one of them being our very own Aamir Kelliehan. "Aamir Kelliehan is another unsigned 2010 prospect who should be getting looks. He is an aggressive scorer from the guard position. He has an explosive first step to beat his defender from triple threat or off the dribble. Kelliehan uses his body well to finish in the lane against bigger defenders and is capable of knocking down the 15-foot, pull-up jumper." Kelliehan averaged 23 points per game as Queen City Prep Academy came out of the tournament 3-1, defeating Impact Academy White, Impact Academy Blue and God's Academy. Queen City Prep came up short against Princeton Day in a very close match. # # # Queen City Prep Academy is a christian, college preparatory, boarding school that not only prepares basketball players to be successful college student athletes but helps all students to be successful college students .
