    Rosters for the prestigious Alabama/Mississippi All-Star Basketball Classic Games have been announced by the Mississippi High School Activities Association and the “Southern Six” will be well represented in both contests.

    The 33rd annual affair, which features the top seniors in each state, will be played on Saturday, March 11th in Mobile, Alabama.

    Locally, four players from our coverage area of the “Southern Six” were selected for each contest, and Biloxi and Gulfport combined to supply six of the eight.

    Lady Indian Shaneal Corpuz and Hancock’s Jenna Garriga were picked for the girls’ game, as was the Gulfport duo of twin sisters Micah O’Dell and Madison O’Dell.

    Moss Point’s Kedrick Osby, Gulfport’s Kylan Howze and the Biloxi dynamic duo of James Turner and Duran Parish were named to the boys’ squad.

    The girls’ game will tip off at Noon followed by the boys’ game at 2 p.m. Alabama leads the girls all-star series, 18-14, while Alabama’s boys lead 17-15.

The Alabama boys have won three out of the past four games while their female counterparts have won five straight over their Magnolia State rivals.
