The spring edition of the Delco Hoops Showcase takes place this weekend, with 32 teams — representing 31 schools — coming to Penncrest High School on Saturday for three games apiece. 

As usual, a good helping of the Central League is in attendance, along with other programs representing the Del-Val, Suburban One, Bicentennial, Ches-Mont, Pioneer Athletic and Philadelphia Public Leagues all in attendance. All teams will play in alternating sets, though some teams are playing three games and others just two. Games will start at 8 AM and conclude at 7 PM.
