MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) - High school basketball teams from across the country will make their way to Myrtle Beach over the next few weeks to try to shoot their way to a title at the 40th annual Beach Ball Classic.
This first weekend is the girls’ tournament featuring 20 teams, considerably less than the 80 teams coordinators were expecting before the coronavirus. Executive Director John Rhodes thinks going on and having the tournament will help them get that number back up for next year.
