The Wheeling Parks and Recreation Department has teamed up with the Highlands Sports Complex and Wheeling Park High School Basketball to host The Shootout in the Valley slated for June 18-19 at the Highlands Sports Complex, 225 McCormick Way, Triadelphia.

Wheeling’s Director of Parks & Recreation Rochelle Barry explained 16 high school boys basketball teams from throughout the region will be competing in the tournament.

“The three organizations had previously hosted their own version of this tournament, so we decided to partner and pull all of our resources to make an even better tournament experience,” she said, noting the group hopes to add a girls tournament to The Shootout in the Valley next year. “I’ve enjoyed working with Ricky Moore of the Highlands Sports Complex and Michael Jebbia and Ryan Young of the Wheeling Park High School basketball program to put this event together. JR Battista’s knowledge and efforts have also been invaluable. I’m looking forward to some good roundball competition this weekend.”

Barry said teams will play two games on Saturday and two games on Sunday. Saturday games will be played at 1 p.m., 2 p.m., 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. Sunday games will be at 11 a.m., noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m.
