The Hangar Basketball Association will host some of the best boys and girls boys basketball teams in Southern California at its facility in Hawthorne.

And North Torrance is among the teams participating.

Every weekend for the next eight weeks, teams will convene at the Hangar Athletic Xchange (3203 Jack Northrop Ave.) in Hawthorne in what is being described as an NCAA-style tournament. The league will hand out weekly MVP prizes and host all-star games at the end of the tournament.

The list of teams includes a veritable Who's Who from Southern California, including Compton, Windward, Taft, San Diego, Dorsey, Pasadena, West Valley, Compton/Centennial, Villa Park, LB Jordan, San Bernardino, Dominguez, Pasadena Muir, La Verne Lutheran, Riverside/King, Corona/Centennial, Hamilton, and Foothill among others.

Schedules of all the games will be posted at www.HAXLA.com. Maybe this will give North the push it needs for another run at another Pioneer League title.

Dave Thorpe was a self-proclaimed, slightly above average baseball player back in the day at Torrance's West High, who went on and had an unspectacular, injury-riddled stint as a third baseman at El Camino College. Trading bat for pen, Thorpe wrote sports for the Long Beach Union newspaper at Long Beach State University, then worked as the sports editor for the Palos Verdes Peninsula News for seven years before climbing down the Hill to the Daily Breeze, where he has been a sports writer covering local sports for more than two years.
