The following pictures were taken during the Reebok Crossover High School Christmas Holiday Showcase in Hampton, VA. The showcase included local area high schools including Bethel High School, Hampton High School, I.C. Norcom High School, and Williamsburg Christian Academy. All of the pictures were taken during the Williamsburg Christian Academy/ Bethel High School game, which the Bethel Bruins won 60-56.

It was good to see basketball back in the Coliseum. Some of us can remember some of the bigger high school games (Hampton vs. Bethel) and even a few preseason NBA games taking place at the venue. It would be nice to see the local area schools hold more of their postseason tournaments there, as opposed to a schools’ gymnasium. Maybe I’m being a little nostalgic, but having more events at the Coliseum would seem to bring us back to the good ‘ol days just a bit!

Also, check out the lighting scheme of the Coliseum.
