Battle For The City: 2027 Top Performers

These five freshman are players to keep an eye on next season

GROVE CITY, OH — The 8th annual 270 Hoops Battle For The City took place last Wednesday at Central Crossing. Top players from the Ohio Capital Conference went against the Central Ohio All-Stars, a collection of standouts from the various other area leagues. The 2027 class kicked things off as the OCC won a close and exciting 79-76 bout.

Nearly all of the top players in 270 Hoops history have participated in the Battle For The City at some point and often times, the top players from the freshman game turn into some of the region’s top players for the next three years.

There was plenty of widespread talent amongst both rosters, but below we highlight the five guys that made the strongest impression.
