VTO Sports hosted their VTO Sports Elite 100 showcase at Irmo High School just outside of Columbia (SC) on Saturday March 25. The event had over 110 players registered from mainly South Carolina and a few other states represented to participate. Each player got quality teaching and techniques from former college/NFL players. The highlight of the event is the one-on-one competitions where the players can show off their talents.
VTO Sports recognizes a Top 5 and a MVP in each position. They also select special underclassmen as well. Those players get invites to the All-American Challenge to be held July 7-9 at West Cabarrus High School in Concord, NC.
Coach Vince Jacobs, National Camp Director:
“The VTO Elite 100 in Columbia was a solid camp we had 110 registered athletes. Irmo High School has a beautiful Stadium. VTO Sports would like say big thanks to Head Coach Aaron Brand. The South Carolina athletes represented well with solid talent and was competitive. The rain didn’t slow the athletes at all. I can’t wait to go back to SC in May for Charleston,SC Elite 100.”
