Mayo leads AAU team to national title

[Administrator]

Add a national AAU championship to the legend of O.J. Mayo.

Mayo, the 14-year-old Tri-State basketball phenom, led the Ohio D-1 Greyhounds to the Age 13-Under/7th Grade AAU National Boys Championship last weekend in Memphis, Tenn. Mayo is eligible for a 13-Under team because he was held back a year in school.

He scored 35 points in just three quarters of the championship game, an 87-46 drubbing of the Orlando Raptors.

The Cincinnati-based Greyhounds whipped through the tournament with an 8-0 record. The average margin of victory was 42 points.

"We wanted to let people know we’re the greatest (13-Under) team ever," Mayo told The Commercial Appeal newspaper in Memphis.

At age 14 this kid gets more publicity than LeBron James. If he does indeed go to college, hope he decides UK because there is a really strong chance.

He would be another great addition to the 2004 class!

If this kid is as good as James, NO college will get him because NBA scouts will be at his door like WOLVES telling him he is the best thing since shirt pockets, saying how GREAT he will be. Why heck kid, you are ALREADY better than Kobe was when HE was a Senior, so WHY wait until then, come aboard right now ands skip your senior season. Isn't that what it is getting to anyway with 11 year olds getting scholorship offers as well as 14 year olds? Boys and girls, this is scaring the heck out of me.

Wow! That's what you call destroying your opponents.
