					  <description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; A handful of former local high school athletes are sitting on ASU men's and women's basketball rosters, enjoying the ride to national prominence for both programs.&#160;&#160; The Nov. 17 regional cover of&#160;the Sports Illustrated College Basketball Preview features Sun Devils Briann January and James Harden.&#160; Harden is an All-America candidate who averaged 17.8 pts last year as a freshman, and January is a projected WNBA draft pick.&#160; SI ranks the men's squad 16th nationally, and the women 15th.&#160;&#160;&#160; The men's team, which opened its season with a convincing 80-64 win over Mississippi State, has included a quartet of home-grown players in its building plans for the future of a program that won 21 games last season,&#160;if you include a&#160;couple in the pre-season NIT.&#160; Ty Abbott is a sophomore guard from Desert Visa HS, Trent Anderson is a redshirt freshman from Ironwood Ridge HS that plays forward, and Taylor Rohde and Stephen Rogers are stepping right from high school onto the college hardwood this year.&#160; Both freshmen are&#160;forwards, Rohde from Pinnacle HS and Rogers from Mountain View HS.&#160;&#160;&#160; ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Governor Janet Napolitano headlined a list of dignitaries and sports celebrities who gathered on the Senate lawn in Phoenix to honor high school basketball championship teams from around the state.&#8220;You are all very special people, blessed with an incredible opportunity, and incredible responsibility as well.

					  <description><![CDATA[Every year, more students make the transition from life in the public high schools to a seat in a charter school classroom. And the numbers appear to be growing. &#8220;Alternative education is really growing here (in Arizona),&#8221; says Tim Eiden, league director for the Charter Athletic Association that governs athletic competition in these schools. &#8220;Our growth is almost entirely through word-of-mouth, but every year we pick up four or five new schools (in the CAA).&#8221; ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[This year&#8217;s Martin Luther King Basketball Classic at Well Fargo Arena in January culminated in a pair of thrilling boys and girls games that put the icing on a great day of basketball. Mesa Dobson and Tempe Corona del Sol showcased their girls teams in the 1 o&#8217;clock opener, with Dobson getting the first win of the day, 68-43. Boys&#8217; games followed, with Gilbert Mesquite using its size advantage for a 64-44 victory in the second game, and 5A defending champion Mesa Mountain View used a 11-3 run during the final minutes to win over No. 3 Desert Vista, 58-53, and avenge a December loss.  ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[The Paradise Valley Invitational is one of the few early tournaments that give high school boys basketball teams a chance to &#8216;get their game on&#8217; before regular-season play begins.
