While California enjoyed a full slate of top competition at the Nike Extravaganza in Santa Ana last weekend, the nation turns its eyes to New Jersey this weekend for the Primetime Shootout.

Headlining the three days of hoops will be the annual matchup between New Jersey powers St. Patrick (Elizabeth) and St. Benedict's (Newark). St. Benedict's coach Dan Hurley has yet to beat Kevin Boyle's squad in his seven-year tenure.

Top-ranked St. Anthony will play Maryland's John Carroll, and a New York City battle between Rice and Lincoln should garner attention as well.
