JSZ takes another tour around the Garden State for another great Saturday in high school basketball. We’ve got action from two games at the 10th annual Jimmy V Showcase at Central Regional High School. Plus, Tenafly looks to stay unbeaten against Northern Highlands, and Union goes to battle with Westfield in a Union County clash. Check back as the highlights roll in throughout the night!
