FloHoops Names All-Peach Invitational Teams
FloHoops names their All-Peach Invitational Team from the Nike EYBL Peach Invitational tournament.
The Nike EYBL season is officially over with the conclusion of the Peach Jam and Peach Invitational. The Nike Peach Invitational showcased how deep the talent pool is in the EYBL circuit. The teams that competed in the PIT did not qualify for the headlining Peach Jam.
That didn’t prevent the PIT from being an exciting contest. After four days of D1-caliber basketball, the Georgia Stars claimed another summer title with a victory over Alabama Challenge in the championship game, 81-77.
Not all the tournament's stars were on Georgia’s EYBL squad. There were plenty of talent that made the FloHoops’ All-Peach Invitational team. It took a lot of deliberating but below are the all-tournament teams.

FloHoops awards Alex Barcello of the Oakland Soldiers, the Peach Invitational MVP award. Barcello led all players in player efficiency rating at 31.5. Barcello commanded the floor for the Soldiers. In addition to commanding the floor, the Oakland Soldiers’ guard shot lights out from all over the court. He showed that he could play the point guard position at a high-level as he goes into his senior season at Corona del Sol in Phoenix, Arizona.
