2026 Sansone Jr’s Auto Group Senior Boys Basketball All-Star Game Set for March 24 at Brookdale Community College
Shore Conference’s Top Senior Basketball Stars Take the Court for One Last Game
LINCROFT – The Sansone Jr’s Auto Group Senior Boys All-Star Game is set to tip off on March 24, 2026, at Brookdale Community College’s Robert J. Collins Arena. This highly anticipated event, presented by Shore Sports Insider and the Jersey Shore Basketball League, will showcase the top graduating seniors from across the Shore Conference.
The event, which also honors legendary Neptune head coach Ken O’Donnell, will see two $500 scholarships awarded to participating student-athletes in his memory. O’Donnell remains the only Shore Conference basketball coach to have won a state championship as both a boys coach and a girls coach. He led the Scarlet Fliers girls’ program to its first state title in 1984 while later winning twice with the boys’ program in 2002 and 2009.
“The boys’ senior all-star game is a long-standing tradition in the Shore Conference, celebrating the incredible talent, dedication, and hard work of our senior athletes,” said Steve Meyer, principal/Director Marketing & Sales. “Fans can expect high-energy basketball, dazzling plays, and a fantastic night honoring these players’ outstanding high school careers.”
