Basketball begins: 334 tweets in 31 days

I’m starting the boys basketball preview on Friday via Twitter. I’ll be sending one tweet out about each of the 334 teams the Sun-Times covers. It’ll be in alphabetical order, from ACE Tech to Zion-Benton, starting on Friday.

Follow me on twitter at @michaelsobrien for all the updates.

If you are a boys basketball coach, please send any info you have on your team, anything you would like included etc., to mobrien@suntimes.com

(Thanks to Justin Young for the idea, which I am blatantly stealing. Young is doing the same thing for Divison I college basketball teams. Follow him @justindyoung)
