Midwest Charity Classic featuring top recruits has been canceled

The Midwest Charity Classic, a one-of-a-kind night of basketball to benefit the Kentucky Flood Relief Fund of the American Red Cross, has been canceled. Originally scheduled for August 27 at Frederick Douglass High School, the event was set to feature the likes of Reed Sheppard, Travis Perry, Rob Dillingham, Xavier Booker, Mookie Cook and Flory Bidunga, among others.

More than a dozen four- and five-star recruits were set to participate in the regulation game, with proceeds set to help flood victims in Eastern Kentucky.
