For most rising seniors in the state of Alabama, the AHSAA North-South All-Star game is a big deal. When you’re already a big deal — like Tallassee’s Brue Milner, committed to Georgia Tech since last summer — North-South is something that can seem more insignificant. Not to mention Milner’s full schedule full of summer and travel ball, attending tournaments all across the Southeastern United States.
Even with his schedule packed to the brim, and no breaks on the horizon, Milner made the time to attend the all-star game last Tuesday.
