The annual Lockport Rising Stars was back yet again this April and took place on the evening of Wednesday, April 12th at The Bo Dome in Lockport, IL. The open event designed for 2027 and 2028 prospects featured 50+ prospects, many of whom showed extremely well and will be in consideration for future invite-only events and should be names that play prominently in the state for years to come.
