ESPN is in the Yellowhammer State for the second weekend in a row, this time for Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy’s game at Hoover (Ala.).

Several Alabama targets and one commit are partaking in the game, which will be aired on ESPNU at 8 p.m. CT.

The Ascenders bring in a 6-1 record, most recently coming off a victory over Middletown out of Delaware. This is IMG Academy’s last game of the season as the program does not participate in the playoffs.
