Pima College menβs basketball coachΒ Brian PeabodyΒ began the season Saturday, believe it or not. The Aztecs played in the ACCAC Jamboree in Phoenix. Before the regular season begins next month, Peabodyβs Aztecs will play a scrimmage against Hillcrest Prep Academy of Phoenix on Oct. 22 at 4 p.m., in the PCC gymnasium. Hillcrestβs top player, of course, is 7-foot Arizona commitΒ DeAndre Ayton. Peabodyβs top player this season is likely to be Empire High School gradΒ Deion James, a 6-7 wing player who has received interest from recruiters at UTEP, Washington State, Grand Canyon, USF and New Mexico State, among others.Β
