CLASSIC
The Breakdown is proud to present the annual Side Out Classic, which began in August of 2014 as the premier one-day early-season volleyball event in the state! The goal of the event is to bring together unique matches between premier programs that may not otherwise be seen.
We're excited to host 24 teams from all classes for the state's best one-day showcase volleyball event!
We bring teams from across the state to take on programs from the northeastern corner of the state at Duluth East High School. It promises to be a highly-anticipated and exciting time for basketball fans from around the state..
