A local not-for-profit organization that awards college scholarships to high school students who have struggled held its second annual basketball fundraiser this weekend.

The Team-E Foundation held its $25,000 National Basketball Tournament at Rochester City School Number 33.

Organizers said it's the largest cash paying basketball tournament in the country.

Teams compete and the money raised is used for the "2nd Chance Impression Scholarship."

"There a bunch of former and current college players, overseas professional players playing in the league," said Executive Director Eddie Hammonds.

Hammonds said former NBA players like John Wallace and NBA referees take part in the tournament as well.
