SNOW HILL SKYFISH ADDED TO ABA 2021 EXPANSION

Indianapolis, IN.

The American Basketball Association (ABA) today announced that the Snow Hill Skyfish in Snow Hill, NC has been added to the record-setting list of expansion teams for the upcoming season starting in November. 'We are very excited to add the Skyfish to the league,' stated ABA CEO Joe Newman. 'We want and need more teams in North Carolina and have found a great new owner in Jason Lampa, the team owner and head coach. Jason will provide a high level of basketball entertainment for the people living in Snow Hill and the surrounding communities.'

After a successful high school and college career in basketball and baseball, Mr. Lampa received his MBA in Finance from Seton Hall University and has spent 20 years in the investment consultant and insurance industry, representing companies such as OppenheimerFunds, City and New York Life Investment Management. Mr. Lampa currently contracts through State Farm representing Pick Picken's Insurance Agency in Wilson, NC.

'Marsha Blount, the owner of the Jersey Express is the one responsible for getting me back into basketball,' added Lampa. 'Working as an assistant coach for her rekindled my love for the game. I had been out of the game for about 16 years and I was lost without it.'
