24 of the best traveling girls teams in the nation are here this week for the second annual Nike Nationals.

It's that kind of talent in one area that brings out some of the best college coaches in the game including USC Aiken's Mike Brandt.

"It's great, first of all the talent level is excelent. We're just fortunate to have this in our back yard." said Brandt

And while it may not have the luster or get the attention the guys tournament does, coaches say it's still worth checking out.

"It doesn't have the same atmosphere but these girls work as hard if not harder than the guys and that's why I love coaching women."
