We’re under way for the final day of holiday tournaments. Only Lebanon and Neosho remain. Neosho Holiday Classic Girls at Neosho Middle School unless noted
Other champions crowned already tonight. Branson wins the Blue division 66-51 over Nixa. Mt. Vernon wins the Pink & White beating West Plains 49-29. And Norwood defeats Dora to win the Cabool Tournament. The Walnut Grove boys championship, the Richland title game, and the U.S. Bank final are all under way with the Gold division game soon to tip. Webb City is the only area team to find the winners circle on the final day of the KTXR Lady Classic. The Lady Cardinals rebounded from their loss to Kickapoo to blast Lexington Catholic 62-26 in the 3rd place game. Glendale lost a heartbreaking 7th place game 53-52 to Shawnee Mission East. Nixa almost upended Midwest City in the 5th place game. But two Richa Jackson free throws sealed the win for the Bombers 52-50. And in a game just completed, Wheeling, IL hangs on to win 50-44 over Kickapoo. The Lady Chiefs were down 13 at the half but whittled the lead down until they were down 5 with 2 and a half minutes to play. But couldn’t get any closer. Great effort from Kickapoo and a deserved second place finish. Neosho Holiday Classic Shocker at Weiser. It’s no shock that Kickapoo could beat Webb City, but to do it 49-27 by only allowing the Lady Cardinals 5 points in the second half is stunning. Great defensive effort by Kickapoo and they ran out to a 25-6 first quarter lead. Meanwhile at the Blue & Gold, Ozark escapes again with a 3 pointer at the buzzer again defeating Strafford 40-37. Isaiah Monroe hits the dagger tonight as Ozark advances to the Gold championship game. Lebanon Central Bank Holiday Tournament

I’ll be at Hammons Student Center to watch the Blue division of the Blue & Gold. Then I’ll be off to Weiser Gym to catch the KTXR Lady Classic first round. I’ll be doing my best to post updates throughout the day. If I survive, I’ll have a full report Tuesday. Blue & Gold at Hammons Student Center Blue Division
