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.

Alright folks. Here’s the schedule for tomorrow. As for me, I’m taking the day off from my real job to catch a basketball coma. 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.

For those of you on the eastern end of the Ozarks, you are not without holiday hoops. The U.S. Bank Holiday Invitational at Rolla High School always has some good action. This year the local squads are host Rolla, Salem, and Waynesville. They’ll be competing against Rogers, Arkansas who are coming off their Arvest Invitational title including wins over Mt. Vernon and Webb City, Warrensburg, St. Joseph Benton, Festus, and Francis Howell Central. The first round is the 28th, semis on the 29th, and finals on the 30th. Should be another great, competitive event with some excellent talent.
