I heard this was brought up at last nights boosters meeting. Should mean some good revenue for the athletic department with Coach Crane being the new athletic director. Some people complain that he makes the schedule a little over challenging but our boys won 17 games last year and all but one of them are back so he must be doing something right. I hear they are playing Stuebenville, Warren Local, Fairfield Christian, Coshocton, and more than likely will see Wheeling Central Catholic and their star who signed with West Virginia again in the OVAC tournament. He had them playing in Columbus, Lancaster, Cambridge and Parkersburg all summer on top of AAU. Hopefully it pays off this winter, it's my son's last season on the hardwood.

As a former English teacher I have to say it: It's not annual until it occurs for the second time. The first time it's inaugural lol. Even saw a local newspaper host a 1st Annual 5K. Sorry a pet peeve lol. However, looks like a great tournament. Best of luck to all!

Game times being set, bdubs will sponsor the food for the event. Should be a great few days of hoops. The Big Red and Caldwell are hopefully hitting their stride about that point as both appear headed toward the football playoffs in a few weeks.

You only get better by playing people who challenge you. I'd rather win 14 and be prepared for the tournament than win 20 and lose in the first round.

Yea in basketball every team makes the tourny so it makes sense to schedule up.

Seriously? Haven't the Native Americans suffered enough at the hands of the white man? Couldn't this just be called the Caldwell Christmas Classic? Do we have to insult an entire race of people in the process? I hope those in charge at Caldwell get their act together and make this right!
