Hoops Heaven

Basketball fans, your time has come. The MHSAA Boys/Girls State Tournament begins its 2-week run at the Mississippi Coliseum on Monday, Feb. 24 (schedule). Sixty teams, 12 days of action at the Big Barn ... Dr. S says check it out ... There will be big games starting right on Day 1 when the Provine boys play Northeast Lauderdale. This is where you can see the stars of tomorrow on the boys and girls sides. But it's also about team and competition. You know, that "Hoosiers" stuff where the small town comes to the big city. Except it's more fun in real life. Over in Clinton, the MPSA Academy Overall tournament also starts Monday (schedule). The talent might not be quite as good, but the competition is just as fierce.
