8th grade teams to play today

By Donnie A. Lucas

The eighth grade Cubs and Lady Cubs will travel to Cross Plains on Thursday (today) for games tipping off at 5:00 p.m.

The junior high teams have been idle since Dec. 16 prior to the Christmas break.

Only the two eighth grade teams will face off against Cross Plains since the Buffs only have one junior high team each for boys and girls.

A full set of games is set for Monday for all the junior high teams against Haskell. The girls teams will travel to Haskell for games starting at 5:30 p.m., while the boys will host Haskell here, also starting at 5:30 p.m.

The eighth grade girls are scheduled to play in the Throckmorton tournament on Jan. 16-18, while both the seventh and eighth grade boys’ A teams will play in the Brownwood tournament on Jan. 17-18.
