Continue ReadingThe Judy Dixon Holiday Basketball Tournament starts on December 26th and will feature number of quality teams and players. Here is a preview of the action that will take place this week.
In the first round Flagstaff will take on Valley Vista. The Eagles have on of the best front lines in the state, starting with 6’7” senior Brett Morrow who returned to the court after tearing his shoulder this spring. 6’7” junior George Faull and 6’9” senior Kaleb Hagerman join him. Valley Vista comes in at 0-9. In the second game Centennial comes in 7-4 behind 5’11” senior power guard Moses Demarbiex to take on Northwest Christian.
One of the key first round games will be when Valley Christian faces off with Millennium. VC junior Matt Svorinic has had a great start to the year averaging 17 points per game but will have his hands full with a tough Habib Arogundade who is looking to lead a struggling Tigers club. In game four the Division 4 champs Arizona Lutheran will have their hands full with a 10-2 Sunnyslope squad who has been on an absolute tear this season.
The next round of games will see an up and down Liberty squad take on an athletic Moon Valley team who are led by Texas Rio Grande Valley commit Bryce Cheney. Independence will also take on Ironwood.
The final round of games will see a balance Joy Christian squad pair up with a 7-5 Tucson High led by seniors DeAndre Eason and PJ Trujillo. The final game of the night will be between Greenway and Shadow Ridge.
