Hoops, rims, and buckets

Since Thanksgiving, basketball is all I've been covering at the newspaper--aside from a few fires. Makes it tough week in and week out to write and, especially, make photos with variety. Such is life in a small county that doesn't have enough students/facilities to have the other winter sports, swimming and wrestling. The district tournament begins next week. Two of my four teams will likely go one-and-done while the other two will likely advance to the regional tournament.

That extended postseason will ease the dead time between high school seasons as baseball, softball, and track and field get under way. (Is it really that time already?) Too bad our small county is yet to add soccer to the spring schedule. Then I'd be in business.
