JOURNAL SPORTS
Thanksgiving break for local schools means a week off for all students while basketball programs compete in two annual tournaments that consume the playing schedule in the first part of the week.
The annual Thanksgiving Classic at Booker T. Washington tips off today and goes on through Wednesday. The City of Lights tournament at Natchitoches Central also starts today and will play a slate of games Tuesday.
Here is the schedule of games for both tournaments and a few other single games through Wednesday.
