(St. Louis, MO) – There is nothing like championship day at a big time tournament like the Ameritime Classic. Tonight number one seed and third ranked team in the area Hazelwood Central takes on the second seeded Lafayette Lancers.
Both teams are battle tested. Central won the Meramec Holiday Festival and Lafayette has won the Webster Tournament and won the consolation bracket at Meramec!
The third place game features two Parkway teams (West and Central) who met earlier this season with Central winning.
Consolation games begin at 4 pm & 5:30 and there are good teams in those games too. All of the match ups will be worth the visit to the beautiful Missouri Baptist University campus.
That third place game tips at 7:00 pm and the championship at 8:30. All the games can be watched free of charge and live on the Spartan Digitial Network. Here’s a shortcut. click here. It will take you to the official site.
I’ve had the privilege of working a bunch of those games this week and the MO Bap staff has been just great. Tonight you’ll hear my friends John Edwards (my UMSL partner), Paul Ellis, Greg Uptain and Jim Powers.
If you want to watch it later, Charter TV will be on hand and Demetrious Johnson and I have the call on that platform. Yes a lot of broadcasters and thus a lot of egos on campus tonight!
Do Good

.@SEMOMBB wins at home and is 2-0, tied with @MSUEaglesMBB atop the @OVCSports. Our prayers are with the @LRTrojans after the death of one of their managers Josh Claxton. Their game with EIU was postponed today.
Good officiating in the @SEMOMBB/@SIUEMBB in a little late game dust up.
BTW, @LindenwoodWBB is 2-0. @CoachAmyEagan has that program headed the right direction.
With @SkyhawkHoops winning on the road and @LUMensBball winning at home, right now, 5 @OVCSports teams are 1-1.
