The Cumberland County elementary varsity basketball season opened Nov. 24 with three doubleheaders — Crab Orchard at Homestead, South at Martin and Brown at Pleasant Hill, with the North at Stone postponed and reset for Jan. 5; however, last night's (Dec. 1) games were postponed, as school was dismissed for the snowy weather.
These games — Brown at South, Pleasant Hill at Martin, Crab Orchard at North and Homestead at Stone — must be rescheduled, as the county tournament is set Jan. 17, 19, 20, 23 and 24, utilizing both high school gyms.

"The guys played an overall good game, but tonight that wasn't enough. Costly turnovers in the first half and continually putting them at the late in the second half was too much for us to overcome.
