Look for school buses and traffic all weekend near both Jefferson City and Capital City high schools, because of two popular holiday basketball tournaments.
The Joe Machens Great 8 Classic for boys starts Friday afternoon at 4 at JC, and the Jefferson Bank Select 8 Classic for girls begins today at 2:30 at Capital City high school.
We’ll have live coverage of three boys games from the Great 8 Classic this evening on Zimmer’s Newsradio 950 KWOS. Capital City plays Montgomery County at 5:30, Jefferson City battles a Tennessee team at about 7 and Helias plays Charlotte Florida at about 8:30 pm. Hall of Famer Kevin Kelly and Coach David Fox have all three games on KWOS.
Six of the eight girls teams in the Jefferson Bank Select 8 Classic are from mid-Missouri: they are Capital City, Helias, Jefferson City, Battle, Tipton and Boonville.
