The R&L Holiday Classic tips off at West Iredell High School on Wednesday, the day after Christmas.
The Classic is one of the few times folks around Iredell County can observe other intriguing county matchups, in addition to watching the team they swear their allegiance to. That is part of the reason why the tournament is one of my favorite things to cover for the newspaper.
In addition, it's often some of the best basketball played here during the course of the season.
Predictions for this year's Classic:
1.) There will be two overtime games, with one outcome being decided at the final buzzer.
2. ) Lake Norman's boys will win the championship for the first time since the program began in 2002.
3. ) Statesville's girls will three-peat as Classic champs for the second time in school history. The Greyhounds, tournament champs in 2005 and '06, won three consecutive titles from 1999-2001.
