The 103 Annual Winchester Invitational Tournament will go down in history as the only time the tournament began in one town and ended in another. Midway through the tournament, structural damage to the roof of the gym at Winchester forced the remainder of the games to be played in the Bluffs gym. The Calhoun Warriors ended up taking home the third place trophy while Staunton defeated Triopia to take home the Championship trophy.
By far, the game to be at was the match-up between West Central and Calhoun on Wednesday. By the crowd in attendance and the noise level, it might have been the championship game. Calhoun came out on top and would be defeated later by Staunton. Here, Calhoun’s Jack Zipprich and West Central’s Nick Hamilton both go after the ball. (Carmen Ensinger/River County News)
