Rolla Tournament

Does anyone know what the plan with the Rolla Tournament is now? Both Rolla and Fox have dropped out. Are teams filling those spots, doing pool play, byes, new bracket?

I'm up here in far north Missouri, 12 or so miles from Iowa (as the crows fly), and I have no idea about tournaments this far away from me. BUT, my gut tells me that if Rolla isn't in the Rolla tournament, there's not going to be a Rolla tournament.

Rolla coach says it will still be played even without Rolla. There is a short article on the Phelps County Focus about this. Rolla athletics has not updated anything.

On the first day of this, I guess we'll call it a showcase series, I'm thinking it will be a good day for the little guys. I'm predicting Licking gets a win over Truman, Fatima gets a win over Battle, but one little guy goes down with Rock Bridge beating Crocker pretty bad.

Watched the Fatima vs Truman game on youtube last night and WOW did that game end in a wild fashion. Running 30-foot bank shot for Truman to win by 1. Just an odd game from start to finish.
