New gym to open with tournament
Marion High School activities director Tod Gordon announced MHS will play host next season to an eight-team basketball tournament to open the 2008-09 inaugural season in its new gymnasium.
The tournament will replace the Inman tournament Marion has played in the past few years, and will crown a champion in the single-elimination tournament.
Each team is guaranteed three games, but one loss assures the team will finish no higher than fifth place.
A name has not been announced as of yet for the tournament, and seeds will be decided after the current season is complete.
