Clarion Area Basketball Boosters Hold Their 17th Annual 3-On-3 Tournament

The Clarion Area Basketball Boosters held their 17th Annual 3-On-3 Tournament today (March 21st).

Fifty-two teams participated in this year’s event, from Mercer, Kane, St. Mary’s and around the local area.

Co-directors for the tournament were Rose Weaver and Brian Burford. Weaver has directed the tournament for a number of years. This is Burford’s first year at the helm.

Weaver and Burford agreed that there was “a lot of good competition,” in the tournament.

There was a fine turnout of volunteers. Burford stated, “Court Monitors are the key to this thing.” Some of them included: D. J. Lauer, Don Skunda, Tony Beveridge, Ken Nellis, Jeff Kroh, Jason Craig and Paul Weaver.
