Tonight marks the unofficial start of the basketball season as the week-long Pastor-Cooper Memorial Tournament tips off at Daemen College.
As usual, it's a great appetizer plate of girls and boys teams to check out as the season gets under way. It's a crazy-busy week here but I'll be heading out there as soon as I'm able.
