DHS Alumni Basketball Tourney Set For March 14-16

The Times has received a forwarded e-mail with details on the annual DHS Alumni Basketball Tournament, which will be held this year on March 14, 15 and 16.

It appears this year, for the first time, the tournament will feature a separate competition for alumni age 39 and older. The 39-and-over bracket will consist of half court, 4-on-4 games.

Tourney organizers say that the regular alumni tournament format will not change for those participating in the full court competition. D-Club sponsors are requesting that team rosters be submitted by e-mail at jvacek@esu6.org or by calling the school at (402) 946-2781. Rosters should include T-shirt sizes and player numbers. There is a $25 per player entry fee.

Those wishing to play in the alumni tournament should send in their entry no later than March 1.

According to the e-mail sent by D-Club sponsors Joshua Vacek and James Dankert, there will be a D-Club sponsored concession stand available serving snacks and drinks. "We encourage you to support our sponsors and enjoy dinner and supper downtown," the e-mail said. "It is our hope that we can continue to make this weekend enjoyable for the players, the fans, and the community."

Our thanks to reader "CJ" for sending this information along to us.
