Sonoma hoopsters eye non-conference slate

Basketball Dragons host Alumni Games|

Both the boys and the girls basketball teams at Sonoma Valley High will be in action this week – starting tonight (Tuesday).

And the North Coast Section cross country meet, which was supposed to have been run on Saturday, is scheduled for today (Tuesday) at Hayward High in the East Bay. Cross country Coach John Litzenberg isn’t sure how many runners he’ll have today since it’s Thanksgiving break. As of Saturday, he had one runner for sure and was waiting on a couple of others. Originally, there were six boys and three girls set to run. The top runners at NCS qualify for Saturday’s state meet in Fresno.

Tonight, Tuesday, is the annual basketball Foundation Game. The game is sanctioned by the North Coast Section, but doesn’t count in the standings. It’s a fund-raiser for the NCS Scholarship Foundation.
