GIRLS BASKETBALL - Thursday Outlet Pass
Heading into another tournament heavy weekend (only five by my count), we'll take a look at Thursday's best looking matchups as well as any other non-tournament games that are on tap for the night.
Mel Otero/Rio Rancho Tournament
The Field: Rio Rancho, Piedra Vista, Centennial, Las Cruces, Clovis, Albuquerque, Belen, Espanola Valley.
Intriguing - Centennial/Clovis is by far the most interesting matchup in the first round. Clovis is coming off a tough loss in Espanola. Centennial is coming off a four game home stand going 3-1 in the run. This will be their first trip on the road this season and it'll be against a tough Clovis team that defeated Portales early this season.
