In a great weekend for Cougar basketball, both the boys and girls teams had very successful tournaments.

The boys beat #5 Plano West on a last second shot to end up in the championship game in the South Padre Island Invitational tournament. In the championship game, the Cougars rallied to defeat Houston 2nd Baptist 60-56 to take home the tournament trophy.

The girls also played in the championship game in the Austin Bowie tournament but fell a little short against Stony Point, taking 2nd place.

Congratulations to both teams for making Clark nation proud!

If you’ve visited the 265 (that’s District 26-5A/NEISD) lately, you know there’s plenty of road construction going on that side of town.  Regarding the best way to get to Heroes Stadium, there are reports that 410 at Starcrest will be a mess this Saturday.  I drove past there a weekend ago and traffic in that direction was definitely backed up.  So be sure to check your best route for getting there on time.  There are several ways to go including using the Wurzbach Parkway where it connects by Blossom.
