The Fallon Wildcats were the champion team in the Thanksgiving Holiday Classic's grade 1-3 division.
Twenty teams participated in this year’s Thanksgiving Holiday Classic basketball tournament.
The co-ed teams were comprised of students in grades 1-3, 4-6 and 7-8. Teams from Fallon were joined by teams from Yerington, Schurz, Wadsworth, Nixon, Silver Springs, Dayton, Owyhee and Bishop, Calif.
The tournament doubled as a fundraiser for the Churchill County High School boys’ basketball team with money raised going toward travel and outfitting expenses for the season.
