PCC, Mt. Sac in Citrus Thanksgiving Classic--(November 27, 1997)

Pasadena City College and Mount San Antonio College will play in the Citrus College Thanksgiving Holiday Classic Basketball Tournament at Citrus College on November 26, 28 and 29. The Tournament is also known as the Neil Edwards Thanksgiving Tournament; we're sure there's a story behind the name somewhere, but we don't know it. If you do, let us know.

Santa Barbara City College then matched up against San Bernardino CC at 4 pm; San Berdoo won 78-62; Mt. Sac took on Santa Ana at 6 pm, and won by a score of 93-86. Finally Citrus matched up with Riverside CC at 8 p.m., with Riverside not showing any manners at all. . .they beat up on the host Owls by a score of 100-71.
