BOURBON – Triton’s home girls basketball game with Winamac tonight, as well as Thursday’s boys game with Bethany Christian, will be played at Triton Elementary School. A broken water pipe in a locker room and subsequent runoff onto the gym floor at the high school overnight Sunday into Monday prompted the move.
