The annual Hoops for Hope Tournament will be played this weekend at the Manahan Orthopaedic Capital Center. This year's tournament, hosted by Grace College's men's and women's basketball teams, features eight games over the weekend. Games will run from 2-10 p.m. on Friday and from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. on Saturday. Admission to watch the games is $7 per day, and all proceeds will go to Kosciusko County Cancer Care Fund (KCCCF). The tournament is sponsored by Wyndham Garden of Warsaw and the Warsaw Morning Optimist Club. All cancer survivors are welcome to attend the tournament free of charge. "Our goal each year is to raise around $2,000. We want to raise money but also to raise awareness in the community," said Grace's men's coach Jim Kessler. "We chose to channel our money to KCCCF rather than the Jimmy V Foundation like most other schools do because all of the money stays local to benefit the area. It's been a neat thing for us to be involved with as a team."

The Lady Tigers, who turned the ball over 13 times in the first half, forced 13 turnovers in the third quarter, finished the eight-minute frame on a 13-2 run with Kennedy Patton’s buzzer-beating trey and pushed their Tiger Den win streak to 16 games.
