	What	Anaheim Convention Center Holiday Classic Tournament
	Where:	Upland High School
	When	Tuesday, Dec 12 through Saturday, Dec. 16, 2000
	Who	16 Top SoCal Boys' Teams

This is one of those "All-Orange County" tournaments, and it's certainly one of the better one's taking place this week. Some good solid teams taking part in games played in a venue that most people rarely visit, a nice arena which really should see more action than it does. Some of the top players in Orange county will be there, and the first round matchups look good. Here's the schedule for the first two days.

Tuesday, Dec. 12, 2000
3:00 p.m.--Foothill vs. El Toro
4:40 p.m.--Katella vs. Los Alamitos
6:20 p.m.--Magnolia vs. Mission Viejo
8:00 p.m.--Orange Lutheran vs Newport Harbor

Wednesday, Dec. 13, 2000

3:00 p.m.--Anaheim vs. Capistrano Valley
4:40 p.m.--Esperanza vs. Servite
6:20 p.m.--Cypress vs. Brea Olinda
8:00 p.m.--Bolsa Grande vs. Villa Park.

Admittedly, the matchups aren't all that sexy in the first round, but there should be some good one's coming, like Villa Park v. Brea Olinda, and that would have to be a first-rate matchup if it happens. We would also look for Newport Harbor to make some noise with Tony Melum (6'-6" Jr. F) who has been playing very well lately. We'll have the rest of the bracket and schedule later in the week, as well as scores and game details. The Championship game is scheduled for Saturday, December 16 at 8:00 p.m.
