Athletic Director Phillip Karr has informed Your World Today that he has found a replacement game for the Viburnum matchup that was scratch off the Lady Tiger Basketball schedule earlier this year due to the lack of players on the Viburnum team. The Salem Lady Tigers will now play the Belle Lady Tigers at 5:00 in the evening at the Salem High School Gym on February 4th. The JV and Varsity Boys will be playing Houston that night as well making the event a triple header! If you can’t make it to the game KSMO will broadcast both boys and girls varsity matchups on KSMO radio and KSMO streaming platforms. 

The Mizzou Basketball Tigers played the Jacksonville State Gamecocks yesterday and continued their winning ways. The Tigers handed the Gamecocks their fifth loss on the season by a score of 83-72.
