Italy — The 2012 Italy Invitational Basketball Tournament will be played Thursday, November 29 thru Saturday, December 1 inside both the Italy Coliseum dome and inside the George E. Scott Coliseum (OG or Old Gym). Representing Italy in the tournament will be the Lady Gladiators, head coached by Melissa Fullmer.

The Gladiators are currently in the football playoffs and will not be suiting up a team to compete in the tournament. We wish our football players all the best in their regional matchup on Friday against Honey Grove!

With 10 teams competing in the girl’s bracket and 8 teams competing in the boy’s bracket, there will still be plenty of hardwood action for basketball fans.

Girl’s teams competing:

  • Italy
  • Dallas Faith Family
  • Rio Vista
  • Mineral Wells
  • Meridian
  • Maypearl
  • Ferris
  • Oak Cliff Life
  • Dallas Lutheran
  • Burleson Centennial

Boy’s teams competing:

  • Fairfield
  • Palmer
  • Venus
  • Kerens

Good luck to the Lady Gladiators and all the teams competing in the Italy Invitational!

Go Lady Gladiators!
