NORTH JUDSON — It’s been nearly nine months since Culver dethroned North Judson in Sectional 34 play, and by the look of things Wednesday, that loss had been on the Bluejays' minds ever since.
Judson hit the court running, jumping off to a 14-nil lead against the Cavaliers and never looking back in a dominant 72-35 reprisal victory at the Winning Edge Holiday Tournament at North Judson Wednesday.

PLYMOUTH — While many drank hot chocolate by a roaring fire during the holidays, some of Plymouth High School’s hardiest athletes were in the water.
Granted it was the PHS pool — indoors — that hosted what’s become the Christmas holiday tradition of the Plymouth Alumni Swim meet, but those in attendance were there for a good cause: Honoring a long-time swim team supporter and raising some money for charity.

NORTH JUDSON — Zoe Bauer said he wasn’t even thinking about the scoring record. The Culver senior preferred to take a back seat to the Cavaliers’ front line Tuesday.
In the end, he got the record anyway.
After putting up 10 points in the opening frame to push his team to a 15-10 lead at the quarter break, Bauer was mostly quiet in the second and third frames, dishing out six assists as the Cavaliers pounded the ball in the paint to take a double digit lead at the half and build to a 36-24 advantage headed into the final frame.
NORTH JUDSON — It was an all-too familiar theme for the Lancers.
Already on a two-game skid after a 3-0 start to the season, high turnovers plagued LaVille a third straight game, and the result was their third straight loss as the Lancers fell 77-61 to undefeated North Judson-San Pierre at the North Judson Winning Edge Holiday Basketball Tournament Tuesday.
ARGOS — Argos’ girls basketball team suffered through one of those nights where almost nothing went right.
The Dragons shot just 29.6 percent from the field –— of 12 from 3-point range — struggled to an 11-of-23 finish from the charity stripe, and got out-boarded by 11 in a 57-45 loss to Kankakee Valley in the Winter Classic first round Tuesday at Phil Weybright Gymnasium.
Kankakee Valley advances to Thursday’s title tilt against Rochester at 6:30 p.m., while Argos meets West Central in the consolation round, also Thursday, at 6:15 p.m. Both games are at Argos.
ARGOS — Knox defense was the key to the defeat of Argos in Round 1 of the Winning Edge Winter Classic, but it was really Redskins Josh Risner and Elliott Coad’s teamwork that unlocked Knox’s full power.
The Redskins’ in-your-face defense held the Dragons to just seven points in the second half for a 45-26 win that carried the Redskins to the championship game of the tournament to be held Thursday at Argos.
Todd Boldry, head coach for Knox, said he knew defense was going to make or break his team all night.

PLYMOUTH — The city of Plymouth has a new ordinance for its sewer system, but two other ordinances will have to wait.
An ordinance for the city’s pretreatment sewer program was enacted after passing second and third reading by the Plymouth Common Council Monday. The ordinance brings the city in line with Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Indiana Department of Environmental Management standards for cities with pretreatment programs.
