Coming off the championship of the Crabtree Invitational in Bentonville, the Bryant Hornets figure to face a much different challenge as they begin play today at 4 p.m., in the annual Jammin’ For Jackets tournament at Little Rock Hall.
Bryant, 4-0 on the young season, will take on the Little Rock McClellan Crimson Lions, one of the teams they tackled in their pre-season scrimmage in November.
The Hornets, with a strong starting five of senior forwards Deron Canada and Sam Chumley, junior swingman Rodney Lambert, sophomore guard Khalen Robinson and freshman point guard Camren Hunter, are trying to develop some depth while preparing for the 7A-Central Conference season.
Here are the brackets for the Jammin’ For Jackets tourney:
