MURDO, S.D. – Extreme cold and dangerous travel conditions forced postponements or cancellations of almost all high school sports events on Saturday (Jan. 13, 2024) including the third and final day of the 56th Jones County Invitational Basketball Tournament. After Friday’s results, Colome and Bennett County were to be matched up in the 7th Place contest, as well as Stanley County and Lyman for fifth. The Buffaloes and Raiders have decided that their Feb. 19th regular season game will also serve as that 5th Place game of the Jones County Tournament. Meanwhile the 3rd Place and Championship games will be made up Tuesday night. Kadoka Area will take on the host team Jones County for third place in a 5:30 tipoff followed by White River against Philip for the championship. Both games can be heard on 94.5 KPLO-FM with a pregame time of 5:00 and both games can also be seen with live video available from https://drgnews.com/kplo.
