Effingham County Recreation and Parks recently hosted the GRPA Class "B" state basketball tournament for both Junior (13-14) boys and Senior (15-17) boys. Twelve teams traveled to Effingham from all over the state to compete in the two-day tournaments, which were held at ECMS and ECHS.
In the Junior boys division, Effingham’s all star team played well, but came up short during the bracket play. In the Senior boys division, Effingham’s all star team made a strong showing and placed second in the state.
