Seven boys and seven girls teams will take to the courts at Warren Central and Vicksburg High starting today in the annual Coca-Cola Classic.
Jefferson County, originally scheduled to be the eighth team, pulled out of the tournament in October. Natchez will have a bye in the first round because of the odd number of teams.
