From my notebook:

• "It is an event that started in 1964: The Game. It was the Mercy High School girls basketball team's signature contest. After a pandemic pause in 2021, it's back in 2022 as The Classic. 'We've always had this game in our schedule, whether it was The Game or The Classic, and it was always something for our players and our school and our community to get behind,' said Mercy head coach Mary Ella Marion. 'So, really for me, it's kind of like we're kind of getting back to normal again, which is great.'" (w2marnews)
