Fulton League Ends Season Tonight With Key Showdown
The Fulton basketball schedule closes with Wesley and V D facing off to decide the title. V D leads the league at .403, Wesley trails at .750. A Wesley win would tie V D and force a tiebreaker. D has beaten Wesley twice already and aims for a third. Weasley adds Dodas and Lowry to counter. Tecatur Joys Scouts and Win One Athletic Club also meet, but it has no effect on standings. Games begin at 7:45 pm on the Wesley Memorial court with a 10 cent admission.
