Elyria Catholic and Elyria High basketball squads will be honored in coming days. The Knights of Columbus and Booster Club host a Panthers event at the Palladeum Ballroom tomorrow evening. Tuesday at 7 p.m. the Pioneers will attend a stag dinner at the Blue Sky Inn, with Pioneer backers seeking $5 per person to support Lopez, Vice Presidents Day Rigney and Chuck Comiskey, and to aid in landing a first baseman, a left handed hitting catcher, and a fourth starting pitcher for the team.
