Governor’s Challenge Gets Underway On Saturday

SALISBURY- The 34th Annual Governor’s Challenge holiday basketball tournament gets underway on Saturday with early first-round games featuring local teams.

The Governor’s Challenge, long a staple on the holiday basketball tournament scene, has steadily grown to become the largest high school tournament in Maryland and perhaps the largest on the east coast. Starting Saturday and running through next Wednesday, December 30, the tournament will feature roughly 100 of the top boys’ and girls’ teams from around the region from Virginia to New York.

For years, the tournament featured the top high school basketball programs from both Maryland and Delaware competing against each other for bragging rights in the neighboring states along with signature desserts on the line for both states’ governors. The tournament was rebranded in 2010, and thanks in large part to a partnership with DMVelite Showcase Events, now features some of the best boys’ and girls’ teams from all over the mid-Atlantic region and beyond. The tournament last year added a girls’ varsity division and is adding a junior varsity bracket this year.
