• Lane Tech will play Ridgewood in the first round on Wednesday December 27, 2006 at 5:30pm.

• Lane Tech is in the bottom bracket along with some tournament favorites: Stagg and Mt. Carmel.

The parings are out for the Luther North Holiday Tournament. The favorite this years as it seems like it is every year will be Zion Benton led by 6'6" sophomore Marcus Yarbrough. But look out for Stagg in the bottom bracket who seems to be the only team capable of an upset. Other teams looking to compete for top 4 finishes include: Lane Tech, Mt. Carmel, Oak Lawn, and the host Luther North.
