Welcome to the 75th Annual Sandra Meadows Classic
I want to take this opportunity to welcome you to the premier varsity girls’ basketball tournament in the nation, the 75th Annual Sandra Meadows Classic.
While Coach Meadows’ legacy deserves to be honored, it is quite an accomplishment to having held this tournament for 75 years. Inside this program you will find a listing of all tournament winners from the beginning.
Some of the top public and private school teams from across the nation, the state and the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex are participating. This means that the top basketball talent from across the country will be in our gyms during the tournament.
The Duncanville Lion’s Club is proud to partner with the Duncanville ISD, the Duncanville Chamber of Commerce and the City of Duncanville to make this one of the elite tournaments in the Nation. Our goal for the Sandra Meadows Classic is simply to continue building a great tradition honoring Coach Meadows and showcasing the best talent in girls’ basketball.
You will also find information on streaming videos from the tournament from PassThaBall. Any questions regarding the live streaming can be directed to them.
We hope that you enjoy your days that you spend with us in Duncanville and at the Sandra Meadows Arena. If you have any questions or need any help, see us at our information table or talk to anyone wearing a Lion’s Club badge or vest.
Yours Truly,
Steve Martin
