Effingham-Teutopolis Christmas Classic Canceled for 2020

The Effingham-Teutopolis Christmas Classic has been canceled for 2020 due to COVID-19 and restrictions on travel to games imposed by the State and the IHSA.

The Tournament Committee released this statement on Wednesday:

"Unfortunately, we, the Effingham-Teutopolis Christmas Classic committee, have made the tough decision to cancel our tournament for this year. In order to ensure the safety of everyone involved and adhere to the guidelines set forth by the State of Illinois and the Illinois High School Association, we felt that it was best not to host the tournament. Our committee wanted to make this decision at an early date, so our participating teams could have time to reschedule. Thank you to everyone for the support the last several years and we will see you all in 2021 for some fantastic basketball. Stay safe and healthy! The Christmas Classic Committee."
