Some of the top basketball players in the nation will descend upon Salem this December for the Capitol City Classic.
On Thursday, the Capitol City Classic announced the full field of teams that will participate this year. The teams include a number of national powerhouses.

Armstrong Williams hosts a town hall on Baltimore schools: $1.7B budget, yet only 10% of students are proficient in math.

Southern Nevada continues to solidify its status as the sports capital of the world, with the city of Henderson making a significant contribution to the local sports economy.
Following her 'State of the City Address' at the M Resort, Mayor Michelle Romero highlighted the upcoming West Henderson Field House, which is set to open within a year near St. Rose Parkway and Maryland Parkway.
David Paull, who worked with Kemper Sports on the development, emphasized the need for a sports tourism facility in the Las Vegas Valley, particularly for youth sports.
"The Las Vegas Valley is really short a sports tourism facility – specifically for youth," Paull said. The new venue aims to fill this gap by hosting large regional tournaments, attracting participants and their families from neighboring states and beyond.

The West Henderson Field House will span 160,000 square feet, featuring four basketball courts, two hybrid turf fields, an arcade, laser tag, and potentially bowling lanes. It is expected to accommodate nine sports for 1.1 million athletes annually, generating nearly $11 million in wages and $1.5 million in tax revenue.
Mayor Romero expressed optimism about the facility's economic impact, stating, "We don't even know the impact it will have at this point. We have projections, but incredible."
Plans are also underway for a similar complex in East Henderson, on the site of the former Fiesta Casino.
The project is a public-private partnership with Kemper Sports, offering Henderson residents a 20% discount on recreational amenities and the opportunity to host local sports tournaments.

Stop for soda led Gaston County man to $114,614 Fast Play jackpot – NC Education Lottery

Albert Clinton Jr. of Gastonia had a craving for a special holiday soda on Sunday so he went to the store, added a Fast Play ticket, and left with his mocktail and a bubbly $114,614 jackpot.
“We went there to get the Shirley Temple 7-Ups,” Clinton laughed.
He bought his lucky $2 Bingo Bucks ticket from the S’Mart on Bessemer City Road in Gastonia. At the time of his purchase, the jackpot stood at $573,070. Since Clinton bought a $2 ticket, he received 20% of the progressive jackpot.
“It was an unreal feeling,” Clinton said.
He arrived at lottery headquarters on Thursday to collect his prize and, after required state and federal tax withholdings, took home $82,236.
Clinton plans to use his winnings to pay bills and have a good Christmas with his family.
“The holidays are here,” he said.
Fast Play features an instantly growing jackpot that increases with every ticket sold until it is won. As of Thursday afternoon, the jackpot stands at over $495,000 and counting.
