Lizi Arbogast / The Outlook Benjamin Russell's Bishop Desmond is set to return tonight after the Wildcats have been off since Dec. 13 for the holiday break.

Some high school basketball teams like to get in a few extra games during the winter break. Whether by hosting a couple home games like Horseshoe Bend did just before Christmas or playing in a tournament like Reeltown, Benjamin Russell girls and Central Coosa did, getting in some extra playing time can work wonders for teams heading into the second half of the season.

But for Benjamin Russell’s boys team, it was practice time the doctor ordered.
