Other top attractions on the Game-of-the-Week basketball broadcast schedule this season include four-game coverage of the prestigious 5th Annual St. Hope Elite Hoops Classic from Sacramento High School; a five-day, 32-team extravaganza that represents the largest boys tournament in Northern California. This basketball bonanza includes prominent heavyweights from Southern California and the Bay Area, plus the Sacramento area's premium squads featured in the Platinum and Gold Divisions. Early in the New Year the top local rivalry of St. Francis vs. Christian Brothers headlines the girls presence on the Game-of-the-Week, followed by a boys blockbuster double-header in the Addidas Challenge from Sheldon High School in late January. Upon reaching the post-season in late February, Access Sacramento eagerly anticipates its coverage of early-round CIF/Sac-Joaquin Section playoff action to conclude an exciting season of basketball in Sacramento County.
