The Stow-Hudson match ups will begin at 4:30 p.m. Jan. 4.
There are two important games many Stow residents will focus on tonight — the Stow-Munroe Falls High School boys' basketball games and the Sugar Bowl. Because the Ohio State Buckeyes are playing the Arkansas Razorbacks at 8:30 p.m. Jan. 4 in the Sugar Bowl, the Hudson and Stow School Districts decided to begin their games early tonight. The boys JV game will begin at 4:30 p.m. tonight and the varsity basketball game will begin at 6 p.m. at Hudson. The freshman game, which was originally scheduled for tonight, is moved to 6 p.m. Jan. 5 at Hudson. "All involved in the scheduling from Hudson and Stow-Munroe Falls agreed this was the best decision for game times," said Jacquie Mazziotta, a spokesperson for the district. Go Bulldogs!
