About this Article

Recognition often times comes by way of success, and the Burlington Central girls basketball program has learned that for the second time in the past couple weeks. Coming off a 27-5 season and a Class 3A supersectional appearance, the Rockets on Monday accepted an invitation to join the 16-team field at the prestigious Charger Classic Christmas Tournament at Dundee-Crown. Central will replace nine-time tournament champion Fenwick, which informed Dundee-Crown recently that it will not return in 2013.
