Off the top of my head, the Mizzou hs tourneys of the late 90s were run by Scott Brinker; last I heard, he was in the St. Louis area. Katrina Ohlemacher ran the tournaments between Brinker and myself. I recall the 2002 tourney (which had 20 teams) had Kyle Hill's Liberty team beat Chris Ottolino's P...

Hey, I read in the local paper that Samantha Bradford is headed to Mizzou. She was the number two scorer on the Smithton team that lost the district title by five points to St. Paul Lutheran who in turn lost the state title to Richland by five points (although on QG, who knows what that truly means).
