High school basketball in Cordell hit an unexpected snag as the Cordell Blue Devils eagerly prepared for a showdown against Canute High School on Monday, December 11. However, the highly anticipated game was derailed by a shortage of referees, resulting in its rescheduling to a date beyond the Christmas break. This twist of fate, while disappointing, has added an air of anticipation and extra preparation time for the Blue Devils as they navigate the challenges of an unpredictable season.
