The time for “string music” to be playing in the gymnasiums of “small schools” in the state of Louisiana is upon us as the 2025-26 LHSAA prep basketball season begins this week. 

Locally, that means that Quitman and Weston High Schools will soon be pounding the “hardwoods” with Weston tipping off the season by traveling to Claiborne Christian on Monday, November 3rd. Quitman High will open their season the next day, November 4th, by making the short trip to Dodson for girls and boys action. 

The contests will be the only games played this week. Next on the schedule, Quitman will play in the 12th annual Christopher Edmiston Memorial Tournament in Choudrant  on Friday and Saturday, November 7th & 8th. On the following Tuesday, November 10th, Quitman will play host to Saline and Weston travels to Family Community Christian School (FCCS) in Winnsboro.
