POST OF THE WEEK: 🏀🏀🏀 BCS Students Get a Front Row Seat to SoCon Tournament Action
 
Students from Buncombe County Schools recently experienced the excitement of college athletics during a field trip to the Southern Conference Basketball Tournament (SoCon).
 
The atmosphere inside the Harrah's Cherokee Center was electric as students and staff cheered on their favorite teams competing in the fast-paced tournament games. For many students, it was their first time experiencing a live college basketball game, and the energy of the crowd made it unforgettable.
