The winter break is finally here, and we can all take a little much-needed time for friends, family and fun.
But while we are all relaxing around the fire, the athletes of RRPS are still busting their humps.
So, why not get a little fresh air and get out of the house this break and check out some holiday hoops?
Some teams are starting to emerge as top dogs, others are fighting to get out of the basement, but all of them have plenty of basketball left.
Just in case you want a primer of where everyone in prep basketball stands, here you go: all the rankings and schedules and scores you need to dive in.
Top 5 Takeaways:
- 1. The Holiday Hoops Tournament is coming to RRHS Dec. 26-28.
- 2. The CHS boys team is heading to the Hobbs Holiday Tournament Dec. 26-28.
- 3. The BHS girls are right in the mix at third in their class.
- 4. The CHS girls are going to return to action with a chip on their shoulder after dropping two in Las Cruces right before the Winter Break.

- 5. After winning three games in one week, the RRHS girls are finally getting a much-deserved break.
Good luck to all the athletes and Happy Holidays from all of us here at the Rio Rancho Observer!
