July 29--GOSHEN -- Rain showers caused fans to scurry for cover several times, but for the most part the weather conditions didn't deter players in the annual 3-on-3 basketball tournament Wednesday night at the Elkhart County 4-H Fair.

Despite the short-term delays, semifinalists were determined in two more age brackets for Thursday's final evening of games.

Championship contests are scheduled for all age groups tonight beginning at 6:30 p.m. Also slated are slam dunk and 3-point shooting contests.

In the female age 16-and-over semifinals, Team Falcon meets Team Fetters and Team Schwartz clashes with Team Swihart.

The semis are slated to begin around 7:20 p.m. and the championship at approximately 9:25.

Members of Team Falcon are Amber Falcon, Kelsey Hershberger, Jena Hershberger and Erica Emanuel of Goshen. Playing for Team Fetters are Katie Fetters of Hamilton, Ohio, Meaghan Heatherman of South Bend, Lindsay Swaim of Bristol and Baysia Cox of Niles, Michigan.
