The consolation games will be streamed live on accesswdun.com, and the finals will be broadcast live, as well as streamed, on WDUN AM 550/FM 102.9.
Last week, the tournament committee make the decision to close the gates to fans because of COVID-19. They released a statement citing health and safety reasons.
"Leadership from all three systems met this morning to discuss hosting the Lanierland Basketball Tournament under the challenging circumstances created by COVID-19," the committee statement said. "With the number of positive cases in the community on the rise, and with so many schools facing the challenge of maintaining in-person instruction, the agreement was reached that the tournament should proceed but with no spectators in attendance."
Because no fans are being allowed at the tournament, a digital copy of the 2020 Lanierland program can be seen here. Limited print copies of the magazine are available at WDUN's studios at 1102 Thompson Bridge Road
