The New Iberia Senior High boys’ basketball team has been playing all over south Louisiana this summer.

Head coach Todd Russ wanted to give his players a chance to play before their home crowds, too, and that’s what the team will do this evening at the NISH boys’ basketball gym.

“This will be our first time and our only time playing at home,” said Russ. “I invited some (coaching) friends here.”

Russ said his team has played in Baton Rouge twice, and has gone to Lafayette and to a tournament at Thibodaux High as well.

Joining NISH today are Framily Christian Academy of Baton Rouge, Livonia and Northside high schools.
