It’s time for a change! The Lanierland Tournament is in its 59th year, and a few weeks ago I attended for the 38th consecutive year.I witnessed moms and smaller siblings crying because it was so crowded that they were not allowed to enter the gym at West Hall High School to see their sons and brothers play in a game between the East Hall and North Hall boys.
