If there was any doubt about how much the Lanierland Tournament means to basketball teams in Hall County, one needed only see the faces of the winners Saturday night to know that it still means — even in its 53rd year — a lot. In their home gym, the North Hall Trojans staved off a determined effort from Johnson and emerged as champions with a 48-47 win. “This is just a really good group of kids,” North Hall coach Benjie Wood said of his team after taking a moment to calm his emotions.
