Bethlehem Catholic always schedules a tough start to their season, but the Hawks get a break over the holiday when they host the Tony Iasiello Christmas City Tournament on December 30.

The one day event begins at 8:30 a.m. and runs throughout the day.

This year’s tournament features eight teams with the hosts being joined by Conestoga, Executive Education Academy, Father Judge, Kutztown, Scranton Prep, Upper Merion and Western Wayne.

The girls tournament will also take place the same day with eight teams participating this year including Archbishop Ryan, Bethlehem Catholic, Liberty, Harry S. Truman, Nazareth, Northern Lehigh, Stroudsburg and Western Wayne.
