HANOVER — Tim Winslow still chuckles when he thinks back to the Connecticut River Shootout’s origin. After winning the Capital City Classic holiday tournament in 2004 and 2005, the Hanover High boys basketball team was never invited back. Winslow isn’t sure why, but by the 2007-08 season he wanted to have his team playing in a holiday tournament again.
