The Christmas Break may have come at a good time for El Dorado’s basketball teams. But it won’t last long. The Wildcats will compete in the Camden Fairview Holiday Classic, beginning Wednesday. The Lady Wildcats will travel to play in the Little Rock Christian Holiday Classic.
Following a runner-up finish in the inaugural United Athletic Conference season, the University of Central Arkansas signed 23 recruits Wednesday on the first day of the NCAA early signing period.
For the second game in a row, El Dorado outscored its opponent in the fourth quarter. For the second time, it was too little, too late for the Wildcats, who fell to 0-3 in 5A South play Friday after a 63-53 loss to Pine Bluff at Wildcat Arena.
El Dorado’s three league losses have come to teams with a combined overall record of 20-6.
