Two weeks of instruction have been completed, getting youngsters used to the skill set needed for basketball. After a break this Saturday, the participants in Escalon’s Cub Basketball program will come back to start a five-week league season on Saturday, Jan. 27. “We have around 170 kids,” said Cub Basketball program coordinator Martin Louro, who also serves as head coach for the varsity boys basketball program at EHS. “We go from seven years old to 14 years old and the first two weeks, we do clinics.”
