The winter break might be coming to a close this weekend but there is still some major soccer competition left before school starts up again. The mega Chandler Prep Boys Soccer Invitational and the Red Mountain College Showcase will dominate the action in the Phoenix area while the Walden Grove and the Palo Verde Invitationals will headline action from Southern Arizona.

The Walden Grove Invitational will feature both boys and girls action and girls will compete at the Palo Verde Invitational.

The initial soccer rankings will be released on Thursday, Jan. 3 so, even though invitational have no bearing on rankings, the teams will know where they stand heading into next week.

In addition, Benson will host the McGlumphy-Comaduran Wrestling Tournament this Friday and Saturday, signaling the start of the major January tournaments.
