    Almost every evening during the fall and winter, there is basketball being practiced or played in the Cherokee County High School gymnasium. I see the sweaty players running up and down the court and hear the squeaking of shoes on the wood floor. When basketball is going on, the gym changes. If a basketball game is being played in the gym, the atmosphere is not the same as it is in any other circumstance. I oftentimes walk in to players with their hands on their hips, breathing really hard.…
