SAN FRANCISCO – The City College of San Francisco women's basketball team is putting together another solid start to the season. After returning home from a three-day tournament in Southern California, the Rams are set to return to their home court starting on Thursday (Dec. 18) to host the Golden Gate Classic.

Heading to Brad Duggan Court at the CCSF Wellness Center to compete alongside the Rams are Los Angeles Valley College (3-8), Santa Rosa Junior College (7-2), East Los Angeles College (8-5), Los Angeles Southwest College (6-8), and Sierra College (7-2).

It should be a competitive weekend of basketball as five of the six squads advanced to their respective regional playoffs last season.

The tourney runs Thursday-Saturday with three games each day:
