Thresher winter break
With the end of classes (and the coming of Houston snow, surprisingly enough), the Thresher will be undergoing its annual winter break hibernation. But this won't be a traditional hibernation -- while our first issue of the spring semester won't be out until Jan. 15, there will be plenty of sports updates during the break while we keep tabs on the goings-on of the men's and women's basketball teams. So tune in early and tune in often, and keep tabs on the Owls' march to the Big Dance.
