Proviso East is the clear favorite in the Proviso West Holiday Tournament and No. 12 Homewood-Flossmoor could be be waiting for the No. 4 Pirates in the title game, according to the pairings released on Monday.

“We’re extremely happy to be back at the Proviso West Tournament,” Homewood-Flossmoor coach Jim McLaughlin said. “We are lucky to have a lot of guys back that have played a lot of minutes in the tournament before.”

The highly-regarded tournament doesn’t contain the star power it has in the past. But the excitement of a Proviso district school coming in as the favorite should help create some buzz for the tournament.

Action tips off on Dec. 27 and continues through Dec. 30.

Morgan Park vs Hinsdale Central, 9 am

Glenbrook North vs. St. Patrick, 10:30 am

New Trier vs. Fenwick, 12:15

Hillcrest vs. Morton, 3:45

Rockford Auburn vs. Proviso West, 5:15
