Salem will be playing for the consolation championship of the Duster Thomas Tournament at Pinckneyville on Wednesday.
Salem advanced to the consolation semi-finals with a 43-27 win over Trico on Tuesday afternoon. They were scheduled to play Chester in the semi-finals, but Chester had to back out and forfeit the game.
