Basketball playoffs, update #1: West Seattle High School girls win; boys lose but still in it

Quick updates on tonight’s West Seattle High School basketball playoff games:

GIRLS WIN: The Wildcat women beat Holy Names 53-39 at Nathan Hale, per the update just in from Seattle Times (WSB partner) sports reporter Sandy Ringer. The game was close until the fourth quarter, when, she reports, Holy Names failed to score. Photographer Steph Brusig was at the game for WSB and we’ll have another report later with photos. (Update: Here’s that link.)

BOYS LOSE BUT STILL IN IT: Earlier, the WSHS boys lost to Lakeside, 68-50, but they are still in it, with a game at 5:45 pm tomorrow vs. Bainbridge, loser out, winner to districts. That game will be played at Garfield HS.

    Way to go WSHS women! I heard they were down two star players. Great work!

    Down two starters, with only 1 varsity sub on the bench… maybe that’s why Sonya Elliot is coach of the year? The girls showed so much grit and togetherness. Congrats to Lani, Izzy, Charli, Annalisa, Lexi and Emily for stepping up huge as a team to make this happen… special shout out to Lexi and Emily for playing HUGE… Lydia and Gabby, we miss u… Lady wildcats, you are tough! Thank you so much for your talent, hard work, and modeling Westside Pride!
