West Seattle weekend scene: Wheelchair-basketball championships wrap up at WSHS

The junior/preps West Coast Conference championships of the National Wheelchair Basketball Association have wrapped up at the West Seattle High School gym, after a day and a half of games.

Seattle Adaptive Sports, which hosted the tournament, explains that WSHS is one of the few places in the region with two accessible courts in one place, and that’s why they play here, even though the group isn’t based here. Teams participating this weekend were from Seattle, Spokane, Portland, Berkeley, Phoenix, and San Diego, according to the tournament bracket.

(We don’t have the final score on today’s game but will add it when we do.) The national tournament is next up for the victorious athletes, in mid-April in Louisville, Kentucky. Then the next season starts up again late in the year.

    It looks to be mixed league.

    The Sonics were National and West Coast (two different teams if I read that correctly) champions in 2014.

Sorry, comment time is over.
