Chief Sealth International High School hosted seven visiting schools today for its 17th annual boys-basketball Jamboree, three days before their season begins.

We stopped in for the final 10-minute mini-game of the afternoon, in which Sealth (in gray) beat Sultan, 18-9. The Seahawks are led again this year by head coach Colin Slingsby:

The other six schools in today’s Jamboree were Auburn Riverside, Eastside Catholic, Issaquah, Nathan Hale, Roosevelt, and Vashon. JV teams played in the Denny International Middle School gym next door. The Sealth varsity boys play their first game of the year Tuesday night at Mount Rainier HS in Des Moines, and their first home game is Wednesday, 7 pm, vs. a traveling team from Australia; see the full schedule here.
