The high-school basketball postseason has begun, and the West Seattle High School girls were first out of the gate with a game tonight. The Wildcats hosted Holy Names in the Metro League championship tournament.

Despite being down at halftime, West Seattle roared back to pull out the win, 46-39.

Head coach Darnell Taylor and the Wildcats (12-7) next face top-seeded Garfield on the Bulldogs’ home court.

That game is scheduled for 5:30 pm Wednesday (February 8th).
