Kaila Lafferty will be competing at Bellingham High School at the girls wrestling tournament WIAA region 1 on Saturday as well. Maddie Young will be an alternate.
Gymnastics
The girls gymnastics team will not be competing as a team, but will have plenty of athletes competing in individual events. Their meet is Saturday at Sammamish High School.
Boys Basketball
The boys are in “win or go home” mode now. They play today (Friday) at 3:00 pm at Juanita High School against Newport High School. The boys lost to Newport on the road in mid-January. The Beavers hope to bounce back today. Winner advances to the Kingco 4A consolation quarterfinals on Tuesday with the loser having their season come to an end.
