The best in a very, very long time.
While a 50-44 loss in overtime to Seattle Christian at the district playoffs Wednesday knocked the CHS girls’ basketball team from the postseason, their success in 2014-2015 will linger on.
The Wolves, led by a splendid six-pack of seniors and the slam dunk MVP of the Olympic League (junior Makana Stone), went 15-7.
No CHS girls’ squad had won that many games in a decade-plus, and the Wolves also won the school’s first league title since 2002.
We’ll have a full story up later on the final game (coach David King has to put in some hours at his day job first), but here are 11 snappy behind-the-scenes photos to give you a feel for the finale.
Thank you to Amy King, Robyn Myers and Tiffany Briscoe for their exclusive pics.
And to the Wolves — Julia Myers, Monica Vidoni, Kacie Kiel, Wynter Thorne, Hailey Hammer, McKenzie Bailey, Mia Littlejohn, Madeline Strasburg, Kailey Kellner and Stone — you had an amazing season.
There will be sadness right now, but later, when you get a chance to look back at all you accomplished — when you hang that banner, when you tell your own children about it some day — you will be justifiably proud.
You put the roar back in Wolf basketball. Well done, ladies, from all of us.
