That’s the trip a group of Special Olympics basketball players from The Rock made this week, as the six-player South Whidbey Wind squad captured bronze at the state tournament.
The Junior/Senior team (for players 21 and under) included Talia Petosa, Andrew Bishop, Zoe Thompson, Lucas Etzell, Amira Jackson and Dylan Matros.
The squad, which draws players from South, Central and North Whidbey, had previously won gold at regionals.
They are coached by Mike Etzell and David Bishop.
