In 33 hours and some change, the Coupeville High School boys’ basketball squad will host a home district playoff game.
Their opponent? Nobody knows.
Thanks to hectic weather, the Nisqually League keeps bumping their final games of the season, from Monday to Tuesday and now to Wednesday night.
While Vashon Island (6-1 in league play) has clinched the conference title, Cascade Christian (4-3), Seattle Christian (4-3) and Bellevue Christian (3-4) are in a logjam as they fight for playoff seeds #2-#4.
Cascade Christian (8-11 overall) and Seattle Christian (11-8) play tonight (maybe) and the winner is #2 (CC won the first time around).
Bellevue Christian (9-10) is supposed to travel to Vashon (12-7) and needs to win to have a chance to avoid the #4 seed.
If they topple the Pirates and finish 4-4, the Vikings will be tied with the loser of CC/SC.
Since they split the season series with both of those schools, and there would be no days left for any kind of on-court tiebreaker, probably safe to assume a coin would be flipped.
Now, if things get cancelled for a third straight night?
We’ll make another assumption and say the league standings will be frozen as is, with #1-#4 being Vashon, CC, SC and BC.
