Big shout out to our Tahoma Lady Bears Varsity Basketball Team. The girls started out with a bang this year and ended their season convincing everyone around them to become believers. In the final game of the post season, they lost by two points in overtime to Kentridge High School. It was a heartbreaking loss for the girls who were so close to advancing to the WAIA State Tournament in the Tacoma Dome.
The majority of the girls varsity team this year was made up of freshman and sophomores, so look out next year, the sky’s the limit for this group of talented young ladies!
The girls have also made a commitment to each other to play together year round. They will be playing in multiple local tournaments, as well as traveling to Nashville, TN, San Diego, CA, Oregon City, OR and Yakima, WA, allowing them to compete against some of the more competitive teams around the country.
Check out what is going on with the girls at www.ladybearsbasketball.com for upcoming events, team rosters and other information regarding fundraising and the Lady Bears Basketball Booster Club.
If you would like to donate to the Tahoma Lady Bears Basketball Boosters program to help support these young ladies, please email us at tahomagirlsbasketball@gmail.com or donations can be mailed to Lady Bears Basketball Boosters, PO Box 1135 Maple Valley, WA 98038.
Come watch and support your Tahoma Lady Bears next season!
