Where: Bellevue College
Classification: 3A
Records: Glacier Peak 20-3; Cleveland 17-8.
AP Rankings: Glacier Peak (No. 4); Cleveland (No. 10).
How they got to regionals: Glacier Peak lost to Lynnwood 48-42 in the Northwest District championship to claim the district’s No. 2 seed. Cleveland defeated West Seattle 57-54 to secure the Sea-King District’s No. 3 seed.
Players to watch: Glacier Peak—Paisley Johnson, So., G; Samantha Fatkin, So., G; Sadie Mensing, Sr., G; Kayla Watkins, So., P; Natalie Rasmussen, Jr., G. Cleveland—Jayde Christopher, Sr., G; Aqeelah Williams, Sr., G; Joyce Harrell, Sr., C.
Breakdown: At first glance, Cleveland’s record and seeding from its district tournament don’t seem all that impressive, but it’s what the Eagles have done the past two seasons that should grab the Grizzlies’ attention. The Eagles are the two-time defending state champions. But taking down the Grizzlies won’t be easy. Glacier Peak has lost just three games this season, two of those coming at the hands of No. 1-ranked Lynnwood.
