The Shoreline CC Men's Basketball Team won a sluggish 81-76 game over North Seattle on Saturday afternoon in the SCC Gym. SCC jumped out to a 15 point lead early in the first half, but North Seattle fought back to cut the lead to 40-37 at half-time. SCC again pushed ahead in the second half to take a double digit lead but NSCC fought back in the game and trailed by one at 51-50. Shoreline again regained control but could not shake NSCC off and the Dolphins won by five.
 
Shoreline was led by Shawn West with 17 points. Jesse Vaughan added 16 points and Sean Jones scored 14 with 10 rebounds. Ryan McCorkle and Alfie Miller-Soukasen added 11 and 10 points.
