The Shorewood boys’ basketball team advanced in the Northwest District 3A tournament and eliminated Shorecrest from the tournament Saturday, Feb. 12, when the Thunderbirds came from behind in the fourth quarter to defeat the Scots on Shorecrest’s home floor.
Shorewood takes an 11-11 season-record into another loser-out tournament game Wednesday at Meadowdale (also 11-11). Meadowdale fell into the losers’ bracket by losing a Saturday semifinal game to top-seeded Glacier Peak 53-44 at Glacier Peak.
The winner of the Shorewood-Meadowdale game will advance to play for the District’s third State-tournament berth against the winner of another Wednesday game between Mountlake Terrace (11-11) and Oak Harbor (7-15).
The third-place game is scheduled for 6 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 19, just before the District championship game between Glacier Peak (20-3) and Mount Vernon (13-9).
Shorewood and Meadowdale split their two regular-Wesco-3A-season meetings, with Meadowdale winning 55-52 at Shorewood in January, and the Thunderbirds winning 55-53 at Meadowdale in early February.
Shorewood’s victory over Shorecrest came after the two teams had split their two regular-season Wesco 3A games, with Shorecrest winning on its home court in December and Shorewood winning on its home court in January.
In the Shorewood victory on the Shorecrest court Saturday, Shorewood outscored the Scots 16-6 in the fourth quarter. Semir Kadiric led the winning Thunderbirds with 15 points; Josh Hawkinson added 13.
For Shorecrest, Junior Chibuogwu scored 18, and Keith Shattuck added 16.
The Shorecrest loss ends the Scots’ season with an 11-11 season record after the Scots finished with an 8-6 Wesco 3A record. Chibuogwu led the Scots in season scoring with an average of 17.7 points in the 20 games he played. Shattuck averaged 12.0 points, playing in all 22 Shorecrest games.
