The 3A Puget Sound League has announced its Saturday postseason slate at Foss High School as teams jockey for spots in the District Tournament.

Seven teams from the PSL will advance to Districts. The top three finishers from both the Narrows and Nisqually divisions automatically qualify, while the final berth will be decided in a one-game playoff. The second- and third-place teams in each division have already clinched District Tournament spots and will remain idle until District play begins next week.

In the Narrows Division, Bellarmine (16-0), Lincoln (13-3), and Gig Harbor (10-6) have secured District Tournament berths. Silas (9-7), the fourth-place finisher, will play Peninsula in a winner-take-all playoff game for the final District spot. Mount Tahoma (8-8) and Central Kitsap (5-11) were eliminated from postseason contention.

The Nisqually Division sees River Ridge finish atop the standings at 11-5, earning a place in the PSL Championship Game. Lakes (10-6) and Timberline (7-9) have also clinched District berths and will await the start of District play next week. Peninsula (3-13) enters Saturday needing a win to keep its season alive, while North Thurston and Capital both finished the season at 2-14.

The Silas–Peninsula playoff game is scheduled for 3:45 p.m. on Saturday at Foss High School. The two teams met earlier this season, with Silas earning an 83-59 victory.

The nightcap features the PSL Championship Game, as Bellarmine takes on River Ridge at 7:15 p.m. Bellarmine won the previous meeting between the two programs on December 9 by a score of 71-46.
