TACOMA, WASH

The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) has officially released the bracket and full schedule for the 2026 District 3/4 4A Boys Basketball Tournament. Tournament play begins Thursday, February 12, and concludes with the District Championship Game on Saturday, February 21 at Auburn High School. All games will be played according to the official schedule and designated sites listed below.

This year’s draw features a highly competitive slate of teams from across Districts 3 and 4. Puyallup, fresh off a state finalist finish last season and a second straight SPSL Championship, enters with momentum and high expectations. Meanwhile, Auburn, the defending District 3/4 champion, looks to repeat after a championship run in 2025 that included a 55–47 victory over Camas in the district final.

A clash of NPSL vs GSHL highlights the slate on Tuesday where Kentwood travels to Camas for a spot in the State Tournament. Emerald Ridge faces fellow SPSL foe Bonney Lake with the winner booking a ticket to the dance with the Panthers searching for their first ever State appearance. Puyallup faces an up and coming Kentridge team after the Vikings rallied against Kennedy Catholic on Friday night. And the top seed Auburn hopes to use their home court advantage against Skyview.
