Championship Game
(1) Colfax 69, (9) Adna 56

The championship carried deeper meaning for the Bulldogs program beyond the perfect record. Colfax played the season in memory of longtime head coach Reece Jenkin, who passed away. Jenkin had guided the Bulldogs to multiple successful seasons, including the program’s 2024 state championship, and was widely respected across Washington small-school basketball. His son, Adrik Jenkin, helped lead the Bulldogs’ title run and delivered a championship performance in the final, adding an emotional layer to Colfax’s undefeated season. The victory gives the Bulldogs another trophy to add to their program’s history, which also includes state titles in 2012 and 2024, while honoring the legacy of the coach who helped build the program.

(4) Reardan 52, (3) Brewster 38
She played both sides very well. Key player for moving the ball around the arc and into the paint for post plays. Put up 11-14 points by herself. One crucial player was in the second half when she missed her last free throw, got her own rebound, was getting pressured on the near side line from Paige Wulf, and in a high-IQ basketball moment, bounced it off Wulf’s leg to make it out of bounds on Brewster. This set up her team for another offensive possession and allowed them to score and gain momentum. Reardan will play tomorrow against Davenport (#9 seat) on game 16 at 2:00 pm. Brewster moves down to the constellation bracket against Northwest Christian (#2 seat) on game 18 at 10:30 am.
