(Spokane, WA) The State 2B and 1B boys and girls basketball tournaments wrapped up on Saturday night. Our crews have taken time to break down each tournament and came up with our All-Tournament teams for each classifications. We divided it by location and in this is the Spokane Arena edition. The 4A/3A are in the Tacoma Dome post and the 2A/1A’s are in the Yakima SunDome post.

The one rule we had was you had to have played in 3 games to be eligible. It could be quarterfinals to trophy day or could be Wednesday through Friday or Saturday.

Decisions were based on stats, personal observation and key moments. We awarded 1 MVP, 5 1st team and 5 2nd team spots only. There are always tough decisions to make but yest we didn’t want to waterdown the awards. This is meant to 100% celebrate great performances and bring a spotlight to 11 players in each classification. This is not meant to say others weren’t worthy, there were many hard choices and our crews did not agree on all picks.

We added some additional awards as well that bring so much fun to these tournaments and really set a great tone. Names, other than the MVP are listed in no particular order, you were either 1st team or 2nd team. Let’s get to our Winners!

We’re going to begin with our “Venue Winners” first then the All-Tournament teams.
