These two districts are combined and this bracket consists of 6 teams with a double elimination style. The top 2 seeds got a bye for the first round. The 3rd seed Selah played the 6th seed Othello, Selah would win 67-55. 4th seed East Valley (Yakima) played 5th seed Ellensburg. East Valley (Yakima) would win 58-44. Othello and Ellensburg would go to the losers side of round 2 in loser out games. East Valley (Yakima) and Selah would advance to the winners side of the next round. I will now split each round into a winners side and a losers side, the “winners side”, (meaning they have yet to lose) and the “losers side” (meaning the have lost once and all games are win or go home).

Selah and East Valley (Yakima) will go to the losers side of round 2.

Selah and Othello would have their seasons end, East Valley (Yakima) and Ellenburg would advance to the losers side of round 3.
