2020-21 Season is a Wrap
Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus the WIAA pushed the season back several months into 2021 and shortened it to conference only play. As a result, we only played 3 other teams within the Lake Washington School District "Pod:" Juanita, Eastlake and Redmond High Schools.
The Varsity finished the shortened season with a 7-1 record including an undefeated home campaign. The Junior Varsity finished the season with a 5-2 record and were also undefeated at home.

Thank you Seniors!
We celebrated our three Seniors final year on Tuesday, April 28 during the second to last home game. We wish Seniors Brooke Filan, Ellie Pederson and Sophia Liesse the best of luck in your future endeavors. It's been a pleasure watching you grow as players and are forever in your debt in helping rebuild the Lady Kangs into championship form. Thank you for the memories! You won't be forgotten.

Last Year's Championship Dream Season
Last year, the Lady Kangs had an incredible run all the way to the 3A State Championship game! On their way to a 22-7 season, they repeated as KingCo 3A regular season and tournament champions, captured Arizona's Cactus Jam championship and landed five players on the all conference team. Please see 2019-20 Championship Season for a recap of the girls' amazing year.

What distinguishes a great player is her presence. When she goes on to the court, her presence dominates the atmosphere.
