Boys' Basketball finishes their season

The boys' basketball team lost a close game against Estacada on Tuesday that would have sent them into the playoffs if they had won. Although the season did not end how they would have hoped, they had a great year and the players made some terrific improvements.

The following pictures were taken by Kristin Rubalcava earlier this season at a JV game against Gladstone.
