WHS basketball team competes at state tourney

Whittell High School’s boys basketball team was not able to put together consecutive state championships.

The Warriors, seeded second going into last weekend’s championships in Las Vegas, lost to Spring Mountain 69-54 on Feb. 27. Spring Mountain went on to be crowned state champions.

WHS finished the regular season with a 15-1 record.

Whittell should be able to return a strong team next season with only four members graduating.
