Northwest Invitational sponsored by
Mercer Island High School
Mercer Island High School will once again sponsor the 16-team invitational featuring
some of the top high school boys' teams in the West. This years event will take place on Friday, March 23rd through Sunday, March 25th. All sixteen teams taking part are either state or provincial play-off participants, including three state champions.
The
event was started seven years ago to promote inter-regional play
and to draw teams from outside the region to the Northwest. Previous invitational participants have included Cape Elizabeth
from Maine, Lakeland/Panas from New York, Arapahoe from Colorado, M.B.A. from Tennessee, Bonanza & Palo Verde from Nevada and Alta, Bountiful & Bingham from Utah. In its seventh year the invitational has grown
from five teams in 2006 to 16 in 2012, making it the largest of
its kind on the West Coast.
