In today's opening round of the girls Class 3A state basketball tournament at the Tacoma Dome, Capital and Yelm will face teams that use pressure defense to win.
The opposing coach's directive never changed.
Quite simply, Enumclaw High swarmed back into the Class 3A state boys basketball tournament on Friday night.
Coming into the season, Colleen Wells wasn’t sure what to expect in her ninth year as girls head basketball coach at Capital.
Each time Alex Williams got the basketball inside the key during practice, his coach yelled, "Shoot the ball."

OLYMPIA - When Capital began the season, the offense was supposed to come primarily from Colin Bossio.
Capital senior Michael Marshall already has qualified for the boys swimming state championships in three individual events, but he's now the state leader in one event - the 100 backstroke.
The Capital Ice girls 15-and-under volleyball team won the Cowlitz pre-qualifier in Longview.
OLYMPIA - The game was much closer than the last meeting seven days ago, but the outcome was the same between the Capital and Olympia boys basketball teams Monday night.
