CHELAN – The best high school basketball players from the District 6 All-League ranks came together at Chelan High School on March 10, for an afternoon of high-powered competition and crowd-pleasing excitement.

Players represented a spectrum of court talent, from 4A Eastmont in the Columbia Basin Big-9 to Entiat in the Central Washington 1B. Goats players Anabelle Finch, Ryan Rainville, and Isaac Wilson were among them. Shannon Bell and Jordan Long represented the Entiat Tigers.
