The Enumclaw Middle School boys basketball team earned a Plateau League championship by finishing their season with a perfect 10-0 record. Even more impressive, this marked the third year in a row the Timberwolves finished as undefeated league champs. The EMS team is a combined group of sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade students. “Coach Patterson and I have had great talent and amazing young men come through our program these last few years,” head coach Sam White said in an emailed report. “Their work ethic and high expectations is what has separated them from their competition.” The accompanying photo was taken following the team’s final game of the season. Pictured, from left, are: Brice Dunham, Jack Connelly, Anderson Blair, Luke Cheney, Levi Hanson, Hunter Gura, head coach Sam White, Zelalem Poulin, Jack Wasson, Kortland Patterson, Liam Harding, Ryan McKee-Price, Logan Johnson and assistant coach Jason Patterson.
