The 4th grade boys WBDA basketball team opened their season and careers at the North Bend Optimist Tournament. Wayne competed in a six-team division and came away with a runner-up finish. Wayne opened up the day with an 18-8 win over Guardian Angels Central Catholic White and finished pool play with a 28-13 win over Raymond Central to advance to the championship game. The final saw Wayne battle Milford in a great game and fell just short, 28-23 to take home runner-up honors. Congratulations boys!
