Wrangell basketball teams play at home this weekend

For the second week in a row, poor weather last weekend forced the Wrangell High School boys and girls basketball teams to cancel their travel plans for games in Metlakatla. The contests were to have been the teams' first away games of the season.

Travel should not be an issue for the Wrangell teams when they play at home this week against Haines on Friday and Saturday, assuming the Haines' squads can make it to town.

Tip-off for the boys game is scheduled for 5 p.m. Friday, with the girls game to follow.

The squads will play again Saturday, with the boys game starting at 5 p.m. Boys senior recognition is set for after the game, with the girls game after that, according to the schedule on the school district website. A senior cheer recognition is planned for halftime of the girls game.

Aside from the normal limitations for spectators, senior basketball players and senior cheerleaders will each be allowed four household members in the stands Saturday, the district said.

The games will be live-streamed on the school district's YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/WPSD.usStreaming.
