Plenty of Seattle sports action coming up this weekend…

The Kraken are facing the Ducks in Anaheim tomorrow.

Anaheim is in the middle of a rough stretch, they’re 3-14 over their last 17 games.

Meanwhile, the Kraken have not lost in regulation in nearly two weeks.

Coverage starts at 4:30 and puck drops at 5 on KGMI.

 

The Seahawks follow on Sunday morning as they travel to Tennessee to face the Titans.

Seattle’s looking to maintain momentum from Monday night’s big win over the Eagles.

Geno Smith is likely to play after missing the last two games, but the status of Devon Witherspoon and Jamal Adams is still up in the air.

The Titans were eliminated from the playoffs last week with their overtime loss to the Texans.

The playoff race in the NFC is heating up following the Los Angeles Ram’s 30-22 win over the Saints last night to vault them one win ahead of the Seahawks.

Coverage for Seahawks-Titans begins at 8 am and kickoff is at 10 Sunday morning on KPUG.

 

The Washington men’s basketball team edged out Eastern Washington 73-66 last night to win their fourth straight game.

Keion Brooks Jr. led the effort with 20 points for the Huskies.

They now improve to 8-3 on the season as they begin Pac-12 conference play for the final time next Friday.

 

Running down the high school basketball scores from last night…

The Sehome boys edged Sedro-Woolley 52-47

The Ferndale girls fell to Stanwood 60-33

 

And lots of great inter-county matchups tonight…

The Ferndale boys and girls play Bellingham

Meridian plays Mount Baker

Nooksack Valley takes on Blaine

Lynden plays Sedro-Woolley

And the Squalicum boys are at Archbishop Murphy
