Just heard that Graham-Kapowsin has hired Frank Parker as its boys basketball coach, according to athletic director Bryan Streleski.

"He's got good basketball knowledge and experience," Streleski said. "He's a strong leader and focuses on academics."

Parker was previously an assistant coach for the Auburn Riverside girls program.

The Stadium-Shelton Narrows League baseball playoff game was rained out on Thursday. The loser-out contest will be made up today when the Tigers visit the Highclimbers at 4 p.m.

Because the winner of that game was supposed to meet Central Kitsap at 3 p.m., today's second-round games have been pushed back to Saturday and the games originally scheduled for Saturday will now be played on Monday.

Here's the updated schedule:

Saturday
At Heidelberg
Game 3: Shelton vs. Central Kitsap, noon
Game 4: Bellarmine Prep vs. Gig Harbor, 3 p.m.
Game 7: Title Game -- South Kitsap vs. Olympia, 6 p.m. (winner No. 1, loser No. 2 to WCD)

Monday
At Heidelberg
Game 5: G3 loser vs. G4 loser, noon (winner No. 5 to WCD, loser out)
Game 6: G3 winner s. G4 winner, 3 p.m. (winner No. 3, loser No. 4 to WCD)

What to watch today

Tied atop the SPSL North standings with identical records, Kentridge and Jefferson will square off for the league title. The Chargers and Raiders played to a 3-3 tie earlier this season. The loser of this game will likely fall to third place behind Tahoma, which faces a one-win Federal Way squad today and vault into second place with a victory.
When: 3:30 p.m.
Where: Jefferson
