Gonzaga Prep will face first place Central Valley for the No. 1 seed to the regional state tournament (Photo: SWX)
Central Valley and Gonzaga Prep meet Friday night for the 4A Dist. 7 championship and a No. 1 seed the state regional tournament.
The game, which gets underway following the girls district championship game, starts at roughly 8:30 and will be televised and webcast on SWX.
The Bears (16-2) have long been the favorite to take the No. 1 seed going into the state tournament. But the Bullpups (14-4) are the defending state champions and would certainly like the most advantageous path possible to repeat what they did last year.
The winner of tonight's game gets the No. 1 seed at regionals, while the loser has to play again on Saturday against the winner between Ferris and Lewis & Clark. That game on Saturday is a loser-out game, while the winner gets the No. 2 seed to regionals.
