The Orcas Christian School Saints entered the holiday break ranked #1 in the state of Washington in Boys 1B basketball.

The Saints built their case for this status with a historic 4-0 start that was highlighted with an upset over last year’s champions, the Lummi Blackhawks. On Dec. 18, the Saints handed the Blackhawks their second loss in a 33-game win streak that spanned 2 years. In their home opener, the Saints defeated the high flying and high powered Tulaip Hawks in dynamic fashion and soon after, the Saints knocked off Grace Academy and Lopez on the road. Orcas Christian has produced 210 points in four games while allowing 126.
