Beavers Win Big in the Classroom and on the Court
The Woodland High School women’s basketball team has redefined what it means to be "student-athletes" this season. While their performance on the hardwood kept fans on the edge of their seats, their performance in the classroom set a state-wide gold standard.
Academic Champions
The Beavers finished the Fall 2025 semester with a staggering cumulative GPA of 3.93. This isn't just a personal best for the program; it is the highest GPA of any 2A women’s basketball team in Washington State. In a world where balancing practice schedules and rigorous coursework is a constant challenge, these young women have proven that excellence is a habit, not an act.
A Season of Grit
On the court, the team proved they belonged among the elite. Led by Head Coach Glen Flanagan and assistants Ben Nelson, Josh Bunger, and Nicole Guthrie, the Beavers battled to a T-2 finish in the 2A GSHL.
Their postseason run was highlighted by a resilient victory in the district tournament. Although they narrowly missed a trip to the state-qualifying third-place game, their tenacity—or "GRIT"—was undeniable to anyone who attended a home game this winter.
Honoring Our Seniors
As the season concludes, the program says a heartfelt goodbye to three cornerstone seniors:
- Jolie Oathes
- Madison Walker
- Addi Christensen
Interestingly, this trio's impact extends far beyond the gymnasium. All three played pivotal roles on the Beaver softball team that secured a fifth-place finish at the State tournament in Spring 2025. Their versatility and leadership have left an indelible mark on WHS athletics.
"Our varsity players have set the ultimate example for our younger Beavers. They epitomize the top-tier student-athlete, proving you can dominate the scorebook and the grade book simultaneously."
A Proud Community
To the entire women’s basketball team: Your community is incredibly proud of you. Thank you for representing Woodland with such class, intelligence, and competitive spirit. You have set a high bar for those who will follow in your footsteps.
Congratulations, Ladies!
