What to watch

Squalicum will host a rematch after the two teams met in Bellingham last season: Squalicum beat Blaine 64-56 on Jan. 3, 2025. Expect the Storm to use home-court energy and local support to build on that result; Blaine will be looking for an early-season statement on the road. This is a chance for both teams to sharpen their lineups and pick up a key league victory.
