Description:

Wenatchee High School began interscholastic athletic competition in 1905 and has always participated in Washington state' s highest classification (now 4A). WHS has one of the oldest, most illustrious prep athletic traditions in the Northwest. In 1910, Wenatchee High's gridders became the first team from east of the Cascade mountains to be awarded the state of Washington football championship. Although football produced the most early success for Wenatchee High athletics, the school developed one of the strongest prep track traditions in the United States, as well as the state of Washington, beginning after World War I. The school also became known for dominating girls' basketball teams during the 1920s and early 1930s until the program was eliminated when funding disappeared in The Great Depression. When girls' high school athletics were re-born in the state of Washington during the 1970s, WHS immediately developed very competitive teams.
