Endowment Basketball Games

West Salem High School's boys and girls basketball teams will be involved in OSAA "endowment games". "Endowment games" allow schools to play games in excess of the normal season limit. In exchange, schools send gate receipts to the OSAA for the purpose of funding the "OSAA Foundation".

The Titan boys will play endowment games on December 1st versus Skyview of Vancouver, Washington at West High and December 3rd versus Crescent Valley in Corvallis. The girls will play an endowment game against Beaverton High at West Salem on December 15th.

No passes or ASB cards are accepted for endowment games. Ticket prices are $6.00 for adults and $4.00 for students.

The goals of the OSAA Foundation are:
- to help ensure the future of educational high school activities in Oregon
- to maintain and enhance participation opportunities for the nearly 130,000 Oregon high school students involved in OSAA sanctioned activities annually
- to increase statewide awareness regarding the benefits of participation in educational high school activities.

Coaching Openings

West Salem is still looking for both a head softball and head boys golf coach. We are working through the process and have had contact with several applicants for both positions. While we are still looking for the "right fit", we are moving in a positive direction.
