Third annual Back 2 Bellingham Battle set for May 20

 For the third year in a row, the Bellingham Slam will face the Western Washington University men’s basketball alumni team in an exhibition contest during the university’s annual Back 2 Bellingham alumni weekend.

The event, dubbed the Back 2 Bellingham Battle, is set for 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 20 at WWU’s Wade King Center. The game will pit the Slam against a squad comprised of former Viking standouts from the past decade. With several players on the Slam being Western graduates themselves, this is sure to be a fun and unique event.
