From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Seamount Athletic League was an interscholastic high school league in Western Washington.

History

The Seamount League was founded in June 1991. [1] It merged with the Pierce County League in June 2001. [1]

In the late 2000s, the league had one of the highest ejection rates of any league in the state of Washington. [2]

In 2016 the members of the Seamount League were part of a major restructuring, which brought into existence the new North Puget Sound League and changes to the South Puget Sound League, and caused the Seamount League to fold. [3] [4]

Leadership

The league was led by three organizations: the Superintendents' Association, the Principals' Association, and the Activities / Athletics Directors' Association. [1] The Superintendents' Association determined the overall direction of the league.

Member schools

Participating school districts included the Highline School District ( Evergreen High School, Highline High School, and the Tyee Educational Complex), the Renton School District ( Hazen High School, Lindbergh High School, and Renton High School), [5] and the Tukwila School District ( Foster High School). [1]

At one point, Mount Rainier High School, Tyee High School (Tukwila/SeaTac, WA), Peninsula High School (Gig Harbor, WA), Tahoma High School (Covington/Maple Valley, WA), John F. Kennedy Catholic High School, Liberty High School (Issaquah, Washington), Enumclaw High School, and Mount Si High School (North Bend/Snoqualmie, WA) were Seamount League members.

New members could have been admitted by a vote of league principals and the superintendents of districts in which member schools are located. [1]
