SPOKANE -- Hoopfest 2008 concluded with a record turnout and record temperatures.

Becky Schmidlkofer

Rising like Sunday's temperatures, this 15-year-old player rises above it all.

The 19th year of Hoopfest is in the books, and it will be that participants and spectators may be talking about for many years to come..

This year, more than 6400 teams registered to play - a new record. The previous record was set in 2002.

Of course, the medical tent at Hoopfest is always busy - especially when the weather is this hot.

Despite the fact the tournament is concluded, we'd still like your submissions for your best photos.
