The Snohomish County Explosion Basketball Team out of Monroe, WA has two Trojan familiar faces on it – Pat Mattson and Shawn Wolters.

Pat and Shawn both played basketball here at EvCC for Coach Walker. Pat is an Everett High School graduate that played in the 2003-04 & 2004-05 seasons while Shawn graduated from Sultan High School and played in the 2007-08 season.

Now they are playing for the 2010 Explosion in the inaugural season of the NABL – National Athletic Basketball League.  This is a new professional minor league that is owner controlled.  For more information on the NABL  check out their website – www.na-bl.com

The three previous seasons, the Explosion has been apart of the IBL and was the 2007 IBL West Division Champions.  This is the second season that not only has the team been known as the Snohomish County Explosion but also plays their home games at Monroe High School. The first two seasons the team played at Comcast Arena and were known as the Everett Explosion.  Former Trojan & Co-Head Coach Darrell Walker and former Trojan Corby Schuh were on the inaugural Everett Explosion team.
