It was a hard-fought game on a blistering day in Arlington, but Coach Arike Ogunbowale and her Blue Team reigned victorious by defeating Coach Marina Mabrey and her Red Team, 48-20.

Ogunbowale and Mabrey are members of the WNBA’s Dallas Wings who, along with Special Olympics Texas, hosted a Unified Game on Tuesday featuring five-on-five basketball at the Wings’ home court at College Park Center.

The Unified Game featured Team Arike vs. Team Marina and the remaining Dallas Wings players acted as coaches, referees, announcers, and fans.
