LIBERTY LAKE -The Odessa girls basketball team had enough firepower to top Chesterton Academy despite missing senior Melloney Deife last weekend, but the Tigers didn't have the firepower to overcome the attack of the rival Wilbur-Creston-Keller Wildcats a day later. Odessa pulled away from the Knights 55-35 Friday, Dec. 8 and fell to WCK 48-33 Saturday, Dec. 9. The Tigers entered their game in the HUB Sports Center 1-1 and were met with a challenge from the typically last-plac...
DAVENPORT - A rivalry game is rarely pretty, no matter how much better one team may be than the other on paper. Take, for instance, this year's Apple Cup, where Washington State forced undefeated Washington to have to put together a game winning drive just to hold off the bowl-less Cougars. Or the Los Angeles Rams always seeming to give the Seattle Seahawks fits despite the Seahawks often sporting the superior roster. And the cliché certainly applied to Tuesday night's...
LIBERTY LAKE - The Odessa boys basketball team got a 2-point win against Chesterton Academy last Friday, Dec. 8, but the 69-67 eek didn't leave a good taste in new head coach Mike Carlquist's mouth. "We didn't play very well," Carlquist said. "They shot really well." Carlquist surely preferred the play of Odessa against the rival Wilbur-Creston-Keller Wildcats Saturday, Dec. 9. The Tigers traveled for the second straight night to get a 62-56 overtime victory and improve to...
DAVENPORT - The Reardan boys basketball team was keen on snapping a two-game losing streak and ensuring that the rival Davenport boys would remain winless this season. Jaeger Jacobsen had other ideas. The senior poured in 31 points and snared 12 rebounds to boot as the Gorillas got their first win of the season in a WinterFest dub over the Screaming Eagles 53-50 Tuesday, Dec. 12. Jacobsen had somewhat struggled from the field in early season losses to Northwest Christian and...

SEATTLE--“I have dreamed a dream, but now that dream is gone from me.” Wilbur-Creston-Keller’s Wildcats dreamed of reaching the highest heights of 8-man football in the State 1B Championship game played in Husky Stadium at the University of Washington last Friday, December 1. But reality encroached upon their dream in the form of Liberty Bell’s Mountain Lions, who dominated most of the game to take their second straight State Championship by a score of 68-22. The opening...
ODESSA-The Tigers' first game under Mike Carlquist could have raised questions about how the boys would respond under a new head coach. As it turned out, Odessa gave its new boss a 60-point victory in a 77-17 dismantling of Selkirk Friday, Dec. 1. The victory was rather short-lived, as Odessa then dropped its second home game to visiting Oakesdale 55-46 Tuesday, Dec. 5. Odessa game out guns ablazin' against Selkirk, outscoring the Rangers 24-4, 23-4 and 23-7 in the first...

REARDAN-If one came into the Screaming Eagles' season opener against the Deer Park with no knowledge of WIAA alignments, they might have thought that the Reardan boys were the 1A school and the visiting Stags a 2B underdog. But it was the 2B Screaming Eagles routing 1A Deer Park in a non-conference game 70-41 Thursday, Nov. 30. Reardan found the ultimate balance in its dominant victory, the first of head coach Jake Green's Screaming Eagle career. Green played 11 players...

REARDAN-A very young Screaming Eagles girls basketball team started strong, but struggled to find consistent shot making in a 52-37 defeat to the 1A Deer Park Stags in the season opener Thursday, Nov. 30. Reardan played lockdown defense in the first quarter and found just enough offense between turnovers forced by the Stags' 2-3 zone press to take an 8-7 lead after eight minutes behind four points and four rebounds from Tenice Waters. Both teams had better shot making in the...

FEDERAL WAY-If it were the Olympics, each Gorilla soccer player would have returned from the West Side with a bronze medal around their necks for the team's third-place finish in the 1B/2B state playoffs that was achieved with a thrilling 4-3 victory over rival Northwest Christian Saturday, Nov. 18. But as it stands in a non-Olympic event, Davenport will have to appreciate the third-place trophy it achieved at Federal Way High School last weekend that was the outcome of a 2-0...
