MOSES LAKE - Liberty Bell will make its first appearance in a state title football game after upending No. 1-ranked Odessa, 70-24, on Saturday, Nov. 26 on Lion's Field. Mountain Lion Coach Jeff Lidey credited the state 1B quarterfinals win to having a healthy team and focusing on the Tigers' key playmakers - quarterback Collin Martin and running back Gage Starkel. "They have a team for full talent, but those two boys have been carrying the team for a long time," Lidey said....

Naselle scored 11 touchdowns but failed conversion tries seven times. The Tigers scored ten touchdowns and successfully converted eight point after tries, which ended up the difference in the game. Odessa seniors Gage Starkel and Collin Martin were driving forces, with...
SPOKANE-In a battle of Inland Northwest schools, it was the Washington State Cougars doing the hunting from three-point land against the Eastern Washington Eagles.

ODESSA— The boys’ basketball team looks to increase their chances for a postseason run in the 2022-23 season as they started practice on Monday, Nov. 14. The Tigers ended their 2021 season in a loser-out game against Selkirk in a suspenseful overtime game, 60-57. At the time, junior Jacob Scrupps scored 19 points, five rebounds and senior Daeton Deife scored 14 points. Scrupps is a hopeful return after not playing the football season due to injury.

REARDAN-Coach Brian Graham welcomed 22 boys to the Screaming Eagles' first basketball practice of the season on Nov. 14. In his eighth season at the helm, Graham is optimistic his team will improve on last year's 10-12 record. "Last year we started two freshmen," he said, "but now they are sophomores. We have some kids with high-level skills, but overall, we are still young." Prior to the first practice, he met with each player to discuss the season. "They have high...
ODESSA—Head Coach Travis Schuh expects a solid basketball season for the Tigers, who had their first practice on Monday, Nov. 14. “Last year, we were only one game away from going to the regional basketball tournament,” Schuh said. “We only lost a couple of girls from last year.” Senior Grace Nelson hopes to return as a starting point guard later in the season. Nelson has been out for two seasons due to knee injuries. “Might not be until the end of December, beginning of January,” Schuh said. Schuh said three seniors are r...
DAVENPORT-A first-year head coach that has been an assistant coach for over 20 years. Four wrestlers returning that competed at the Tacoma Dome last year. And for the first time, two females ready to make school history. That's the current situation for the Davenport wrestling team, that began practice under new head coach Matt Schneider this week. Schneider, a local rancher that was an accomplished wrestler in his own right in the 1990's, will head the team after being an ass...

DAVENPORT - A girls basketball squad that finished 7th in the Northeast 2B before falling in its first district game in February at West Valley High School is expected to take a step forward this season. Davenport returns most of its roster from last season, which head coach Stacia Soliday should allow for improvement. "I think we'll be better," Soliday said. "We're a year older and more experienced." Soliday said the team will be led by seniors Lena Waters and Kiersten Kemmer...
Congratulations!...
Congratulations!...
DAVENPORT-The boys basketball season last season had a lot of promise into February, but an upset loss to Lind-Ritzville/Sprague at districts squashed hopes of a state playoff run. Much of that team returns for this season, but head coach Matt Henry said the goal for this year is to take a more day-by-day approach. "We need to be holding each other accountable every day," Henry said. "Eventually we'll look up and see how far we've come." Senior stars Tennesee Rainwater and...
REARDAN–This year's Screaming Eagles girls basketball team may be short handed, but Coach Bob Swannack believes his senior-laden squad will be competitive in the NE2B League. Swannack graduated eight players from last year's team that finished 13-7. The Screaming Eagles may be unable to field a junior varsity team this year due to low player turnout. "Because this team played in the shadow of last year's seniors, we are going to have to learn on the fly," Swannack said. Though...
REARDAN–The Screaming Eagles open the 2022-23 wrestling season with 20 athletes on the roster, several of whom competed in last year's state tournament. First year head coach Justin Neufeld praised his team for their cohesiveness, strong work ethic and positive attitude. "This year you're going to see hard-nosed wrestling," he said. "With the experience we have, I expect we will be strong again this year." Neufeld reserved special praise for team leaders JC Merriott, Conner K...
YAKIMA – The Odessa Tigers came into the WIAA 1B State Tournament as the No. 12-seed and minimal expectations. That made it all the more surprising when the Tigers finished in sixth-place in the tournament and were just a few-point-swing away from potentially finishing fifth. Odessa ended up in the fifth-place bracket after beating No. 5-seed Liberty Christian 3-2 on Nov. 10 before losing 3-0 to eventual semi-finalist Naselle, also on Nov. 10. Odessa continued to put on the u...
PASCO-After an admittedly disappointing 10th place finish at the 1B/2B State Cross Country Championships in 2021, the Davenport boys had double the fun this year. The Gorillas finished fifth as a team in the 5,000 meter race at Sun Willows Golf Course. Meanwhile, freshman Josie Wynecoop completed the course in 20:34.8 to finish sixth individually in the girls race. Fellow District 7 runner Josie McLaughlin of St. George's won the race. Junior Jaeger Jacobsen had the best race...
COLFAX – Reardan volleyball was in control of its own destiny after defeating Davenport on Nov. 2. Reardan needed two wins to secure the No. 3 seed in the district to advance to the State Tournament in Yakima. The Screaming Eagles were unable to do so, losing in three sets to the Upper Columbia Academy Lions in a loser-out game. Reardan was initially able to keep pace with Upper Columbia Academy – losing, albeit by a narrow margin, in the early stages of the first set 9-6. This was the closest the Screaming Eagles came to...
DAVENPORT-Last year, the Gorillas had to watch as rival Reardan celebrated a district playoff win on their home field. This year, the Davenport soccer team was doing the celebrating after a comeback 3-2 victory over the Brewster Bears in a District 6/7 crossover game sent the Gorillas to the B State Playoffs Saturday, Nov. 5. Brewster came to town as a team Davenport had already defeated twice in the regular season, but the Bears did not make it easy on the Gorillas. Ami Mora...

Though Tonas...
REARDAN-The Screaming Eagles slogged through the mud en route to a 6-0 win over the Colfax Bulldogs in both teams' last football game on Friday, Nov. 4. The field was splotches of green grass and snow at kickoff.. By the end of the first quarter, it was a quagmire; the mud obscured the players' numbers. Much of the game was back and forth in the middle of the field. Neither team experienced success through the air, so relied mostly on runs up the middle. Reardan's Jaquin Strob...
ODESSA-The Tigers beat the Mary Walker Chargers 62-26 in a district playoff game to qualify for the state playoffs on Friday, Nov. 4.
