With go-to center Zach Banner forced to sit his 6-foot-9 frame on the bench with foul trouble for much of the game, a pair of undersized guards came to the rescue for Lakes High.
The seven losses in his 24-7 season record might not be what Tumwater senior James Nolan envisioned as he prepares for next week’s Mat Classic XXIV.
In a dominating performance, the Tahoma Bears wrestling squad dismantled 16 other schools at the 4A Region III Championships on Saturday at Thomas Jefferson High School.
Graham-Kapowsin High wrestling coach Scott Stirts worked hard this season to fill his team’s schedule with some of the toughest meets in the region.
Talk about bittersweet irony.
A year ago, Enumclaw left the Region III wrestling tournament having qualified nine wrestlers for the Class 3A state tournament and well on its way to earning yet another state title.
Friday’s highlights
High school basketball stars will get plenty of attention when the 4A West Central/Southwest bi-district playoffs start Tuesday night.
Dominick Francks shot and shot and shot and shot some more.
It’s weeks like these – the start of the postseason – when Jackie Robinson knows just whom to chat with. When an all-important game is on the horizon, Robinson calls on an NBA coach he knows pretty well.
Foss High junior Dezmyn Trent remembers having to watch the final minutes of the fourth quarter and the three following overtimes from the bench in last week’s loss to Class 3A Narrows League foe Capital.
Wilson High clinched the Narrows League 3A boys basketball title last week. That didn’t stop the fourth-ranked Rams from cutting down the nets Wednesday night after holding off Lincoln, 64-62.
