Evergreen/Trico Boys Tournament Discussions

With Rainier beating Winlock on Tuesday, that put them in a position to claim the a high seed in the Evergreen Conference. Meanwhile Toledo's loss to Forks and then Fork's overtime loss to Rochester knocked out Toledo and then dropped the Spartans to the 5th place spot in the Evergreen.

Kalama and Ilwaco ADs will be in phone contact with each other . The boys' teams are tied now and if both win or both lose there will be a playoff Saturday at La Center.

The loser hosts Forks on Monday.

The game on Monday now looks more competitive depending which team from Froks shows up.

Evergreen
Winlock, Onalaska, Rainier, Montesano and Forks

Trico
Castle Rock, Stevenson, Ilwaco and Kalama

Forks Girls Takes a Big Step with Home Defeat of Toledo

As I have been watching the scores come in, only one really surprised....no, let's say shocked me. Forks jumped out to a 16-4 lead early in the game and never had to look back. No disrespect to the folks at Forks, but the 61-49 victory over Toledo caught me off guard. I still will change nothing about what I have said about Toledo, but now the Lady Spartans climbs higher in regard to the Girls Evergreen power teams. For the time being, Forks sits atop of the league with a perfect 4-0 league record, there is a lot of miles to travel between now and the end of the season, literally. They have shown that they can play tough on the road with a solid 50-41 win at Onalaska. Will they be able to go to Rainier, Winlock and Toledo and get road wins while still taking care of business with the rest of the league?
