Other Interesting Games Tonight

Centralia at Hoquiam Evergreen 2A Boys)

Ranked Hoquiam and near ranked Centralia will play tonight in the Grizzlies home gym. There may not be a hotter player in Washington State High School Basketball than Hoquiam Senior Joey Wayman. In recent days, he poured in 44 against Tumwater but has had solid enough play to be nominated to the McDonald’s All-American Basketball Game. In addition, Hoquiam Junior Daniel Adams has been playing well enough to give the Grizzles and excellent chance in all of their games.

Mark Morris at Kelso

2A powerhouse Mark Morris will play a non-league match with cross-river 4A rival Kelso. While the Highlanders have had a tough time in their league that includes highly ranked Columbia River and Mountain View, Mark Morris has suffered two losses to 4A Mountain View and an Australian travel team.

Hats Off to a Defensive Hero

Hats off to 6’4” Chad Pegg of Kelso High School. He inherited the unenviable defensive task of guarding 6’10” Steven Bjornstad of Columbia River High School. Bjornstad averaged 18.6 points, 10.8 rebounds and 4 blocks per game last season. He also shot 80 percent from the field.

On Tuesday night, Bjornstad scored only 6 points thanks to the constant pressure applied by Pegg and his Highlander teammates.

Defensively, Bjornstad got his share with 20 rebounds and 3 blocks in Columbia River’s 44-38 victory over Kelso.
