WALLA WALLA—The Walla Walla Boys Varsity basketball team hosted the Hermiston Bulldogs in a conference game Saturday January 10th. Hermiston opened up the game on fire making their first five shots in a row (which included 3 three-pointers) to take a 13-8 lead. The Bulldogs first two misses of any kind came at the free throw line, missing both free throws following the first shooting foul of the game. From that point on they came back to earth as the Walla Walla Blue Devils went on a 14-3 run for the remainder of the first quarter. The most i...
WALLA WALLA-The Walla Walla Boys Varsity basketball team hosted the Kamiakin Braves in a conference game on Saturday January 4th. #2 Dylan Ashbeck opened the scoring for Walla Walla. A few possessions later, #10 Michael Cornia had a nice block in the paint on defense. Ashbeck was active on the boards and scoring from all over the floor with 10 points on hot shooting in the 1st quarter. Walla Walla led at the end of the quarter 16-12. In the 2nd quarter, Kamiakin would cut the lead to one point a...
Dayton-Waitsburg's boys basketball team came out firing with two three-pointers and a quick lead but in the end D-W couldn't maintain the wild, fast, and physical play from DeSales in the league loss 63-40. Sophomore shooting guard Dylan Bledsoe, sporting a new haircut, scored D-W's first six points. He would finish with only eight for the game. Junior guard Mason Finney scored the teams other five points of the first quarter with a great shot off an inbounds pass and then with 45 seconds left...
With the win this week over the Philadelphia Eagles, the Seahawks season continues. Minnesota's upset win over the New Orleans Saints also helped. Going into the playoffs, the top two seeds are the #1 seed 49ers and #2 seed Green Bay Packers. The Seahawks are the #5 seed and the Vikings are the #6 seed. Because the NFL reseeds teams after the first round, that means Seattle will be playing in Green Bay next weekend instead of San Francisco. Though it is not likely, it also sets up a possibility...
PRESCOTT-Prescott hosted Oakesdale Saturday January 4th in an early afternoon conference game. The crowd size was smaller than usual, likely due to the holiday break and 4 p.m. start time. The first quarter belonged to #12 Jonathan Cardenas. He opened the scoring in the first quarter with a jump shot then put on a show hitting three pointers. His first was an open shot that barely moved the net. On his next three, he was well-guarded and the shot was contested by Oakesdale but it didn't matter....

MILTON-FREEWATER-Dayton-Waitsburg's girls basketball team came so close to flipping on a switch and getting their first win of the season at the Mac-Hi Christmas tournament. Instead they dropped a 38-30 non-league contest to Stanfield. D-W played even with the Tigers for three quarters, it was the opening period's 14-7 and subsequently the seven-point deficit that they could never quite overcome. Dayton-Waitsburg was also bit by the turnover bug as they had 10 more turnovers than Stanfield...
MILTON-FREEWATER-Oh so close. Junior Mason Finney's shot from the top of the arc bounced off the rim as the buzzer sounded for a heart-breaking loss, 53-52, Saturday afternoon to Stanfield at the Mac-Hi Christmas Tournament. It hurt even more for the once again shorthanded squad because they held a 44-37 advantage with seven minutes to go in the game. They had a 50-49 lead with 1:35 left and it was tied up at 52 after two free throws by Junior Wyatt Costello with 19 seconds left after D-W had...
Okay admit it, you’re still not quite sure what happened against San Francisco last week. The first half had you wondering how bad the final score would look. Then Marshawn Lynch dove into the end zone and you started to believe in the team again. In the final seconds it looked like Seattle was going to pull off an upset at home and win the division title. Instead, Seattle fans now have to navigate the NFL playoffs as a #5 seed. Yes, a #5 seed has won the Super Bowl before. It happened back in 2007 when the #5 seeded New York Giants beat an u...
MILTON-FREEWATER-Friday December 27th the Dayton-Waitsburg boys basketball team traveled to McLoughlin High School in Oregon for the first day of a holiday tournament. The boys would face Irrigon in the first round matchup. D-W quickly found themselves in a ten point deficit after Irrigon shot 8-16 from the field in the quarter. D-W shot only 5-14 in the first quarter and it ended with Irrigon leading 22-12. Irrigon's hot hand would leave them in the second quarter as DW began to whittle away at...
MILTON-FREEWATER—The Dayton-Waitsburg girls varsity basketball team played in a holiday tournament Friday the 27th at McLoughlin High School in Milton-Freewater against Irrigon. D-W started off the game shooting 2-19 from the field in the first quarter with all five points coming from Sadie Seney. D-W would chip away at the lead in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, with a balanced scoring attack bringing the score to 40-32 Irrigon at the end of the 3rd quarter. However, a big game by JaLay Burns leading all scorers with 34, proved to be too much for D-...

TOUCHET-The Prescott boys basketball team traveled to Touchet Friday December 21st for their 2nd conference game of the year. Prescott quickly established an early lead in this one, starting the game on an 11-0 run in the first quarter. They ended the 1st quarter with a 16-4 lead. The Touchet Indians started off the 2nd quarter by hitting an open 3-pointer to cut the score to 16-7, but Prescott would answer with another run, this time a 9-0 run that opened the lead to 25-7. From here both teams...
With the loss against the Arizona Cardinals, the Seattle Seahawks need to beat the San Francisco 49ers next week in order to win the division. Unfortunately, the injuries suffered at running back this week will make that very difficult. Losing Rashaad Penny (torn ACL) against the Rams was bad enough but to lose both Chris Carson (hip) and C.J. Prosise (broken arm) against the Cardinals could be too much to overcome. Since all three of the injuries are reported to be season ending, the Seahawks will need to find replacements between now and next...
If they gave out points for hustle and hard work Dayton-Waitsburg would have won by a blowout Saturday night. Instead, the Dayton-Watisburg team dropped their first league contest of the year 56-46 to visiting Kittitas. Due to the fact that D-W was struggling with illness all week, they knew coming into the contest that they would have to outwork the other team because of an incomplete varsity roster. “I think that because we had those illnesses, we had to out hustle them because we didn’t have the depth we normally have,” Junior 6’1...
One day after their first league game was cancelled because of illness, the Dayton-Waitsburg girls basketball team opened league play with a 57-35 home loss to Kittitas Saturday night. In the last game of the season at the Dayton gym, the girls pushed themselves to the limit and played well in the loss. The rest of D-W’s home games will be played at the Waitsburg gym. “I thought this was one of our best games yet,” Senior Captain Kira Boggs said. “No more setbacks, we’re only going up from here.” D-W Head Coach Tamira Cully also recognized...
PRESCOTT—Prescott boys basketball hosted Walla Walla Valley Academy Saturday December 21st for a non conference game. The teams would trade leads several times in the first quarter before ending the quarter in a 17-17 tie. In the 2nd quarter, WWVA would slowly build up a six point lead to end the half at 35-29. With the score 40-33 in the 3rd quarter, Prescott hit a three pointer to cut the lead to 40-36 but WWVA would go on a 13-5 run to close out the quarter 53-41. WWVA would go on to win the game 63-49. Omar Velazco had a great shooting n...
As the clock wound down in the tight contest between neighboring schools Prescott and Dayton-Waitsburg, the intensity from inside the Dayton gymnasium increased until it overflowed, following a narrow D-W win of 54-49 in the non-league contest. To set the scene, the Dayton-Waitsburg boys basketball team had not won a game in 23 tries, had come off three tough losses featuring poor shooting, and the Prescott Tigers came to the contest after convincing victories over Bickleton and Moses Lake Chris...
YAKIMA-The Prescott girls basketball team traveled to Riverside Christian on December 14th to play in their second game of the season. They won their first game in overtime at Dayton, against the D-W JV girls team. This game got off to a similar start. The first quarter belonged to Prescott and #32 Jean Rowlette, who poured in 10 points on shots in the lane. #12 Jamileth Saldana added an outside shot of her own to give the first quarter to Prescott 12-8. The second quarter had a lot of missed...
PRESCOTT—Prescott boys basketball played Garfield-Palouse on Friday December 13th for their first conference game of the year. #23 Miguel Ayala would open the scoring for Prescott with a bucket in the lane. Prescott took an early 6-3 lead in the first quarter, before losing the lead by giving up open three pointers to Garfield-Palouse. Those open shots allowed GP to go on a run and end the 1st quarter up 14-11. Late in the second quarter, #12 Jonathan Cardenas tied the game at 25-25 with 1:21 left with an NBA distance three pointer. Both teams...
YAKIMA-Prescott boys basketball travelled to Yakima to play Riverside Chrisitian on Saturday, December 14th in a non-conference game. This was a game of scoring streaks for both teams. #12 Jonathan Cardenas opened the game with a three pointer. #11 Antonio Hernandez split the defense and scored up the middle. #1 Omar Velazco drove the lane and scored on a layup to make it 7-3. Moments later in what looked like an instant replay, Omar added another to make it 9-3. Riverside then went on a 9-0...
Before getting to the matchup with Arizona let’s take a look at the playoff picture. With the Rams loss this past week, the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers are both in the playoffs. However, the seeding is very much up in the air. I’ll stick with just the possibilities between the 49ers and the Seahawks for the division title. Both teams have 11-3 records with two games left to play. They play each other in Seattle the last game of the regular season. Should the Seahawks win their remaining two games they will win the div...
Dayton-Waitsburg's fall athletic teams banquet theme seemed to be the future is bright at its Monday night at the Dayton Elementary multipurpose room. The only thing that could have gotten the message across better would have been to be playing Timbuk 3's song "The Future is so bright, I gotta wear shades," in the background during the ceremony. "The future is bright," Head Football Coach Troy Larsen explained. "These kids don't play just one spot and they each got better week by week." Larsen s...
Winter sports officially started this past week as the Dayton-Waitsburg girls opened up their basketball season with three games. They fell to St. John-Endicott/LaCrosse 59-28, to College Place 64-35, and 50-30 to Mac-Hi in their first home games of the season at the Dayton gymnasium. While things did not start off optimistically with three losses, the team came away with valuable lessons that will become instilled in them as the season progresses. “They now understand that they have to work hard for four quarters and to play 32 minutes,” sai...
