Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

DW Boys Basketball Team starts season 2-1

DAYTON-With the first week of play complete, the DW boys basketball team started with a 2-1 record on the season with wins on the road over Walla Walla Valley Academy 42-27 and Riverview 54-44. The only loss of the season so far came at home in Dayton against Mabton 33-29.

The boys took an early lead in the Mabton game thanks to Mason Finney, who hit a three-pointer to open the scoring. They would lead in this one until the fourth quarter, still stuck at twenty-two points until five minutes to go into the fourth quarter. Five for nineteen shooting in the second half and making just two of eleven free throws in the game proved too much to overcome in this one. Mabton scored twelve of their points on free throws as DW was in foul trouble most of the game. Two of DW's starters ended the game with four fouls, and another starter fouled out with five. Up next for DW are games against Columbia in Burbank on Thursday the 27th and at home Friday the 28th against WWVA.
