Last night's results had the Greater St. Helen's 2A division defeating their 3A foes but losing to a 4A team and a team out of Portland. Last year the GHSL 2A was the most competitive division in Southwest Washington, a three way tie for first and one team just a game back.
Hockinson from the GHSL 2A, (and our pre-season selection to win league) look strong (literally) handling GHSL 3A Union 58 - 30. Lead by power forward (literally) Daron Dean with 20 points and Lejla Mlivic with 19, Hockinson grab the lead early and waltz to victory. Michelle Haagen held all league returner Megan Dire to 0 for 2 shooting, and two free throws, "Hawking" her all night with great defense. Dire ended with just 2 points. Janae Davis did what she could for the Titan's putting in 14 points, but this game was never in question.
Ridgefield from the GHSL 2A, jump out strong on GHSL 3a Columbia River and except for a 3rd quarter let up, never look back winning 55 - 38. Lead by 3 players in double figures, Anna Pengra 17, Lauren Landerholm 16, & Shelby Williams 10 Ridgefield eased into a opening night victory. River stumbled out the gate only scoring 11 points in the first half, which makes for a rough start for their new coach.
Woodland GHSL 2A hosted Portland Christian from (obviously) Portland Oregon, and were just a little over matched. The size and debt of the Portland team eventually paid dividends and hurt Woodland losing 62 - 46. The Beavers did show promise with balance scoring Emily Smith 11, McKenzie Heberer & Kaitlyn Moses 10 each and Jessica Hughes 8. But two of the leading scores fouled out Smith & Heberer in the forth quarter and Woodland couldn't with stand losing both of them.
Battle Ground the only GHSL 4A team in action took down GHSL 2A Mark Morris 56 - 30. A balance scoring attack for the Tiger's with two players in double figures, Kiley Thomas with 12 and Gabi Dixson with 10 simply overwhelmed Mark Morris in the second half out scoring them 30 - 10.
LaCenter from the Trico League had two players scratch over 20 points Marissa Moore 23 and Lauren Baker 21 and another Hanna Trigg with 19 points, defeated Rochester 73 - 30
