GSHL 4A
Only one game in the 4A tonight. The rivalry game, Evergreen vs. Mountain View "1". And lead by a 19 point performance from Caitlynn Patterson the Thunder take game "1", 48 - 41. Evergreen did not go quietly into the dark though. After a lack luster first half, 16-7, both teams woke up in the 2nd half, and made it interesting. The Plainsman scoring there biggest output in any quarter of the year, in the 4th quarter scroing 20 points, they just couldn't get the defensive stops they needed to close the gap. Mt. View did just enough to survive. Amber Berry's 14 points and Audrey Fraizer's 10 lead Evergreen.

GSHL 3A
Camas vs. Union is turning into a fairly big rivalry itself, and what a game. Tied at 26 at the half, both teams came out in the 3rd quarter red hot. First Union with a 9-0 run, then Camas with a 8-0 run. Both teams scored 22 points in the 3rd quarter to really heat up this contest. Things stayed just as hot in the 4th as Union held on to win 69 - 66. Megan Dire had 19 points, including 10 free throws in the 4th quarter, Brittany Blumenthal added 15, Kynnedy Mosley had 14, and Janae Davis got up off her sick bed to add 12 for the Titan's. Melissa Williams hit a career high with 23 points in defeat for the Papermaker's.

Camas did a fund raiser for the fight against breast cancer. The girl's wore pink uniforms last night and raised over $4,000.00. Congratulations Papermaker's you are the real winners.

Hudon's Bay and Fort Vancouver, a pretty good little rivalry in itself, played into overtime with a 3 point desperation shot by Katie Endresen ending regulation in a tie. But in OT it was all Bay, lead by Kelsey Frasier's 8 points in OT, 18 on the night the Eagle's win 56 - 49. Ramona Vercher scored 10 for Bay, and Erika Virgen-Vazques had 19 points to lead the Trapper's.

The Temptations were my favorite group growing up in LA in the late 60's early 70's, and there was a song out called "Ball of Confusion", and Melvin with his deep voice would sing the hook in the song, saying "And the Band Played On". That's the hook for the Prairie Falcon's. "The Band Plays On". I'm affectionately calling it the "Victory Tour", either way in the 3A the Falcon's are rolling and they didn't miss a beat last night defeating Columbia River 62 - 22. Angela Gelhar and Christine Sonners had 12 points each, and Lindsey Levenan scored 10 to lead Prairie.

GHSL 2A
Washougal continues to knock on the door of victory but not be able to walk through it. Mark Morris held on to a 39 - 37 victory in Long View, winning on a last minute 3 pointer. Kelee Lambert had 10 points to lead the Monarchs, and Alicia McElroy went for 18 for the Panther's in defeat.

Farrine Scott had 22 points, Nichole Kates added 12 for the red hot Ridgefield Spudder's to defeat the Woodland Beaver's last night 58 - 49. The Beaver's Emily Smith had 16 points, Jessica Hughes and McKenzie Heberer had 10 apiece with Heberer adding 9 blocks and Hughes adding 7 assist.
