Tonight (2/8): high school seeding on the line, Clippers host Green River

Seeding on the line in a couple of girl’s games tonight. Yelm and Timberline play with second place on the line in the 3A Narrows. The Blazers are 7-2 in conference and in second behind Wilson while the Tornados are 6-3 in conference and in third. Timberline won the first meeting on January 30th, 59-49 in Yelm.

Across town in Tumwater, Black Hills takes on W.F. West with the fourth seed in the EvCo on the line for the Wolves. Conversely, on the line for the Bearcats is the #1 seed.  The two teams met on December 15th and W.F. West won easily, 62-48.

Here is the full girl’s schedule in Olympia tonight….

Foss at Capital – 7:00 PM
Shelton at Olympia – 7:00 PM
Yelm at Timberline – 7:00 PM
W.F. West at Black Hills – 7:00 PM

Only one game in town on the boy’s side. Tumwater hosts Centralia at 7:30 PM. Tumwater can get the fourth seed out of the EvCo with a win and a Black Hills loss in Chehalis. The T-Birds beat the Tigers by 25 on December 16th.

There are a couple of important out-of-town games to keep an eye on for the boy’s: Northwest Christian takes on Napavine at 6:30 PM in Montesano in the first round of the 2B District IV tournament, Capital plays Foss in Tacoma in a winner makes the playoffs, loser goes home game, and Olympia goes to winless Shelton with first place in the 4A Narrows on the line.

In college basketball action, the SPSCC men and women host Green River with the women’s game tipping at 6:00 PM and the men at 8:00 PM.  The Lady Clippers are still looking for their first win in the NWAACC West and could easily get one against the 4-14 Gators who only won their first meeting by four, 54-50 in Auburn in early January.  The men, meanwhile, could jump up to fifth place in the NWAACC West with a win. They also lost a close game to the Gators earlier this season, 85-82.
