Today (11/5): Saints Host Crosstown Rivalry Doubleheader; District Soccer Continues

Women’s basketball
Evergreen @ Saint Martin’s – Marcus Pavilion – 5:15 PM

Men’s basketball
Evergreen @ Saint Martin’s – Marcus Pavilion – 7:30 PM

The one time Capital Cup takes place tonight when Evergreen and Saint Martin’s renew their rivalry with a doubleheader beginning at 5:15 PM at Marcus Pavilion.

The women tip-off first in the third exhibition game for the Saints and the season opener for the Geoducks. Saint Martin’s won last year’s contest 47-37 and have never lost to Evergreen in sixteen seasons.

The Saints are picked to finish eighth in the ten team NCAA Division II GNAC while the Geoducks are picked to finish ninth out of ten teams in the NAIA Cascade Conference. The Saints are a strong defensive team that often struggles to score and are led by senior Chelsea Haskey, who scored 22 points and hauled in seven boards last night against UPS. Evergreen has to replace their leading scorer, Danielle Swain, and will rely on senior guards Sammi Clark and Jessica Denmon to get things done this season.

The men will follow the women at 7:30 in a game that could finally even up the all-time series between the Saints and Geoducks. Evergreen is currently 9-8 against Saint Martin’s but have lost three straight games including a 66-50 decision last season at the CRC Gymnasium at Evergreen.

Both teams were picked to finish last in their conferences this season but both teams could easily surprise some teams this season. The Geoducks have senior leadership in big man Marc Taylor, shooters Kyle Calhoun and KJ Hong and a nice sophomore guard in Frankie Johnson.

Saint Martin’s, meanwhile, is truly an unknown with big changes coming in the offseason. Keith Cooper wasn’t retained at the end of the season and Michael Ostlund took over the reins. The Saints have to replace long time point guard Brady Bomber and all-conference guard Roger O’Neill. But the Saints have solid seniors in Evan Coulter, Rei Jensen and interesting transfers in Ryan Rogers and Riley Carel. They will play a much more uptempo game than they have in years past and should be fun to watch, win or lose.

Northwest Christian vs. Ocosta/Wahkiakum – Northwest Christian HS – 7:00 PM

The 2B District IV playoffs begin tonight with an opening round game between Ocosta and Wahkiakum at 5:30 at Northwest Christian High School followed by the Navigators first game between the winner of that game beginning somewhere around 7:00. Northwest Christian went 12-0 in the 2B Pacific League and can make a state appearance by winning their first two matches in districts. With a win, Northwest Christian would move into the semifinals on Thursday at 5:30 at Raymond High School and would take on either Adna, Willapa Valley or Mossyrock. With a loss, they would travel to Willapa Valley High School and face either Napavine or North Beach at 6:30.

Gabe Gutierrez hooked up with Jonathan Dowell on a 19 yard touchdown pass in the second quarter and Markell Barnes scored twice in the second half.

The Blazers have now won five straight games after a 1-3 start and will face the #6 team out of the Metro League in the playoffs next week.

The Highclimbers fell to 1-8 and will play a week 10 game at Stadium on Friday night.

—————

Tenino won their first league title since 1986 with a 37-27 win over rival Rochester. Zack Chamberlain rushed for 152 yards and three touchdowns in an instant back and forth classic. The Beavers took the title thanks to their win and Montesano’s 42-14 win over Elma, who could have won the title with a win. Instead Tenino took the #1 seed, Montesano #2, Rochester #3 and Elma #4.

—————

For the second straight year we were robbed of a three team mini-playoff in the 2A EvCo thanks to Capital’s 38-14 win over River Ridge. The Cougars clinched the #3 seed behind #1 Tumwater and #2 WF West.

—————

Olympia got the easy win over Yelm but missed out on the playoffs with Bellarmine’s dismantling of Gig Harbor and Central Kitsap’s 28-14 win over South Kitsap.

Centralia 3, River Ridge 0 (25-14, 29-27, 25-16)

Capital went into Tumwater and because of their 3-1 victory over the T-Birds took home the #1 seed to districts out of the 2A EvCo. Both the Cougars and T-Birds finished at 11-1 and 1-1 against each other but Capital won five sets and Tumwater won four sets in their two games and will next face WF West in the District IV playoffs at Black Hills beginning on Thursday. Tumwater draws the #3 seed out of the GSHL.

Aberdeen 3, River Ridge 0

Olympia wrapped up the regular season with a 1-0 win over Bellarmine thanks to a goal in the 76th minute by Jenna Killman. The Bears went 7-3-2 in the 4A Narrows League good enough for second place behind Gig Harbor, who are 7-0-4 with one game left to play.

North Thurston 41, Mount Tahoma 8

North Thurston scored 34 points in the first quarter and tacked on a touchdown in the third quarter to knock off Mount Tahoma 41-8 at South Sound Stadium.

Saint Martin’s vs. Alaska-Anchorage – Capital HS – 7:00 PM

Yes, Saint Martin’s volleyball plays at Capital High School tonight because Marcus Pavilion is being set up for the big fundraiser gala there on Saturday. Good scheduling by everybody involved. With a pair of wins this weekend the Saints could set the program’s all-time win record.


High school volleyball

Capital @ Tumwater – Tumwater HS – 7:00 PM

Tumwater and Capital are separated by just one win and one place in the state rankings (#2 and #3 respectively). The T-Birds are 11-0 in the 2A EvCo and Capital sits at 10-1 with just tonight’s showdown remaining in the regular season. The T-Birds won a classic in their first meeting this season on October 8th. Should be a good one with a big crowd of sugar upped high school students dressed in costume rooting on both schools.

High school football

North Thurston vs. Mount Tahoma – South Sound Stadium – 7:00 PM

It’s the 4-4 Rams, eliminated from the postseason last week by Timberline, against the 0-8 T-Birds. Should be an easy win for the Rams considering that Mount Tahoma has scored just 12 points all season and are coming off a 42-0 loss to previously winless Shelton.

High School Football Power Rankings: T-Birds Clinch EvCo Title and #1 Ranking

The T-Birds retain their top power ranking.

All T-Birds, all season

Four teams have locked up playoff spots but Tumwater is the only team to clinch a league title, the other three have their chance on Friday. Four other teams have a chance at the playoffs and four others have been eliminated. Here is how it breaks down…

——————————————–

Clinched playoff spots

1. Tumwater T-Birds (8-0, 4-0 2A EvCo)
Last week: #1 (No change)
Previous game: Tumwater 59, River Ridge 0
Next game: @ Black Hills (4-4) – Tumwater Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Another absolutely dominating performance for Tumwater and all that they have left between them and a perfect regular season is Black Hills in the Pioneer Cup on Friday. They have clinched the 2A EvCo title no matter what happens thanks to their win over WF West two weeks ago.


2.
Timberline Blazers (5-3, 4-1 3A Narrows)
Last week: #2 (No change)
Previous game: Timberline 34, North Thurston 7
Next game: @ Shelton (1-7) – Highclimbers Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: The Blazers clinched a playoff spot with their win over rival North Thurston and will likely wrap up the 3A Narrows League title with a win at Shelton this week. The Blazers have won four straight games after their early season swoon that saw them get spanked by Tumwater, make a ton of mistakes in a loss to Olympia and drop a hard fought game to Wilson.


3.
Rochester Warriors (6-2, 4-1 1A Evergreen)
Last week: #4 (+1)
Previous game: Rochester 49, Stevenson 27
Next game: @ Tenino (4-4) – Tenino Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Rochester easily beat Stevenson in a non-league game and will return to the 1A Evergreen with a rivalry game with the league title on the line. The Warriors could finish as low as third in the league with a loss to Tenino so there is a lot on the line in a game that hasn’t been this important since 1996.


4.
Tenino Beavers (4-4, 4-1 1A Evergreen)
Last week: #5 (+1)
Previous game: Tenino 39, Hoquiam 32
Next game: vs. Rochester (6-2) – Tenino Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Tenino is in thanks to their wins over Montesano and Hoquiam in the past two weeks and can win the 1A Evergreen if they beat Rochester and Monte can knock off Elma. They’ll take second with a win and an Elma win and could but will fall to third with a loss. Playing in Tenino is a big advantage for the Beavers.


Still alive for a playoff spot

5. Capital Cougars (3-5, 2-2 2A EvCo)
Last week: #3 (-2)
Previous game: WF West 42, Capital 28
Next game: @ River Ridge (3-5) – South Sound Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: The situation is simple for Capital, win and you’re in. If the Cougars lose and Black Hills pulls off the upset it will be the Wolves. If they lose and Tumwater beats Black Hills, Capital, Black Hills and River Ridge will be tied for third at 2-3 and each will have 1-1 records against each other. Not sure how the tiebreaker would be solved yet, though.


6.
Olympia Bears (5-3, 3-2 4A Narrows)
Last week: #8 (+2)
Previous game: Olympia 28, Bellarmine 10
Next game: vs. Yelm (3-5) – Ingersoll Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: With their season on the line, Olympia came up HUGE with a dismantling of Bellarmine. The Bears have the most complicated playoff scenario and I can’t even begin to break it down to an easily understandable couple of lines so I will just refer you to The Olympian.


7.
Black Hills (4-4, 2-2 2A EvCo)
Last week: #7 (No change)
Previous game: Black Hills 45, Centralia 20
Next game: vs. Tumwater (8-0) – Tumwater Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: No matter what happens in their game against Tumwater, they need one thing to happen: River Ridge needs to beat Capital. There is no other way for them to make the playoffs. With a loss and a River Ridge win, they would be in a three way tie for third at 2-3. If they pull the huge Pioneer Cup upset with a River Ridge win, they end up as the #3 seed outright.


8.
River Ridge (4-4, 1-3 2A EvCo)
Last week: #9 (+1)
Previous game: Tumwater 59, River Ridge 0
Next game: vs. Capital (3-5) – South Sound Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Even with just one win in conference, the Hawks still have some life. They need to beat Capital and hope Tumwater holds serve against Black Hills. The three would be tied at 2-3 with the tiebreaker yet to be determined.


Eliminated from playoff contention

9. North Thurston (4-4, 2-3 3A Narrows)
Last week: #6 (-3)
Previous game: Timberline 34, North Thurston 7
Next game: vs. Mount Tahoma (0-8) – South Sound Stadium – Thursday, 7:00 PM

Notes: With just three playoff spots this year in the 3A Narrows, the Rams are out, which is surprising considering that they looked like a smash mouth team that was an antidote to the speed of the rest of the 3A Narrows. But speed won out and the Rams are only ahead of hapless Shelton and Mount Tahoma.


10.
Yelm Tornadoes (3-5, 1-4 4A Narrows)
Last week: #10 (No change)
Previous game: Gig Harbor 56, Yelm 14
Next game: @ Olympia (5-3) – Ingersoll Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Yelm’s record is actually a bit deceptive: the three teams that they have beaten are just 2-22 combined (Highline 0-8, Stadium 1-7, Shelton 1-7).


11.
Shelton Highclimbers (1-7, 1-4 3A Narrows)
Last week: #12 (+1)
Previous game: Shelton 42, Mount Tahoma 0
Next game: vs. Timberline (5-3) – Highclimber Stadium – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Hey! The Highclimbers got the big win nearly doubling their season total for points with their 42-0 dismantling of Mount Tahoma. They can play spoiler against Timberline on Friday but that’s unlikely. They might get a second win when they take on Stadium in week 10.


12.
Rainier Mountaineers (1-7, 0-6 1A Evergreen)
Last week: #11 (-1)
Previous game: Montesano 35, Rainier 6
Next game: vs. Seton Catholic (3-4) – Doc Harris Stadium, Camas – Friday, 7:00 PM

Notes: Seven straight losses for the Mountaineers means that they need a win over Seton Catholic on Friday to top their win total from 2012.

Jake Henry rushed for 120 yards and four touchdowns and Brian Nault added a pair of rushing touchdowns in the third quarter to lead the Shelton Highclimbers to their first win of the season, a 42-0 romp over Mount Tahoma at Highclimbers Stadium in Shelton.

Henry did all of his damage on 12 rushes in the first half and carried just one more time the rest of the way. Nault went for 61 yards on seven carries and Gordon Henry amassed 57 yards as the Highclimbers racked up over 285 yards of rushing on the night.

The T-Birds have scored just 12 points all season and lost their top running back midway through the second quarter when Gregg Williams came up lame and was caught from behind on a 67 yard scamper. The T-Birds never seriously threatened again thanks to Nault’s eight tackles for loss.

Before tonight, the Highclimbers had scored just 44 points total. After nearly doubling their points for the season, they are now 1-7 overall and 1-4 in the 3A Narrows League. Meanwhile, Mount Tahoma dropped to 0-8.

Sunshine, flowers and football picks

Sunshine, flowers and football picks

Well, Addie when just 2-7 last week bringing her season record to 31-26 this season. Perhaps the system is breaking down a bit. Still, not a bad record overall.

However, her 2 1/2 year old sister, Rory, went 8-1 last week, her only blemish coming because she picked the T-Birds of Mount Tahoma to beat Timberline after picking the T-Birds of Tumwater to beat Centralia. Sold work, Rory, solid work.
