Today (5/3): Reign, rain, rain
The Olympia Reign hope to get back on track when they host the Portland Chinooks tonight at the Skookum Creek Events Center.
On Saturday night, the Reign picked up their first win of the season with a 138-127 win over the Chinooks in Portland but stumbled Tuesday against the Vancouver Volcanoes losing 114-99. In Saturday’s win, Nicholas Moore and Marcus Whitaker both scored over 30 points and Giovanne Woods added 27. The Chinooks’ Jared Cunningham – from Cleveland State, not the NBA bound, early entry from Oregon State – scored 32 points and brought down 14 boards.
Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 PM
In boys soccer action, Timberline travels to Ingersoll Stadium to take on 3A Narrows League leader Capital at 7:00 PM. Capital is 6-0-2 on the season and Timberline is 3-3-2, good enough for third in league. The two teams played to a 1:1 tie on April 11th.
Weather has already cancelled the 3A Narrows League title game today between Timberline and Yelm. They will go to Districts as the #1 and #2 seeds respectively.
Weather has also moved the Tumwater/North Thurston baseball game to the RAC at 6:00 PM, if it gets played at all. River Ridge is also scheduled to play Centralia today, but it is highly doubtful they will get that game in.
UPDATE: River Ridge and Centralia have been moved to the RAC with first pitch scheduled for 3:00 PM.

Today (5/1): 2A EvCo soccer wraps up regular season; Narrows League baseball playoffs underway
I’m getting ready to head to Kansas City for the rest of the week so I’ll have to keep this short. While there, though, Oly Sports will continue in normal fashion since my broken ankle will keep me a lot less busy than I originally planned.
On the schedule tonight, the last regular season soccer games in the 2A EvCo including River Ridge playing for a playoff spot. And the Narrows League baseball playoffs get underway in Tacoma…

Northwest Nazarene 5, Saint Martin’s 3 – More from NNUSports.com
In game one, Northwest Nazarene’s first four hitters went 11-for-17 with seven RBI and eight runs scored as the Crusaders opened up an 11-0 lead on the Saint Martin’s and cruised to the 11-4 victory. Chandler Tracy led the way for the Saints going 3-for-4.
In game two, the Saints had the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh inning (the last inning of the game in game two of a doubleheader) but Crusaders’ reliever Sean McDonald struck out Tracy looking to get the save. The Saints opened the scoring with a run in the second inning but River Ridge alum Jon Matos erased the lead with a three run homer in the third. The Saints answered back with two runs in the fourth but the Crusaders scored two of their own in the fourth and held on for the 5-3 win.
The sweep flip flops the Saints and Crusaders in the GNAC standings. Coming into the game, Saint Martin’s was in second but the losses drop them to 10-14 and tied for third. Meanwhile, Northwest Nazarene jumps to second place at 12-14.

Saint Martin’s 5, Montana State Billings 3 – More from SMUSaints.com
Saint Martin’s 11, Montana State Billings 8 – 9 innings
Saint Martin’s came up huge with their sweep of GNAC leader Montana State Billings in Billings on Thursday afternoon. The Saints had to win to keep their GNAC title hopes alive and after winning game one 5-3, the Saints found themselves down 7-4 in the fourth inning of game two. Morgan Klemm hit a three run homerun to tie the game and then took an 8-7 lead in the top of the seventh but couldn’t hold the lead in the bottom of the seventh and the Yellowjackets tied the game at 8-8. The Saints broke through with three runs in the top of the seventh and held on for the win.
The sweep brings the Saints within two games of the Yellowjackets with just two conference games left to play for both teams. To get the GNAC’s NCAA bid, the Saints have to sweep Northwest Nazarene and hope that Simon Fraser can sweep in Billings on Saturday.
