Tuesday scoreboard: Ambulance rides 1, My ankle 0
I dislocated and fractured my ankle playing soccer tonight and now that I’m home from the hospital, I cannot stay awake to blog. Way too tired. I’ll be back tomorrow maybe with some awesome and disgusting pictures of my foot. Don’t worry, I’ll link to them, not put them directly onto the blog.

Tonight (3/12): Lacey Legends Cup 2012
North Thurston and Timberline renew their Lacey Legends Cup rivalry tonight when they open the 2012 boy’s soccer regular season at South Sound Stadium at 7:00 PM. The Rams won last year’s matchup 4-3 in a shootout.
Both schools will be honoring one alumni each. North Thurston will honor 1991 graduate, Jason Dunn. Dunn was a four year all-state player in high school and member of the Rams’ 1991 state championship team. Dunn went on to play at Seattle Pacific University where he was a two time All-American and won an NCAA Division II National Championship. He played professionally for the Seattle Sounders, Witchita Wings, Seattle SeaDogs and Harrisburg Heat and made three appearances with the U.S. National Team.
Timberline is honoring 1999 graduate Willy Leiste. Leiste was named all-league three times while a Blazer and went on to play college ball at Barry University in Miami, Florida. While in at Barry, Leiste went to the NCAA tournament three times, the Final Four twice and the NCAA championship game once in 2000. Following college, Leiste returned to Washington and has been coaching youth, high school and college soccer ever since.
In high school baseball action, Northwest Christian hosts Oakville at Bucknell Park at 4:oo PM. Northwest Christian’s baseball Twitter account has confirmed that this game will go on despite the weather.
In high school fastpitch action, River Ridge is scheduled to play Northwest Christian in but the game will probably be cancelled due to this storm.
Today (3/6): Saints vs. Loggers
It looks like it’s going to be a cold but sunny day for some baseball at Saint Martin’s when the Saints take on the UPS Loggers at 2:00 PM.
Saint Martin’s comes into the game at just 3-13 but have won three of their last five games and stayed with Division I Seattle University on Saturday in a 6-3 loss to the Redhawks. The Saints are led offensively by senior center fielder Zach Leonard’s (pictured left, photo credit SMUSaints.com) .300 batting average and two home runs and senior shortstop Josh Grenier, who is batting .259 but is tied with Leonard for the team lead with 15 hits and seven runs scored.
UPS also has just three wins on the season and are 3-9-1 this season. The Loggers are led by senior third baseman Will Mentor’s .346 batting average and six RBI.
The game is scheduled to be played at SMU field on the Saint Martin’s campus but will be loved to the RAC if poor weather moves in.
