Colton girls near lock for league

Gazette Editor

Colton’s defending 1B champs stacked two more heavy wins last weekend to remain two notches ahead of the SE pack as the second league round winds down.

The Wildcats hammered third-place Tekoa/Oakesdale on their home court in the Saturday round and then traveled to the Tri-Cities for a big win over the Patriots.

Colton girls Friday will roll to St. John to play the second-place Eagles who are two games back of the league leaders. The Eagles Friday posted a power win over Touchet to offset an earlier upset by the Indians on their home court.

Rosalia girls also booked two wins over the weekend. The Spartans Saturday pushed their league mark to 7-5 with a 50-24 home win over Pomeroy. McKenzie Reddish hit a league high 30 points against the Pirates with four three-pointers.
