So we got an intro from Annalie Cohen, who decided to go a little crazy here. Boy, that's a lot of lemons. And she decided not to say roll Baker, not to say go Baker, not to say Mountaineers. This she quoted her head coach. Boy, a lot of lemons. I mean that is that's uh, that's next level stuff. Yeah, that's a new one. That's a new one there. Never never never seen that, never heard that when you when you said you're gonna like this, this is funny, and I hit the at the old play button. It was like, all right, all right, I see what she's doing there. I see what she's doing having a little fun there. We also need to give a thank you to Kurt Mayberry Farm.

Uh, Tyler, when you talk committed to growing the highest quality barriers, committed to the best coverage, and Walcome County is walk them preps, isn't it? You don't right, That's why it's such a great partnership. But Tyler, if somebody wants to get on board, they want to sponsor anything and everything, whatever it is they want to do. How do they get ahold of you? Yeah, you could get a hold of me through social media is really the best way. Just search for just search for Walkom Preps.

And it's it's so cool to see everybody from the community wanting to help out and keep Walking Preps going. And and we got a lot we got a long way to go, but it'll it's cool that this, I mean, even starting in August, you know, hearing from you know, Pet's real Estate was the first one that reached out and said, hey, I want to you know, and once they jumped on board, you know, you start publicizing it, then other ones do, and all year long, all three seasons, there was a lot of you know sponsors that jumped on So that's a really really cool deal. And and just hoping to keep it going. Yeah, and it's not too early to start talking about the fall. There's plenty of stuff to uh to sponsor. There also, Tyler one of those things too, Like sometimes people can just come to you and just be like, Hey, I'd like to sponsor something having to do with softball, And before you know it, I'm going, Hey, why don't we do this? Why don't we do that? Here's something we can add, you know, like if you just want to get on board but you don't necessarily know what it is you want to sponsor, just reach out. Yeah, either Tyler will have an idea or he'll talk to me. I'll come up with something. We'll figure it out. But there's plenty of stuff to sponsors. So and you know what, he it's not even too early to start talking about the winter sports. You know, if somebody wants to start thinking about basketball or something for next year, we can already start talking about that stuff. So reach out to Tyler. Get it going, Tyler. Since we're on the topic, you want to know who one of the best and I mean the best sponsors we have here at Walkompreps is who is that? Stoffer Insurance nineteen oh three, Front Street and Linden Not only Tyler, are we committed to the to the highest quality coverage.

That's st A U F F E R Insurance dot com. Boy, do we have a lot of action here, Tyler. And yeah, there's a lot of names that we're gonna list here. We've got boys and we've got girls. So the district championship track meets took place this week. Three A just Ferndale down there at Shoreline Stadium. The two AA schools were over at Lakewood High School, home to the Fighting Dan Teeters. The one a's were at Granite Falls High School, a place where some Wakoam County football teams are a little familiar playing those old what was it Tuesday games that they used to play over there. Yeah, it seemed like three years in a row it happened, and you were at all of them. I loved it. It was great. Gave me something to do. But yeah, Tyler, Wakam County one hundred and ten athletes going to the state tournament. While the state track meet. Three A is three A and two A are going to be down at Mount Tahoma High School in Tacoma, and then one A is over at Zephyl Stadium at Eisenhower High School in Yakama. You might even get a little shot to get into some some action over there at the one A state track meet. How Tyler, I've never been to state track. I've seen videos, I've seen pictures. Looks awesome, and I've heard, like I know, the one A didn't used to be there and Yakama and now it is. And I've talked to a few coaches that they love the change, they love the amenities, they love you. There's good room for everything, and I'm gonna be in the area. There's gonna be a lot of games going on, So if I could find a pocket where I can head over and check it out, I'm so pumped to do that because, like I said, I've never been and there's gonna be a lot of good athletes there. What we're gonna do here on Walkom Preps tonight, we are today. I mean you and I were recording at ten oh six pm here on Sunday night, but most people are probably listening during the day. What we're gonna do, We're gonna go through all ten teams. Tyler, I'll give you the school. Do you give me the boys and the girls? What they're going to state for? Yeah? Well, this is pretty exciting. There's a lot of names that go here, so bear with us people, Uh, Tyler, Let's start with the Bellingham BayHawks. Who do they have going to state? Yeah? On the boy's side, Quinn Hartsock is going to run in the thirty two hundred meters and Hunter descends from is from Belliama is running in the one hundred and ten hurdles. So those are the two boys going for girls. Sofia Calabretta is competing in the one hundred meter and two hundred meter dash, Sophia Koch is going to do the eight hundred and sixteen hundred meters. Jada Kannutson is throwing the javelin, Cala Young is doing the pull vault, Genevieve Blum is doing the long jump and triple jump, and Chase Flick Williams is also doing the long jump and triple jump. Wow, BayHawks really well represented. What about the Blaine Border Rights, Tyler, who do they got? Yeah? The four x one hundred team is going along with Jaden Winslow and the shot put. Jadon Winslow, one of the nicest young men ever, always comes up to me, mister Anderson, how you doing? Shake, shakes my hand. You know. He starts on the offensive line for the for the border rights. Just a junior as well, so we'll see him next year. On the girls side, Cheyenne Parker and the one hundred an hundred meters, Brieta Sandel and the one hundred meter, the four by one hundred team that both of those runners are on, and Tea Dubay and the high jump just a freshman. She's got some big time springs in those shoes and she can really jump, so that will be the complete blame team. How is it that I haven't put in a I mean, we've got Tyler's got some nuggets, man, How is it that we don't have the mister Anderson from the Matrix yet? You know, I used to hear that for like twenty years and I never knew where that was from. So many different people would say that, and I'm like, how come everybody says it that exact same way. That's so weird and then finally someone said, and I asked somebody one day. I was like, I was like, why do you say it like that? And They're like, from the matrix, And I had never seen the matrix to that point, so I never got it, But now I get it. Yeah, I mean, it's just it's amazing to me all the stuff I put in here, and I've never once to put that in there. Where are we at here? Ferndale, Let's talk the Golden Eagles, Tyler just boys going, No, girl's going to stay for Ferndale. Yah. Yeah, it's really really tough once you get up to three A and so Luke Jones will be in the four hundred meters and Marcus Perez just a sophomore in the javelin. How about the lions there at Lyndon? Who do they got? Gage ellis a really good runner the eight hundred meter. John DeAndrea is going to throw the discus, Greg Moore is going to compete in the javelin, and Jared McCrory in the poll Vall on the girls side, Keky York in the two hundred meters, Ella Freericks and the four hundred meters, Sloan Dixon in the eight hundred and the sixteen hundred meters. Faith van Brocklin and the three hundred hurdles along with Rita vander May also in the three hundred hurdles, all three relay teams four by one, four x two, four by four, and Belen Lopez in the shot put. Wow, wow, my goodness, let's move the little crosstown there. And how about the links over at lynnon Christian Yeah, Nicholas Loose in the sixteen hundred and thirty two hundred, big, big time long distance runner there, the four x one hundred team which I believe broke the school record over at Grant Falls just last weekend. So uh, they're they're poised for a good run there. Tyson Baima in the high jump and the long jump, Gavin Haskell in the pole vault, and Mick Owen, last year's state champion in the triple jump, will go back to defend his ground his crown. On the girls side, Morgan Delgado and the one hundred meter and two hundred meter Eda de Young in the four hundred meter Elina Velt Camp and get this, the one hundred hurdles, the long jump and the triple jump. The four by one, all three relay teams again, four by one, four by two, four by four, Tabby d Young in both the shot and the discus, Jess Winstra in the shot and Ellie van lou also in the discus. Got a lot of throwing action going there, Morgan Boss and the javelin, Josie Hendricks and the pole vault, and Sadie Muyacht in the long jump. So it's almost like they have someone in every single event. That's pretty incredible for Lenny Christian. I don't know much about track, but to me that sounds like maybe they got a shot at a team championship. Yeah. I think they finished second in the that regional there last and and so there's just a lot of the girls do yeah, the girls, the girls did. I mean, it's a there's just it's really well balanced. And you know it's at state. You get you get a few people getting some high numbers and all of a sudden you can just jump up that that leader board. You know, it's it's pretty cool. Uh. Now let's go a little south. Let's talk about the Trojans over there Meridian. Well, the boys are loaded and they won their their uh their their district there, so they have a legit shot of winning a state championship. On the boys side, I mean jas klink Camer's been doing it all year. One hundred meters, two hundred meter, four hundred meter. Andy's part of the four by one that's all going to be going on, so he'll be in four or four events. Ruben Taveldi in the eight hundred meter and sixteen hundred meter, Braxton Ashmore in the sixteen hundred and thirty two hundred meter. Now get this, this is crazy. Four runners and the one ten hurdles. Are you kidding me? What? Dane, Dane Bischline, Trig McConnell, Jamison heat Al, and Tate Hansen are all qualified for state in the one ten high hurdles. Unwel hold on a second, who's coaching the hurdles over there? I know, I know, it's crazy. I you know, I'm I don't know. That's unbelievable. It is, It is incredible. Tate Hansen is also in the three hundred hurdles, so he's in both hurdles events. Rhet dirsh and the shot and the disc, Brandon Montgomery in the poll vault, and Willem Nichols in the pole vall, so you also have two pole vaulters. And then on the girls side, Logan Ignatio in the sixteen hundred and thirty two hundred. She's been a great long distance runner all year, a lot of first place finishes. Amelia Coning an unbelievable athlete. I saw her in volleyball and basketball. Now she's competing just a freshman, competing in three different events at state for the three hundred hurdles, long jump, and triple jump. And her teammate Morgan Adams also competing in the triple jump. My goodness, that Agnozia girl. She's gonna run more this weekend than I have in the last six years. It's just a lot. How about Mount Baker Tyler, what are the oh wait high School? What do they got going on over there? Yeah? On the boys side, land In Hanstead, first first year track guy, coming over from baseball. Uh he qualified in the three hundred hurdles with with a personal record in that time. Alex Mololi no shock there and the shot and the javelin. Jeremiah Sheridan just a sophomore. He played guard on the on the line that you would really like watching him play as a throwing discus and Cole Luke's in the high jump. We also have a couple athletes in the ambulatory division, Christopher Sierra and the one hundred meter and shot put and javelin, and Gibson Lewis in the shotput. So those are a couple athletes always so much fun to watch in the ambulatory they get so much recognition and the crowd just goes nuts when they race or throw. It's really cool. And then on the girls side, Jane Lentz in the four hundred meters and I believe she's also part of the four by four hundred team that's going. And Natalie Horseman of the jab is throwing javelin. We're a young man. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Natalie Horseman's doing pole vault, not not javelin. My bet. We have a young man in the ambulatory he's the I can't remember if it was discus or shot last year I won the state championship. And then he actually plays defensive line and left tackle for US. That's awesome. Yeah, yeah, every time every time he plays a game, every time he plays football, the coaches from the other team are just like Bro like this guy is and he's ridiculously strong, like ridiculously strong. Yeah, it's so much fun to watch. How about Nooksack Valley, Tyler, what do they got? Yeah, Jack Cowman in the one ten hurdles keyan coppinger and the shot and disc. I think he had personal records in both just this last weekend, so he's really heating up at the right time. Joey Brown and the javelin. And then two more javelin throwers, Brian Laierley and Cade Mitchell. Cad the son of Tyler Mitchell, who back in the day was a state champion javelin thrower, and I think he threw over two hundred feet in the javelin. That was the old javelin back then, but still an unbelievable row. And then and he's the he's the javelin coach now. And then on the girls side, Kate Hintaffer who also throws the javelin. So and it's incredible because she just broke the school record in the in the hole vault and still couldn't qualify in the pull vault. So that just tells you the kind of you know abilities up here. But she did qualify for the javelin. How about Sea Home the Mariners. Yeah, a ton of athletes here on the boys side, Porter Leak and the two hundred meters, Nick Gargano in the thirty two hundred meters along with Jackson Rodgers also in the long distance thirty two hundred meters, Jack Brady in the one ten hurdles, Maxton Rush and the long jump, and Adam Perry in the triple jump on the girdles. On the girls side, this is again in one of those ones where it's a lot of a lot of different events. Here Jaded Derrek in the two hundred meter and four hundred meter, Kylie ifs ifs Beck in the two hundred meter, Samantha nip in the eight hundred and sixteen hundred meter, Sidney Harry and the thirty two hundred along with Littl Desler also in the thirty two hundred, Bella l in the one hundred hurdles, Kiara Reeves and the three hundred hurdles, all three relay teams, and Madeline Barons in the discus. So again, I know this is gonna be up the two way, which is gonna be a little tougher, But you start talking about pretty high placing there as a as a team, you're talking, so I think they'll be pretty good. And let's finish it off the Squalicum Storm. Tyler. Who do they have going? Yeah, well, our buddy Teagan Daughters in the one hundred and two hundred meters, big time sprinter. There, Chase Bartlett in the eight hundred and sixteen hundred meters, ty Hoffman also in the eight hundred meters, Tyler Nielsen in the long distance thirty two hundred meters, the four by four hundred relay team, and my buddy Finn Smith in the pole vault, and then on the girl's side, Addison Warner in the two hundred meters. The four by one hundred team is going and I love this combination. You don't see this very often. Jo Lee Paz in the one hundred hurdles and in the shot put. She's an unbelievably unique athlete that has major hops. She's only like five five, but she an outside hitter on the volleyball team. She's a big time like defensive stock pro on the basketball team. And then she's extremely fast, she could jump, but she's strong throws the shot put. So that's a that's one of those combinations to compete at state in the hurdles and the shot put. You just you never see that, I don't I don't want to say, you don't see that very often. I don't think I've ever seen that before. Incredible. Yeah, that's like having a guard also played safety, you know what I mean, right, Or or having a guard played quarterback like Beeson did. Yeah. I'd always I always joked like if you could play center in all three sports, Like if you're a center on the football team, center on the basketball team, and then play center field on the baseball team, that'd be a pretty unique athlete, you know. That would be an athlete that I would like, I would I would really like, like they would be getting that award. What's the award that that we gave out in football this year, Tyler, Well, for the lot of them? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the Mark Newton Award. Yeah, the Mark Newton Award exactly that somebody ever hits the triple crown of the old Center there, they got a shot. That's it, Tyler. That is girls and boys the state track meet. So yeah, keep an eye on walcome Perhaps Tyler will have it all there for you. Again, thank you to Staffer Insurance for their continued support. Find them nineteen oh three Front Street and Lindon three six zero seven four six eighty eight oh three Staffer Insurance dot Com online. Tyler, let's talk boys tennis now. I don't know that we've ever even talked boys tennis. I know in the fall we kind of like we would talk randomly about like other sports that we're going into the state tournaments and stuff. But boys tennis is going to the state tournament now, so we probably never talked boys tennis. But there's not a ton to talk about. They do have their state tournament. It is going on this weekend. The two ways are down at the Nordstrom Tennis Center. I'm pretty sure it's at the University of Washington. I know it's in the Seattle area. I'm pretty sure it's that you dub. But yeah, the boys tennis, we got a singles and doubles alternate teams Tyler. Yeah. Yeah. On the single side, Harley Kaiser from Seahome and then on the doubles Caleb Imbach and Nate Lyon from Bellingham. And you know they last played in the fall, and so it's one of those really unique things where you play your regular season and district stuff in the fall and you have to wait till May for the state tournament. So you're right. We weren't doing these weekly recaps of all the sports until winter, so it's kind of our first time to talk about these athletes. And it's a really unique thing that can happen where all of a sudden you're playing tennis again, and it's really unique for a certain athlete. Yeah, there's a young man and may or may not screw his name up here, Andrew van eggdum of Ana chordis he also So first off, he's a doubles tennis player that is in the state tournament. But you told me he's also a pretty good baseball player. Yeah, and anachordus happened to win twice last this last weekend, so they're in the final four. So he's compete. He's set to compete on the same day in two different sports, same tournament. Deon Sanders style. I don't know if there's gonna be a helicopter involved or what's gonna happen. It's gonna be crazy. Well, from the sounds of it, the young man has to make a choice Yeah, he's gonna have to make a choice between baseball tennis. As of right now, we don't know what his choice is going to be. We believe, Tyler, you and I kind of believe that if he does pick baseball, that should mean that the doubles team from Bellingham is in. But frankly, we don't really know, and for all we know, he might pick he might pick tennis, So we'll see what happens there. But that is a that's the heck of an athlete, man, I mean, that's that's high school sports though, Like that's what That's what you and I love about it is stuff like that so well, not the fact that he's got to make a decision, but the fact that he's going to state and to different sports that are I mean, i'll say in a way kind of like not common, you know what I mean, Like you don't find a lot of guys. Look, there's gonna be probably quite a few guys that were on the state championship and a Cortus football team, and I believe didn't the basketball team go to the state tournament as well? Yeah there is, Yeah, there might even be some guys that are going to for all three you know what I mean, who knows, but yeah, tennis and days pretty in wrestling too. Yeah, yes, and they did they did very well. So yeah, I mean kind of interesting, like who knows, But that is a that is a cool combo there on the girls side, though, Tyler, we do got some names to talk about here because they are in the state tournament. Let's talk singles first. This is interesting. I mean, there's a lot of names here, Tyler. We've got a lot of names. Now. The interesting thing is, like for me, you know, in all these other sports, we've gone to a seating committee and it doesn't appear though they do that in tennis. I don't really know exactly how it works. But yeah, we've got some We've got some girls to talk about here. Who is it that is going as far as singles go. Yeah, Anna Smukovic from Lyndon and Malia Hanks from Bellingham, and so they're both in there. Clara Stodola from Seahome isn't alternate, but those Anna Smukovic ended up winning the district tournament and Malia Hanks, who who lost then had to come back and win through some other matches, took second place, and so they're both in the state tournament coming up on the twenty fourth here. Yeah, and they got a couple of and so this is where Tyler, it actually makes me think that it's like preceded in a way, right, m m. Yeah. Not only are those two on opposite sides of the bracket, but they're taking on a girl from Squim and a girl from North Kitsapp who happened to be kind of like in the same conference, right, So it almost seems like it lines up that way. But yeah, it could be like our one against their two. They're two against our vice person. Yeah, yeah, which is kind of the way it sets up in in wrestling, right, like you have your you have your are they called districts? I'm pretty sure the regionals? Regional regionals, right, And so then it's like our one goes So you have four quadrants of a state tournament and you you get a one or two r one is going to face the four from here, but then the two is going to face the three from there, and like it yeah, kind of bounces around, but but yeah, that's singles. Let's talk doubles, Tyler. Who do we got here in the doubles? Yeah, Well, it's the same two schools, Ela Morrow and Kira Carlson from Bellingham. They took second place last year, so they're they're definitely uh, they've they've been tested in this state tournament, so uh, we'll see what they can do here. They did. They did some singles throughout the year, but when they needed to team up, they did pretty well. And of course they won the district championship once again. Uh. And then Klonnie Newcomb and Rilana Newcomb from Lynda and sisters they will be competing as well. And then the alternate is another Linden team, Grace Rice and maya vander yacht couple, couple amazing athletes. They're gonna go play college volleyball coming up in the in the fall. But but teammates here on the court on the tennis court, and they are the alternate. But elamoral Kira Carlson of Bellingham and the Newcomb sisters from Linden. Yeah, so that is both of that. Both of those are going on down there at the North from Tennis Center. No times are available yet. I'm not really sure why not. Frankly, I'm gonna be completely honest, don't pay enough attention to tennis over the years to know when their times are listed or how that actually works. I mean, but there'll be Friday. All these first round games matches will be Friday. Yeah. Well, in theory they could play I believe up to three matches on Friday. Yeah, depending on if you win lose, kind of where it takes you from there. So right, so, yeah, that'll be Friday and Saturday down there at the Nords from Tennis Center. That is boys and girls tennis. Let's talk boys and girls golf, now, Tyler, we'll start with boys golf. Let's see here, we'll go right through each classification and you can tell me who it is that is going to be playing the one A boys State tournament is going to be down there at Riverside Golf Club in shah Halis. Who do we have going down in the one as Tyler, Yeah, Thomaston Hartog of Lyndon, Christian, the Blankenberg brothers from Meridian, Daniel and Matthew both they've been playing great all year. Blaine has a couple of competitors who know Navarez on the All Name team there saw him as a point guard on the basketball team. Ellis Griffin, also from Blaine, and then Nathan Larson from Meridian is an alternate as well. So so some really really good golfers getting six it's pretty pretty incredible. And and but you just never I mean, golf, you know, is so crazy. You get in with a with a group that can you know, kind of you can play up to their competition or you can play down to how how they are, how they're playing, and it's it's just one of those crazy, crazy things, you know. But and then and there's a lot of pressure. I mean, man, it was I went to the girls golf tournament the districts and there was kind of a slow down and I was asking what was going on and I heard there was a girl pukin and I was like, I was like, is she sick? And they're like, no, she's nervous. I was like, oh my goodness, Like I can't even like because you think about it, there's it's it's so quiet, you know, And I felt bad like going out and taking pictures because I don't want to add to that. Like, yeah, if there's a crowd and there's people cheering and out they're taking pictures, it's fine. But I'm out there by myself, you said, I don't want to go out there taking pictures. I'm thinking you're talking about taking pictures of the girl puke. And I'm like, no, no, no, no, I didn't. I didn't. I didn't see it. I just heard about it because there was a little slow down. Like you're saying you didn't want to put pressure on the athletes, is what you're Yeah, there I do. It's added pressure, like you know. So I'm like, well, yeah, you're not going to go take pictures of somebody puke and Tyler, no, no, no, no, You're better than that. Tyler, let's talk two a's. The two a's are over at Liberty Lake. It's actually Liberty Lake, I believe golf club over there in Liberty Lake, which is kind of between Spokane and the Idaho border along I ninety. Who do we got in two A Yeah, a couple of golfers from seahone, John Coomer and Gabe Quick and then from Lyndon Jack Stapleton and Crew Price, which was kind of a surprise based on how he'd been played. He's been kind of middle of the road, but did really really well this past weekend or past week and just and shot up the leader board and got one of those last slots, and really really cool. I mean I grew up, I played uh, you know, baseball and football against his dad, and it's it's a it's a really cool deal. So good for him for making the state for golf. And then three A is going to be down at Hawks Prairie down in Lacey. I was just down there. Beautiful Hawks Perry Beautiful by the way. I'm pretty sure they're playing the link scores if I remember two, but that is down there in Lacey. Three A, Tyler, who do we got from Ferndal? Yeah, Cup, Yeah, Ferndale, Baylor, Baylor, Larrabee, I mean, returning as the state champion from last year, going to try to defend his title before he heads off to u C l A. And Travis Brocky also from Ferndale, who had shot a really really good score as well, so it's not just a one man show. And and Ferndale finished I think fifth is as a team, and so so yeah, really really great to represent them. Coached by Chad Hidel, another guy that I've known forever, and and good luck to them over at Hawks Prairie. Tyler. I was looking up trying to look it up quickly to see where they played last year, and unfortunately the w I A A does like to put where they played. But let's see here, see if this will tell me I don't see it. Yeah, I mean I would. I would think maybe it's the same one as the last Ye. Yeah, it's it's very possible. I mean, it's it'd be something too, because like what you're saying, if Baylor Larrabie goes back to the same course, you know, it'd be interesting. Yeah, I mean, and that's a obviously that would be a huge advantage for him. I mean, you know a lot of these kids, you know, they they play in different tournaments and stuff, so they've played some of these other courses around the state. But you know, if you've already played a course that you get to play again, I mean, that's a under the same pressure, in the same circumstances, you can get kind of exactly. You can feel for I mean, you you know, you watch the Masters and you know, after like two days, like Freddy Couples is up there, like how is he up there? Oh? He's like yeah, but he but he knows that course, right, I mean not going to last through Sunday, but he always starts off, Well, there's certain golfers that just know certain courses and and they just and they know every little thing and what not to do. Usually that's the big thing, what not to do. Oh, I shouldn't I shouldn't take I shouldn't use a driver on this specific one, and it just never goes well, or I shouldn't I shouldn't you know, go two clubs up on this because I know that it's appearing shorter than it really is or whatever. So yeah, it is a big advantage. Yeah. Actually, Tyler, I'm thinks seeing here, it looks like last year was at Indian Summer Golf Club down in Olympia, so same area but different different course. And it looks like the girls were at Hawke's Prairie last year, so although it says that they played the Woodlands course. So so yeah, good luck to good luck to those guys. Let's talk girls, Tyler. Yep, the girls. One A is also going to be at Riverside down in Shahelis. Who do we got there? Well, Madeline Angles from LC who's been playing great all year, consistently shooting in the nineties. Uh. And then Jovie Jensen, who you know, she had that. She had that. She had to break that tie with Batteleine angles earlier at the year, you know, not too long ago, and then she did it again, had to break a tie to get into state and she won that. So she's used to having some pressure hun her and she does pretty well. So no people for her, no, no, So congratulations to her. H So those are the Those are the two one A participants going to State two A. They are going to be playing over at Meadowood that is also in Liberty Lake. I believe they almost even like share the same parking lot. They're like right across the street from each other. Uh. Who do we got in two A? Tyler Oh Kinsley Rector has just spen dominant all year for Lindon. There's some other really really good golfers, but they're not they're not from the from Walking County. There's some girls golfers, okarb or stuff like that. But in the two A level up here Kinsley Rectors unbelievable. She's she's on her way. Cassie Hogan from Seahome and then Kinsley's teammate Lucy Jones as well from Lyndon, who's who's had come on pretty strong recently, so she got that, she got that nod to go to state as well. Eagles Pride down in DuPont is going to host the three A state championship for girls golf. I believe that's the one that's right along the freeway, right along I five. But yeah, Tyler, anybody from Ferndale headed down. Yes, Emily O'Toole just a freshman. So that's a really really cool advantage there to go there your freshman year. It's good. It's a good launching point for the rest of your golfing career and have that kind of under your belt to play in that. Let's see how she does and then hopefully you can you know, spin into some success going forward. Since we're on the topic really quickly, Tyler of Lacy and DuPont, I think I've mentioned it before on the football podcast Mcony's Great place to eat if anybody's hit it down Macony's m E c O n I apostrophys, get yourself the Chicken Philly. It's fan fabulous. That is boys and girls golf. Let's talk boys soccer, Tyler. Boys Soccer as always brought to you by North Alliance FC. They sponsor everything having to do with soccer. You can find them online at NCALLIANCEFC dot com. Tyler, we've got brackets to talk about here. Now this is state tournament. This is opening round. Uh, and I guess technically the second round and even the quarterfinals if things worked out for teams. Let's start with the one as Tyler, only Meridian got in because as we know, the Northwest Conference one A seems to only get one team into everything. Uh, Meridian though, on what was it on Tuesday or Wednesday? It was a fourteenth so that would have been what Tuesday? Yeh, Tuesday? Yeah, yeah, so Tuesday they had to make this nice short drive all the way down to Kingsway Christian in Vancouver, by the way, that was a joke, and they come away with a two to one victory over Kingsway Christian. Yeah, I mean it was. It was. It was pretty incredible, and you know, Terren Berks and skyl Row each had a goal. And and you know, if you look at the seating and playing on the road, you know, seating committee thought this was this would be an upset. But Meridan, they've played some really good competition. They they got they've been getting hot and Daniel Larson was really strong in goal in that one, so they were able to get the win. Going round two to face Royal on the road, the third ranked team in the state. Yeah, and if I had the ability to pull up the Imperial March right now, I probably would. But yeah, Tyler on what it was it Friday, Yeah, Friday seventeenth, So on Friday they made their way Oh yeah, because it would have been Friday Saturday for the for the next two rounds. Friday they made their way over to Royal City. Now, if you're on the wiaa's website, Dan Neilson Memorial Stadium, it's actually David Nielson Memorial Field. They went over there to take on Royal. The Knights do come away with a one nothing victory. Yeah, just a heartbreaker, I mean. And to play that well against that good of a team, scoreless tie at halftime against the third ranked team in the state, that's pretty impressive. Royal scores their goal on a penalty kick, and you know, hard not to score on a penalty kick, to be honest, I've seen a handful of them, and I think like eighty percent of them, eighty five percent of them have gone in so so that's that. That's tough. Royal has gone on and one again they're in the Semis. So that's a really really good team. It looks like the committee did pretty good with one, two, three, and four all in the Semis. So but a great, great season for Meridian, really really tough one a going through a lot of those teams. They you know, they started out really strong. I think they beat Lake with seven zero to begin the season, and they they kind of fell off for a little bit and they were kind of having some trouble here and there getting the scoring going again, and then they came on and late in the season the playoffs get the state win a game. You know, a really really good season. Only one senior on the team too, so Tarren Burks, who is a you know, maybe their best just overall soccer player, but so many guys around him that will be back next year. So look for another big, big surge by the Trojans next year, and who knows, maybe more than one team will get in because there's a lot of players returning on a lot of the teams. I mean, Nooksak is super young. Mount Baker's got a bunch of eighth graders playing you know Blake Kresky and you're Yev from Blaine. They're both underclassmen. You know, you talk about the Howell brothers at Lennon Christian. They're both underclassmen. So there'll be a lot of good soccer players back in the one A classification in Walkin County and it'll be another fun season. Let's move on and talk about two A, Tyler. Uh. Now, the good thing is in the opening round of the two A state tournament, you had a nice little double header up there at the Civic Stadium on that was that Wednesday night, Yeah, fifteenth, That was Wednesday. Yeah, so Wednesday night eight, Uh, the four pm game. Let's talk about that one first. Squalum to nothing over now, Tyler, Are we allowed to say to nothing? Or do we? Are we supposed to be saying to nil? I don't know. I don't know if we're. I don't know if we're I feel like they've been really hardcore people that like pretend like they watch English soccer, like to say to nil. I don't. Yeah, I don't want to. I feel like if I say to nil, then I'm I'm fudging how much I know about soccer. Yeah, that's a good point to you know what I mean, Squalicum over r a long, Tyler, tell me about that one. Yeah, well, I mean just they you know, kind of what I was worried about in that one was it's been a long time since they had played. It's been over a week since they played, and they won that district title. But you know, they they they just took care of business. H Cody McCauley scored in that one. I'm I'm kind of blanking on who scored the other goal. But but Blue Davison goal, he did so well. He was my player of the Week last year to shut out there. Yeah, and he you know, he helped them go along into the next round. And you know you're playing at Civic Stadium and it's your home field, not your home home, but you know you play there a lot, so that that was really well done. I wasn't able to make it to that one because I was down at Cedar Woollye for district fast pitch. But I was able to make it to the second game. You said, Cody McCauley, and the other one was Christian Valero Garcia. Yes, that's right, that's right. Yeah, the other one, Tyler a real close one sea home ate, nothing over tomb Water, just absolutely taking it to the tea birds. Yeah, I showed up. I was worried that I wasn't gonna get there in time. I showed up, and when I did, it was six zero and I was there for I was like, wow, six zero okay, and I just totally flubbed that. Oh yeah, this is the one sixteen game, so I'm kind of not surprised. Yeah, I was able. I took pictures for about ten fifteen minutes and they were just kind of playing keep away because at that point six nothing. I thought, you're not going to do a whole lot. I'll just work on getting a good picture. And I got out of there. Didn't really I didn't know they're going to score two more goals, but yeah, Noah Allen with the hat trick and just a really just you know, all year, just a super strong seom team, you know. Right after that, I just I buzzed over to Fred Meyer and evidently someone knew it because I got a picture taken of me looking at some nice lemon cookies and it was on walking prep spotted by the time I got back in my car. So the newest walking prep spotted is me with a shopping cart in fred Meyer looking at lemon cookies. And I think the most fascinating thing about that is I had no clue who took it, and all of a sudden, I'm back in my I put, you know, some groceries back in my car. I'm ready to go home. It's been a long day and I'm already on I might walk. I'm like, it's already up, like I was just I was just in there five minutes ago. I almost had to go back in and search the store. Yeah, yeah, well I just thought it was hilarious. But I mean, that's a really quick turnaround. That is a really really quick turnaround. It turned out I messaged the person because sometimes I message, I say who sent you that picture? And then they tell me and I said who sent you that one? And they said it was it was me. So I don't know if they were that's how they did it so quick. Yeah, oh, you might have to go in and ask for the footage. So so I don't know if they worked there or if they were just happened to be there. But we've got to stroke stroke a good luck for them. Tyler do we know any judges. Can we get a search warrant for that? How does that work? It's incredible. I mean, it's it's It's just one of those funny things. And I joked that's like I gotta keep my eyes open. Man, who knows if I'm pumping gas or you know what, I whatever I'm doing, there's you know what, the camera, you know what? Maybe what you need to do try to remember the exact time you were there. Maybe you just stroll security footage. No, just stroll through next week, oh at the exact same time, and just see if there's maybe somebody working. I don't know. What I have to do is I should message that account and say, can you do an intro for us? So they did they have to say their name? Well, okay, but you just kind of gave it away what I don't know who it is. I know, but if they listen to the show now, they're going to go, no, can't do it, or we'll see. You know what the funny thing would be is if they'd use like one of those auto tune things, you know, and then they're like they're like, hey, this is walcome prep spotted. You're listening right all right, Tyler, I don't even know where we're at. Now, what do we got here? Quarterfinals? Yeah, yeah, all right, quarterfinals Squalicum that this was on Saturday. They head down to Franklin Pierce Stadium to take on the Cardinals and they end up losing this one four three. Oh, this was a tough one. I watched this one on NFHS and Franklin Pierce scored two goals like in the first seven minutes. It was just boom boom, and I watched it already knowing what the score was, so that was kind of tough too. But and it was just it was so fast. Squalikin came back scored a goal. It was I believe it was two to one and a half. It looked like they had a goal right before the half, but it didn't count. Hard to tell sometimes on the footage, what the you know, uh, because there's no sound or anything, and I don't know if there was, you know, some sort of interference with the goalie or something. But it was halftime right at that point. Yeah. Well, it was like off a corner kick, so everyone was right there. Yeah. And then sometimes when it gets too muched up like that and the goalie comes out and someone gets in front of him and pushes him or something like that. Then you know, so and I've seen that before. I saw that at the Bellingham game a couple of weeks ago too, so uh and it was right before the half, exact same type deal. And uh and then it was you know, it was tied three three at one point, and then a header by Frank L. Pierce took the lead with about ten minutes to go or so. And it's just really really crazy game. The weather was just horrible downpour and then it was really sunny and then it was sprinkling, and then the downpour again and sunny. It was all over the place. So you know, both teams have to play in it, and really really close game. You know. Frank the Piers ranked the second best team in the state. They you know, they looked pretty, they looked pretty dark good. One of their goals was on a bicycle kick, like a legit ala bicycle kick. It was really incredible. Yeah, and I seen I've seen one tried this year, like when while I was at a game, and you know, it was it was you know, it wasn't it didn't go in and it wasn't even saved. It just went wide and this one was like perfect with the angle of the camera and everything. I was like, Holy cow, did he just do that? Are you serious? So there's some there's some big time talent on the Cardinals. They're really really good season for the Squalk and Storm. They do have some young players to coming back. I know Cody McCall is is a sophomore, Isaac Grimes is a sophomore, Simon Agner is a senior. But there is some good I think Sebastian Cruz is a junior. So yeah, we'll see, We'll see how they do next year. It's always a really really good program for the Storm. Then see home. They got to host another one, so you get you get home games out of this if you're the higher seed. So one pm on Saturday they took on the five Trojans and the Mariners continue to hold scoreless three nothing over five to move on to the semi finals. Yeah. I was able to pop in there for a little bit even without credentials, which was fantastic. I just said, hey, I'm just I just I'm here for like ten minutes. I'm just gonna get some get some pictures and and and it was in the second half anyway, so they didn't really mind, but came down. It was already three zero when I got there. A couple of goals by Liam Schumacher and and Noah Allen had a goal and a little more tightly contested here, but and see home, I mean, they're just and I was standing there and I was thinking to myself, this is the last soccer game I'm gonna see live. This is it. And I've probably been to more soccer games than any other sport, you know that I've seen at all for you know, boys soccer, probably maybe more than boys basketball or girls basketball. You know, football doesn't have as many games. I saw a ton of volleyball. Actually, to be honest, it might be ball. It's either volleyball or soccer. Uh. And it's just because there's day play every night, you know, baseball they kind of a group them all on one day on Tuesday and then on Thursday and on Saturday or whatever. But every single night at seven o'clock, someone was playing soccer somewhere, and so that was so cool. And I was just standing there, going, this is it. This is the last one. So great to see home one, they get to keep playing. They're gonna go to the Semis and all you know, the Semis and the finals are going to be at Renton Memorial Stadium and if you if you lose, you still play again. Both losers play for the third fourth game, which is kind of cool. So so yeah, Cil Mariners. Everything's clicking right now. You know, haven't allowed a goal in regulation in a while, so really really cool for them. Yeah, and Tyler, you know, normally we would talk talking the like what's ahead or whatever. You know, normally we would do that. Why don't we just talk about it right now as far as as soccer goes here with se Yeah, since they're the only team that we have left. They will play on Friday at two point fifteen. You mentioned it down there at Renton Memorial Stadium. They will take on the East Valley of Yakama. I believe it are the Red Devils. I know they're the Devils of some sor I'm pretty sure that they are the Red Devils. On the other side of the bracket, North Kitsap they are the three seed. Franklin Pierce the two seed. Very familiar with North Kitsap. We are Inheronckham County. And then obviously you know a little familiar with Franklin Pierce having played Squalicum, having played them. If so, that's two fifteen on Friday. If Sea Home wins, they will play at three thirty on Saturday. If they lose, they will play at eleven am on Saturday. And if anybody is looking for food while you're down there, Tyler, I know some places. One of them I'm going to give you, and I trying to remember who it is. I want to say it was. I want to say it was maybe Steve Gatterman. Yeah, went to one of my spots here. It's called the rain City Market. Down there in Renting. They have a chopped cheese like you wouldn't believe. Let me tell you that chopped cheese, which Tyler is basically just a like a hamburger and it's chopped up and put into a sub sandwich. Oh yeah, so it's basically a Philly cheese steak, right yeah, right, but it's a hamburger kind of like that. Yeah, it's very good. There's also a place that's within walking distance of of Rented Memorial Stadium. It's it's called the subs Shop and it's and it actually just says on the side subs to go. Now, when you look at this place, Tyler, you're probably gonna go. Yeah, we're not going in there. But I'm telling you that's what makes it so good. I mean, their subs are unbelievable. They're pastrami really good. They gotta they have a turkey salami one that's really good. Yeah, you can't go wrong Subshop or rain City Market. Let us know, let me know, tweet at me, yell at me if it's awful. Actually, don't do that. I'm pretty sensitive. Yeah, Tyler. That that is the bracket there for the state tournament. Leading scores. Let's talk Leading scores, also brought to you by North County Alliance FC Ncalliance FC dot com. We have a number one. He's still hanging out there. Number two is kind of a kind of on his heels, but he's got a little ways to go. Yeah, Judah Strait still up there. At twenty five goals. It's gonna be hard to catch him. Noah Allen had four goals this past week and he still has two games guaranteed, so it'd be tough to catch him. But you never know. Especially against this kind of competition, really really really tough. Simon Agner it was seventeen. His season's over. Skyl Rowe moved up a little bit to get to sixteen before his season ended. Liam Schumacher moved up with fifteen and he's still playing. Arren Burks also had a goal to move up with fourteen goals. Other guys you know, Jude Decker, Kataniassani, some guys haven't played in a little while. Blake Kureski and Isaac Grimes moved up to have thirteen, tied for ninth place with Blake Kureski. So it's kind of the same names, a little bit of jockey positions. Some guys the seasons are over. Some guys the season still going. But a lot of goals there, that's for sure. Yeah, we got some guys here, Agner, Roe, Decker and Fasani. They're sitting there hoping Schumacher doesn't score another one because they want to stick where they're at or else he might even jump them. Yeah, he's really close to scored those two goals against five to move up to tied for sixth place. Now. Yeah, well that's boys soccer sponsored again by North County Alliance FC. We will talk about them one more time in this because they do sponsor another thing on this show. Let's talk fast pitched Tyler.

Now, Tyler, you wore out the I five freeway there from from your house there in Ferndale down to see Drew Woolly. Plenty of action down there, you know what I'm always thinking though? Did you Did you get any food along the way. Yeah, there was a little bit of time on the after the final game that I had in between that and then going to Civic to see Sea Home against five. So I'm just I was really hungry. The game got done, it was like twelve thirty, almost one o'clock. By that time, I hadn't eaten eaten all day. I had joke consensus with me, so we we headed out to get to grab some pizza. And it's weird driving around sie dro because like I I just don't know the area, you know, I as far as I goet is janicky, Like that's and that's right where it says entering Seeddrow will Yeah, not even really point right. And so it was kind of cool to go into town and just search for a place to eat and I was able to get some pizza. Now, I know you love burgers, and you've talked a lot about burgers, but you know, like you talking Aboutress Philly cheese steak, and there's different kinds of things you like. But pizza wise, I know you've talked about pizza. Do you have like a favorite like if you know any kind of peta? So, do you have like a favorite kind of pizza like sauce toppings? What what would your dream pizza be? I mean if I was like drawn one up on a board. Yeah, uh, I mean I'm not gonna lie. So this is the big controversy, right, like just pineapple belong on a pizza? You want to know where it belongs on a pizza, Tyler, When it's in front of my face, that's when pineapple belongs on a pizza. I guess if I was drawn one up. I mean I like pepperoni and sausage. I think that's the classic staple, right, I like the all meats, like, I mean, look, you put a bunch of meat on there. I am a fan. Yeah. One one that I really like is like pepperoni and pineapple, because you get that, you know, like a sweet and spicy combo y. You know, I'm not into the whole like, let's have a bunch of different types of sauces, you know, or you know, like yeah, you know, like give me the red sauce, you know what I mean. Like, I mean, don't get me wrong, if you give me like a pesto sauce and a pizza. Like if somebody if I walk into a house and they got pesto sauce for a pizza, I mean, I'm gonna eat it. It's just not my preferred I think if I was like making one though, it's like, hey, you got all the toppings to pick from. You can do whatever you want. Oh man, it's tough, Tyler. I mean it's tough. But you know what I really like, and this is this is kind of out there a little bit, all right, I like chicken, yeah, with pineapple and a little Tarioaki sauce drizzled on top. Yeah. That to me, it's a little wild, but it's almost like a chicken TARAOKEI in a way, you know what I mean? Right? Right? Yeah, yeah, that's uh. Now I'm also a little crazy too, like a pepperoni sausage with with pineapple and onion. That's a good one too. What are you thinking? Do you like either of those choices? Let's say, well, yeah, I mean, I mean, I it's funny because I've had like a chicken bacon ranch with like a drizzle of oh yeah, it was like it was like a drizzle of something. It was kind of like a hot like almost like a hot sauce, like a tie sauce or something like. It was something. I can't remember what it what it was, but it was so good. And that was like a white sauce. Right, that was like a you know, which is kind of kind of rare se But here's what I so. I usually go with the meat lovers, you know, yeah, meat, you can't go wrong with meat lovers. But now when you have something like that, do you have the tomato sauce on the underneath, and then you have the toppings and then the cheese or the cheese. Actually, I always prefer the toppings on top of the cheese because I don't know about you, but when I get my pepperoni, I like it to be a little bit on the burnt side, you know what I mean? Yes, I hear you. I want to see that pepperoni. Yeah, absolutely, But like if you get one that has like, like like you said, like a chicken bacon ranch, is that tomato sauce on the bottom and then like ranch sprinkled on top. No, it was actually like it was actually like the white sauce. No, no tomato sauce. The drizzle was like orange. I'm trying to remember what it was, but it was. It was really like it had some kick to it. It might've been like buffalo I think it was buffalo drizzle. Oh, like a Frank's red hot. Yeah, it was like it was so yeah, it was like it was a chicken bacon ranch with buffalo drizzle. That's what it was. I was pretty darn good. It doesn't sound bad either. I've also had one called I think it was called the Flame, and it had it was just really spicy, and I like I like spicy, yeah, and so I don't mind spicy. But my thing is always if it's too spicy and it overpowers the flavors of everything else, then I don't understand why you need all that spice. Yeah, no, I I it, Yeah, and I I don't. I don't like that either, but if it's just right, like, I'll put a ton of crushed bread pepper on my pizza too, so I enjoy really like oh yeah, pizza Hut used to always send the little packets. You're right, yeah, yeah, you know what I did one time, I put a bunch of that stuff in uh, in my my spaghetti sauce. I'm not gonna lie. Oh it was fabulous. It was really really good. Yeah. The other thing I used to do, and this is me again crazy, I used to put pineapple on my spaghetti sauce. Yeah, you were something with you in the pineapple. I guess I'm going on like the sweetness. I like the tang, you know what I mean? Yeah, Yeah, that's something I like there. Anyway, enough food talk. It's ten to fifty six at night and I'm starving. Now let's see here, what do we got to talk about, ty We got the one or excuse me, let's start two A two A fast pitch softball. The district tournament down there in sedral Woolley. There was quite a few games going on. Now refresh my memory, Tyler, M Did they play games on May tenth or was that last week? Yeah? That was the week before. Those were you know, that's what I talked about, those those playing games. Yeah, yeah, we talked about those. Sea Home beat Squalicum, Anti Chortus beat Bellingham, Squalicum Bellingham. Their seasons were over Seahome, Anta Chordus. They move into the district tournament fifteenth and the seventeenth. Those games are the ones we're talking about here, and there's a lot of them. Let's start. I mean, I don't even know where to go with this, Tyler. How about we do this. Let's let's let's talk Sea Home specifically. First, they played two games I see here, both on the fifteenth. They did end up losing both games. But let's talk about the Seahome Mariners. Yeah, game one against Burlington is in this you know, a really really strong Burlington team, and we talked about how how those those scadget schools are really really or not just scadget but you know, the southern schools were really really strong. Sidro obviously top ranked in the state, Burlington's really good, Lakewood's really good. Like these were really really good teams and only two teams were gonna make it. So Lindon had their work cut out for him. And see Home it was, you know, it was just they they were they might get overpowered a little bit, but they have some really really good players. Uh, you know, Burlington got them pretty heavily there, twenty six to three, put him in the loser's bracket against Archbishop Murphy. And and I was talking to one of the assistant coaches because I had watched Archbishop in the first round and and I've seen Seahome my hand like six or seven times this year, and and she asked, she goes, you know, what do you think, you know, can we what can we give them a game? I said absolutely? I said, you know, they're you know, they're they're they're they're beatable. The weird thing was is they pitched their number two against Lyndon and then use their number one against Sea Home. I don't know. And I saw both both pitchers I don't know if there was a huge upgrade. You know, sometimes it's kind of apples and rages, but but it and it was such a really really close game. See Home came back late, scored some late runs to to make it interesting. There was an out on the bass pass to for the final out and uh, and she was in scoring position. So that's kind of a bummer. But that final game, at least Krout went four for four the senior catcher. She think she pushed her average to over five hundred. Just an unbelievable season for her and and uh, you know, really really good strong athlete. I mean, she's she's probably about five eleven and just a really solid hitter. You know, sar as a as a backup post player on the basketball team, and really enjoyed watching her play. But they do have some young players too that were that were pretty good that they're going to rely upon for the next couple of years. It's a really great coaching staff, so hopefully See Home can just keep improving from there. You know, they win the playing game and then and two when they're out in this one, but a really close game against Archbishop. Yeah, and the reason they played Archbishop Murphy in that second game is because Lyndon, well, Linden took it out on him. In the first game. The Lions win fifteen nothing and then they end up playing a second game where they take it out on Burlington Edison a little bit twelve too. So see home, you know, even though they get eliminated, maybe a little happy about the the old you know, elbow that Linden gave Burlington Edison in that second game. Yeah, Burlington's seen a lot of green and gold on that opening day. You know, Linden take that out like, you know, beating Archbishop that was that was pretty handedly. I went into the game and never seeing Archbishop the whole year, so I didn't really know anything about them. Yeah, on the program it shows their win losses and stuff, but I really want to see a team, and uh, they're very young and and you know, the shortstop made some tremendous plays, but Linden just overpowered him. Linden is so strong in all the phases, i mean, hitting, you know, speed on the bass, pass, pitching, defense, They're so solid. So there was kind of no surprise there. But going in and beating Burlington in the second round was a really satisfying thing for the Linden fans who just lost to Burlington, you know, less than two weeks prior. So uh, that was that was a really really strong showing there. Burlington, who beat Lyndon, beat Baker in the regular season. This is a really really good Tiger team and for Linden to ten run them was really really impressive to shoot them into the into the district championship game against Sidro, who well, I mean Sidro beat the top four A team in the state earlier in the year two, so they're really really strong. Yeah. So those two games were on the fifteenth. Let's move to the seventeenth, where Burlington Edison was eventually gonna need to play three games in one day. It's kind of crazy. I mean, that's a lot of a lot of softball there. But well, the third one was actually on the eighteenth. They have it wrong on the thing, but the game would Yeah, the third game was was on Saturday morning at eleven. That's when I went and got pizza. Oh, okay, gotcha. So let's talk Lyndon Seedrow woollie. That was a six to thirty PM game in the district championship game down there in seedrol Woollie, well right in the backyard of the Cubs. But yeah, seed roll Ollie comes away with a nine to win over Lyndon. Yeah, I mean that was kind of what was expected. It was a pretty close game early seedgrow Willie's pitcher is one of the best in the state. She's gonna go pitch d one somewhere. She's just a sophomore, my goodness. And she can hit too, I mean, she's and they're just they're so good. I mean they they really really can hit the ball. I was planning on going out there. You know, there was some weird things with the one A schedule. Weather related things got moved around, so the one a's were happening at the same time as the two A state champion or the district championship game, and so I was actually able to send my buddy Travis out to the to this to this game and kind of report with for me and send me pictures while it was going on, because I was watching one A games at that exact same time. But you know, it was it was kind of close. In the beginning. Linden had some defensive miscues uncharacteristically, probably like the fourth or fifth inning let in like five runs and then that I mean, you cannot give the Cubs that kind of you know, you know, easy scoring opportunities because and they're playing at home. I mean, this is their place. They know everything about it. And uh and and Linden. Even though they lost that game, they were able to sit tight play the next morning and just kind of await, who were they were gonna play based on all the other games that have been happening in the consolation round. Yeah, and it's it's kind of crazy. So they play six thirty on Friday PM on Friday, and then they have to turn around to come back. I mean, they might as well just set up some tents in the parking lot down there, Tyler. But they did end up taking on Burlington Edison and the Lions do come away with a three to nothing victory in that one. That was an awesome game. I mean I went down there was jacked about this one again. Now it's kind of like the rubber match. You know, Burlington got him in the Raiders season, lynnon ten runed them in the second you know, in the second round or the semi finals, I guess. And and now this is it. This is winner to state losers done. I mean, those kinds of games are just the emotion that you feel when you walk through the crowd. You know, the moms that are wide eyed and kind of shaking holding their phone getting pictures. I mean, and it is it is tangible. I mean you can you can, you can see it. It's it's really really intense. I try to stay out of the crowd during that, so I was back in like left center field, behind the fence, getting some pictures, uh, trying not to distract the batters, even though it might have been wearing something bright orange, it could be the case. And uh, and that was such a really really good close game. Uh. There was at one point when Lyndon led let off an inning. Kaya Kaya told the nine hitter leads off with the bunt. She's left handed, so she puts down a bunt, and then Campbell de Young, the leadoff hitter, puts down a bunch. So now you got a runner on first and second, nobody out. They both had bunt singles. Melanie Anderson, left handed hitter, puts down a bunt and works as a sacrifice, so they run. They go to second and third, still scoreless. Game here it's about the third inning, and then Casey Thomas, who I mean we've talked about all year. The catcher she's going to she's going to scadget to play catcher, and she rips a double down the second or down the left field line, score both runners. So that kind of opened the scoring. Lindon had a few innings where so they had a like there was one inning where they had two easy you know catches that they dropped for airs and that would have been outs. And then there was a really close play that I thought wasn't out that they called safe. So they had to get six outs in that inning, you know in my eyes, and they still held them scoreless in that inning somehow. So that was an unbelievable, you know, way to fight back through adversity and get out of an inning. Then later on in the game, Campbell to Young, who is just you know, one of the premier leadoff hitters in the county. She hits one to center field and she's so fast, she's got thirty one steals on the year. She she just she just you know, she took a single and made it into a double based on her hustle, on her speed. So she ends up on second, she steals third. They throw down to third, he gets past the third basement and she scores. I mean she did. It was like watching Ricky Henderson, like he would get on base and just and he could create a run by himself and give them the pitcher's head. I mean it, he would. You know, there's not players like that anymore. So it's so fun to watch or do that generate that generate that third that that third run is huge. Once it got down to the seventh inning, I came down back around the dug out there and I got right there close to the gate, and all the parents were like, yeah, I get in there because they as soon as that third out happens, I'm running out on the field and I'm taking pictures and and I did. It caught a great celebration. Lindon's going back to the state tournament and to knock Burlington out, who is a state caliber team. Let me tell you, really really impressive the Lions to go back Coach Ed Baumber and the and the crew there, really really impressive. It's a fun team to watch. And they they're just they're they're really good up the middle. I mean they're you know that's definitely where their strength as you look at the second base, shortstop, center field, catcher, their pitcher, Trinity Andrew is so good. It's it's a lot of fun to watch them. Yeah. We will talk a little bit more about the state tournament later on. But Leah Linden and Sedro Woolley the two teams coming out of district one for the two A fast pitch softball. Let's talk one A Tyler, Yeah, and now one A. There was some crazy numbers thrown around here, some numbers that I was looking at, going, did Tyler get these scoreboards? Right? What's going on here? Uh? So all of this going on down in Cedro or No? This was at Memberfields, that's right, Yeah, I got moving. Yeah you mentioned that. So here's the thing, Tyler. Yeah. They had a play in game. Yeah, now this playing game Nooksack Valley Meridian. That was on Tuesday. M hm. That was at Meridian. Yeah, that was at Meridian High School. And and this was to me it was a pick him. I mean, these are two very even teams, and it was excited to go down and cover this one. I believe believe that our buddy Joelduis Blair sent a picture of me to you from this game and said that, you know, Tyler can barely see over the fence, yes, which is a nice short joke. But yeah, this was a really really close gat. Meridan actually scored five runs in the first inning. They looked like they were in control. Nukzac Balley just kind of kept just kind of kept scoring and pounding and doing some good things. Kenzi likel hit a home run. I believe it was her first of her career. She was pretty jacked when she hit it out center field. Elena Dykster hit a triple down the left field line, and there were some really good things that happened there. Peyton Bartell had her best offensive game. She drove in like three runs. She's the nine hitter and she's just, you know, a left handed slap hitter. She even slapped one right towards her teammate who on the on deck circle. Landy Kimball, the leadoff hitter, hit her right in the hand. She had to be removed from the game from a little bit, which I was, you know, I was so saddened for because she's a senior. This could be her last game. She just this freak, you know, ball gets hit right at her and then she has to come out and then she's able to come back in and finished the game, which was great. They end up winning the game, so it ended up not being our last game. Sad to see. Uh, you know, the Meridian players walk off the field and they're really they're a pretty good team and and that was that for them, and and and then yeah, then after that, now you got you know, four teams in this in this tournament at Bender Fields, and it got it got moved there. You know, it gets closer for everybody, but there's no you know, there's no there. There is a fence, but it's for like slow pitch softball, so it's like two hundred and fifty feet away and it's about you know, nine feet tall, and and there's no scoreboards or anything. So it was kind of it's not really built for it, but uh but it was it was a crazy It was crazy. I mean I saw every single game. Uh. You know, it started out, you know Baker, uh, you know, playing against Nook Sack and a lot of runs being scored, a lot of defensive miscus in that when it was really really windy out at Lindon. Uh, you get out there, especially out and I've played a ton of slow pitch out there. Uh, it can get really windy and really cold, so you kind of have some weird defensive stuff happening. And that was kind of that kind of went as expected with Mount Baker beating Nuk Sack and then on the but on the other field, there's some shocking things going on and Elsie pulls out a win against Blaine four to three, which you know, it was kind of like we we've been talking about this tournament for months now, you know, you and I with only one team going and how crazy it is, and so there could be just some uptight you know, just kind of tense moments where you know you don't want to make that one mistake because it could it could end it. And for Blaine to lose it right away, it kind of kind of made people go, cow, What's what's going on? And so right after that, now it's Baker and Lindon Christian playing. They both won, and uh and lind and Christian just kept that hot streak going. Uh just and you know, Cassidy van Seust is such a strong pitcher. She did so she did enough to get past and to hold Baker to seven runs is really incredible. I mean, that's a really really strong team. Baker again had some defensive miscues. They started to come back late. They actually did a comeback right to the pitcher hit right off her neck, and it was just like everyone just goes silent because you know, you just you never ever want to see that she comes off the field. Luckily, they have a really good freshman pitcher, Roxanne Lenning. She comes out and finishes the job. But on everybody's mind was, you know, Lenny Christian's gonna have to come back and play again. Is their pitcher gonna be able to pitch? I mean, that's that's the big big thing there on the other field, you know, you're hearing some some hoots and haulers, and I'm going over there and and and nook sacks ahead of Blaine. And I mean I went to that game in the regular season game that was a fifteen to nothing game by Blaine. I mean it was there was nothing pretty about that game. And they they whooped them. And then and I was at Knooksack and now it's just the Pioneers are playing so spirited here and they're just they're doing so well now they have some big time offensive firepower, especially at the top of their lineup with Landy Kimball and the Leana Dykstra and Kestan Weggter and and Shelby Mason. I mean, these are some big time offensive players and they were contributing so much so were some of the other players. Graced Hoague was I think three for three in that game, and so everybody was doing some good stuff. Peyton Bartle pitched a great game and and uh it went into extra innings and all, and so now it's super late. I mean it's you know, my goodness, it was dark. It was you know, nine thirty or something like that, and and I'm sitting there watching the game and it's an extra innings and it's just it's just it. You know, you're losing, You're done. Yeah, and uh, and some ones were like every pitch, yeah, potential, you know, it was. It was incredible. And and you're you know Emerson Baker, who is the premier pitcher in Walkin County. I mean, she was the she was last year, she was the you know, pitcher of the year or defensive player of the year or whatever you want to call it. And this year you know, over two hundred strikeouts and I mean, she's she's legit. But nook Sak was able to get some runners on they loaded the bases, Lady Kimball hit a triple and cleared the bases and they got They scored five runs on the top of the eighth, and they were able to shut down the Border Rights in the bottom of the eighth and that was it, and the Border Rights season was over. It was just shocking that one team was going to be eliminated on that first day, and it was the Border Rights. It was just you just you just never know. And you didn't see that one happening though. Yeah, I mean I texted you and I was like, you're not going to believe some of these scores. This is crazy. And but you know, these teams are so well coached. I mean Tom Harmon has been the coach at Nuoksack Ballet since nineteen eighty six. You know, it's he he knows when to play small ball, he knows when to do this, he knows how to get the best of his players. And it was I tell you, it was just a great, great game to be at. And and then you know, Tyler, what that was just Thursday, right, yeah, well yeah that that that was Thursday. And then the next morning they're gonna play and you know a lot of these times are all kind of screwed up on here. But uh, the next yeah, no, the next the next day at noon, they're they're gonna play Baker Knuksack are gonna play a loser out game, and one whoever wins that game has to win three that day. Yeah, I mean, yeah, you end up all of a sudden you're looking at it going, hey, we gotta we gotta win three games in one day because we only get that one team going through, right, and and and Linn and Christian is just thinking we just got to come in and win and that's it. And it's and so I get there about even thirty. I'm pretty excited. There's not a lot of people there because at school Friday and it's eleven thirty, so yeah, you know that, so there's no students walking around. I mean, there might have been a couple of Ferndale students that we're skipping, but it was, uh, it was you know, there was a well Ferndale, well, you know a couple of kids that we know from the football team, oh gotcha. Yeah, no, I know where you're going with that. Go ahead. So then uh so we were just, you know, just it's a nice day. It's but I'm talking to some of the you know, some of the parents from Knooksack and from Baker, and there's so much respect on both sides, and and they're both they're both packed and lunches and dinners, and they're like, you know, we were here to win three games. I mean, that's what we have to do if we want to keep playing it. I'm like, yeah, it's crazy, you know. And in the back of my mind, I'm thinking, well, the you know, the the two way District championship is tonight at six thirty. I mean, at this point it's eleven thirty. I'm thinking, hopefully I can get in three games then head out there. And of course it didn't happen. That first game took a long time. Baker wins twenty two to fifteen, a lot of scoring, you know, and that we've I've talked about this they put up you know, it was thirty one to nine a couple of years ago, last year, and you know, these two teams just can just get hit the ball, and so nook sacks eliminated. Great season. I mean, you're the five seed. You gotta win a play in game on the road. You do that, You go in and you lose to Baker, but then you then you beat Blane in an extra inning game. I mean to keep that season alive. Great great season by Tom Harmon and the rest of the Pioneers. But Baker, Baker moves on, you know. Happening through that game, Lynn and Christian's showing up, they're warming up. I looked over at coach Zilstra and I, you know, I shook his hand and he always has a big smile when he sees me, Oh, thanks for being here. It's like, is Cassidy okay? Like she took that line drive, He's like, oh yeah, she's tough, man, She is tough. She's ready to go. I was. I was impressed because that was a line shot. I mean, and it wasn't one of those where you know, come out in the field, check conor. No, she went straight to the dugout. That was she knew she was done, and but for to come out and pitch so well, and it was such a tight game, and uh, you know, it was just back and forth and every time Linne Christian would do something, Mount Baker would answer it, and it just kind of it just kind of kept going. And then, uh, you know, Baker Baker held a you know, a lead by a couple of runs going into the going into the seventh and and uh and they got to hold them, and and Linny Christian just you know, they you know, get on base, and all of a sudden, the bases are loaded, you know, so the tying runs on second. And then and they were hitting just line shots. I mean, when you talk about the the line drive Northwest, you know, sponsor like, it makes me think of some of these line drives they were. They were just crushing it. But then they hit some line drives right at the outfielders left field or center fielder, and without offense there, you know, they're kind of get a little bit more range to kind of go back and play some of these and and it worked out and the benefit of the Mountaineers at that point. But that's long balls Mount Baker's game. So they had a couple of hitters that would have been home runs, but they end up getting doubles or triples out of them, you know, balls that would have been out at a two hundred foot park, So back and forth game, Baker wins it. It's crazy. By this time, it's getting late. There's no way I'm going to make it down to Sidro. That's when I got a hold of, you know, my buddy Travis and said, hey man, I'm not gonna be able to make it down there. I need you to, you know, if you can, if you can get some info for me. At this point, I go into my car and sleep for thirty minutes and come back. I come back at the games, like in the second inning, I'm somewhat rested, still haven't eaten, and and I'm kind of loopy. But it's it. It was just another crazy game. And Elsie had a couple of big, big innings. Roxane Lenning that freshman, she had three triples in the game. I mean, she just she can just hit the gaps and line drives. These would have been home runs in a smaller park. But uh, but Mount Baker had a huge bottom of the sixth held them in the seventh. I was able to capture the final out, share it on social media. Uh it went. It was just it was a huge thing because they did not the unthinkable but they you know, they put themselves in a tough position. They dug out of it. They were the one seed. A lot of emotions after the game. Uh, you know, a lot of embrace tiers stuff like that. Uh you know, I I talked to coach Lap after the game. He's like, I'm so hungry. He's like, I had two cookies today. That's all I had. I went to bed last night at three thirty. I mean, it's just you know, everything they had to go through and then to get that final seed and and uh just really really you know, they earned it. It was it was unbelievable because they had they had to do some really tricky pitching, you know, switches where they you know, they have two really they have a lot of pitchers actually, but they have two really good ones, a senior freshman Ava Juretzky and Carral Welters. And so they were able to kind of give Ava a break at opportune times and then bring car in and if she's going good, they'll just keep going with her. And she was able to pick up a couple of wins in this tournament as the number two because it was just working and they didn't have to go back to Ava and including that final game. Ava was out in left field when the final out happened, and and uh, just good to see that and everybody, everybody participate. They only stood up eleven players and you got some courtesy runners in there. All eleven players were in on the win. And it was just a big, big win for Mount Baker and Lenni Christian. What a great program. So many freshmen on the team. They are going to be back, They're going to be scary, but and hopefully it'll get you know, it'll get fixed where there's more than one team going. And and it's uh, I mean, if let's say a second team would have gone, they would have been, you know, seeded top five, top six, and so that tells you so so congratulations to Mount Baker. Mountaineers. Still have some work to do and a great, great season by the Links, the Border Rights Pioneers, the Trojans. It was an epic tournament and uh, just happy to that I was able to see every game. Tyler. Let's just do a little scenario here. Okay, Yeah, it's Friday eleven thirty. You walk up to the field, you look at Lap and you go, hey, coach, I just want you to know you're gonna give up thirty runs today. What do you think about that? I mean, do you think, boy, that's a lot of lemons? Like honestly, that's probably what he would say if I said to him, coach, you're gonna give up thirty Oh but by the way, just so you know, you're gonna play three games and you're actually gonna score forty one yourself. Yeah, I mean he would have told me you're you know, he would probably said you're nuts. You know. You probably said, man, that sounds like a long day. Yeah, well, and it was a long day. It was. I mean, you figure, let's just say they got there at I mean, let's just say eleven. I'm sure they got there earlier. Let's just say they got there at eleven. They're there at that field basically playing like one after another almost from eleven until what seven? Oh? It was well oh yeah, because if yeah, if it started, well it says started at five thirty five. I don't think that's true though, But I mean that's a long stinking day. Man. Oh yeah, it was crazy. I mean, there was a lot of fans going. They brought coolers, they were going into there, grabbing sandwiches and yeah, and it was. It was pretty epic. I mean it was. It was. It's so fun too, because like I've been doing this, you know, especially with fast pitch now for like six or seven years, and and you kind of get these groups of parents that you get used to seeing all the time, and it's just fun to see the support. I mean they're out there for every game, and then and then knowing like, oh they're the parents and grandparents of you know, this senior or whatever. It's like this could be it like until the younger sister comes along or whatever, and it's just it's just a fun atmosphere. And I had such a unique perspective out at Bender Fields because it's kind of it was kind of like my third act there. Like I played a lot of Little League there, Yeah, and then I didn't go there. I didn't play a game there for like ten years, and then I played a ton of slow pitch softball there, and then I haven't I haven't been out there like ten or fifteen years, and then now I went out there again and now I'm covering fast pitch there. So it was just a weird, you know, just walking around and looking around and going, man, it's it's changed, but nothing's changed, you know. It was, yeah, it was, It was just really it was just really fun to be there. Oh, we've been talking about Bender Fields a lot recently, Tyler. Well, yeah, well yeah, well Lyndon boys soccer plays out there. But well so but NC Alliance, yes exactly, friend's over there. Yeah right, And the last time I looked at it, I remember they had a cricket thing listed as being there too, which yeah, they got all sorts of things out. Really excites me because I love cricket. I think it's a great sport. Yeah, Tyler, that is the long winded one a fast pitched softball District one tournament. Yeah, we will talk about what Mount Baker looks like in the state tournament here coming up, and a little bit. Let's talk about baseball, Tyler, and we will. We will be talking one A and two A here. They are brought to baseball in general. Brought to you by the scoreboards and the Stats by j e KK Sports Cards two zero one six Main Street Inferndel three six zero three zero three seventeen eighty nine and online at j e KK cards dot com. I've also seen some daily recaps and those are brought to you by Bedlington Farms. You can find them online Bedlington Farms dot com. Tyler, we will start with one A. Now, we had two teams in the one A State Tournament, Lyndon Christian and Meridian Lenny Christian the thirteen seed. They play two games, they lose to Tanano, but they got to win over Nazi's Valley three to one to get it all started over there in the Yakama Parker Field at Yakama Valley Community College. Yeah, that was, you know, kind of kind of a little bit of an upset there. They went with Jonah Turpstra, who is mister Efficiencies, Like, who's that guy? Mark? Mark Burley would have those kinds of games where he pitched a whole game of like an hour and forty minutes and he's like, how did he do that? He's not throwing that hard. Jamie na used to do that too. Yeah, I just kind of just get in, get out, get the job done, pitch the contact. And Jonah Turpstra, who got his seventh win of the year, just went out there and you know, he struck out four batters, which might have been his career high. I mean he usually just says here it is, he's always around the zone. Let's his defense, you know, do some good things and then and then he can do some good things with the bad. I think he was three for four in that game at an RBI scored a run and uh and they and they beat Natchi's Valley three to one, which was kind of Holy cow. I was sitting there eating pizza watching you know this on on the game Changer and uh, and it was fantastic. You know, you you're the thirteen seed, you win, you go on to play to Nino, who would shut out Lakeside nine Mile Falls and then and uh, going against Tonino and and that was a really close game. But then tonight know, I think scored eleven of their twelve runs in the final three innings. They just kind of piled it on. And baseball can get kind of, you know, once one thing bad happens, it can just kind of continuously go boom boom, boom boom, and you can't you can't really dig yourself out of it. And that's kind of looks like what happened. But again, Noah Ralls coach, great great season, big time players on that team, So getting the best out of your pitching. I mean I had a conversation with one of our sponsors before the season started when we were talking about the Lennon Christian baseball team, and he's like, you know, I was like, I really like the team. He goes, yeah, he goes, I just I just don't know about the pitching, and and I kind of said, yeah, there's not like that, that dude or that ace. There's guys that have pitched, but you know, but for Jonah Turpsha to just emerge as a dude as the season went on, I thought was so awesome and so fun to watch. I mean, he pitched opening that first game at Bellingham. I was there, so I was like, Okay, this is the guy they're going to rely on. I was like, well he's you know, he's pretty average, he's all right, but boy, he just blew me away and had such a great season and I was way off. So a great great season by the Lynx, Jonah Turbshaw, you know, Austin Angeles, Brody Bauman, Trason Johnson, Sam Cock. I mean, they have so many good players, Eli Mayberry. It was a really really fun season to watch, and you know, their season had come down, but they did get that win to get onto the quarterfinals. Uh. Now let's talk Meridian Tyler. Yeah, that high school had a couple of long bus trips this week, with the soccer team going down to Kingsway Christian. The baseball team they had to go all the way down to Camus High School, which is also down there in the Vancouver area. One pm game is what they started with against Kiyona Benton. They come away with a three to nothing win over Killana Benton send, setting up a game with Seaton Catholic. Uh, Meridian comes away with two wins. Yeah, just in the most Meridian way they can do it. I think they combined for like, you know, five hits something like that over the over the weekend. And and to pitch two shutouts though, is incredible. Game one, going against Kiyona Benton, they threw their freshman Nate Ayne, who has been very very good. But you know, I knew they had Jonah the available, and but Nate Paine's been their number one ever since Ji went. Jonah went down and he goes out and throws a one hit shutout, striking out nine batters. That is just I don't care you know who you are, but a freshman to do that and your first ever like state tournament game and you go out there and throw a one hitter, that's that tolls me a lot. And Meridians scored all three of their runs in the bottom of the sixth inning, so it was a It wasn't like something where he got three runs early and he thought, okay, now I can just pump it down the strike zone. He was a zero zero game for through you know, his six innings of pitching, and uh I was able to complete that game, get the one hit shutout. Unbelievable. Then you go against Seaton Catholic, who you know, beat vash On ten to zero, and and they are a team that's been averaging a ton of runs per game and I think that I think like more than half of their wins they scored double digits in And now you now you roll out Joe Nassi, who is somewhat rested, feeling pretty good. He goes out, pitches the complete game, strikes out fifteen batters. He did allow I think five hits or something like that. So I know that that that that's not a lot, but for him, it seems like a lot and and Meridians scored in the third inning on an air. Silas Bershower got a hit and then he came around and was able to score on an air. That hit was their one hit of the game. So a lot of you know, good things happened defensively for the other team. But so this could have been Ace versus Ace in this game. And then Seaton Catholic they almost scored in the fourth there was they had a guy that got a double and then the next guy got to hit into right field. The guy's coming around to score because they know runs are at a premium against against Ossi Tristan Wang, and right field grabs the ball, throws it to Ian Forbes, the catcher, perfect strike, take him out at home. And that you know that won in the game. I mean it was a one zero game, like you said, So they get to go on and and uh and keep playing. And it's unbelievable to see. You know, we know Tanaio and Meridian we just talked about it. But the other two teams that are going Cedar Park Christian and over Lake Bear Creek. Those are the other two teams that qualified from the by district from up here. So it's really really crazy to see that how good the competition is up here. But and they get to play at Civic, right, Joe Martin. I know, we'll talk about it a little bit. But pretty pretty incredible that three out of the four teams from that by district is going to come back to to play it, Joe Martin And and uh, we'll see what happens. Yeah, that is unbelievable. Really, I mean that's wild, like that is yeah, really really wild. Yeah, that's one A Tyler. Let's talk to a Linda and a couple of games against teams that very familiar in terms of kind of the names of the schools. But you know, you and I both know him really more for football. But Lynden, Uh, they travel over to Lincoln High School in Tacoma. They play the ten am game against Allensburg, come away with a three two win, setting up a game against North Kitsapp. Who yeah, I mean Linden North kids App. They're playing and sticking everything right now, Yeah, seems like it. And then they come away with an eight to four. Went over that one. So let's talk the first Gamelynden Ellensburg and then we'll talk Linden North kits Up. Yeah, Linden threw their ace lane Lane Simonson and that in that first game. I talked a laye out at the fast Pitch tournament in Sidro and I asked him about it. So are you going to pitch that first game? He said yeah, and he goes, are you gonna come down there? I said nope. And but Mikayla did go down there, which is awesome. She was there down there for for for both games and and uh, yeah, this one was. It was close, man, it was two to two. Uh went into extra innings. Simonson's out of the game by that point. He pitched seven innings. Matt Carroll comes in, pitches a scoreless eighth and then uh Lyndon was able to load the bases and they did it on a walk off walk. So Tristan Thomas, the catcher Lyndon, he drew a walk with the bases loaded. Cale Stapleton comes in and scores. That's the game. Iberg done a little closer than they probably thought it was gonna be, especially pitching their ace against the eleven seed, but they get the win, move on to go against North kitsap who you know, the three seeds. So you think that's gonna be tougher. Linden's gonna have their number two, but Cale Stapleton really really good pitcher for a number two. They end up getting the win there, and they kind of they jumped out to a pretty early lead, so they were they were looking pretty good. I think they were up like six zero six one or for a while and then uh, and then Linden attacks on a few insurance runs late. North kits App made it interesting at the end. I was kind of it was the last game of the day being played, so I had the scoreboard already and I was kind of trying to get ahead of myself and putting the runs and hits and airs in. And then someone gets a hit. I'm like, okay, I gotta edit it again. And then they get a home run. I'm like, oh, geez, now I got to change the runs too, and I gotta do this. So but Linden, you know, they had enough of an advantage there. Again, Matt Carroll coming in and pitching the final inning, he's kind of the premier closer of Walking County gets that win. So Linden's back in the final four for the second year in a row, and getting that win over North kits App and and congratulations to Anacordis. We talked about that a little bit earlier. Another Northwest Conference team with a couple of really close victories, and they're gonna be at Joe Martin Stadium as well. Yeah, and we'll talk more about the two A state tournament. But Lynden, Columbia River, Ana Cordis, and eenam Claw, so some I'd say three teams that are very football like and then Columbia River who used to be real good in football but hasn't exactly been real good as of late. But yeah, we will talk about that a little bit more a little bit later. For now, let's move on. We'll talk players of the week here, Tyler, no sponsor yet, Fast Pitch. Who do we got in the no sponsor yet Fast Pitch player of the Week. I love how we joke about that because it's a little late in the year to get a sponsor for the player of the week. Maybe somebody wants to come in for one last one next week. Tyler, you never know, you can have it. There were so many games in fast Pitch this past week. I mean, you talk about these tournaments, you know, so many teams played so many games in them, and I watched every single one except for the Lindon Sea Drow game. I saw every other game, and and I thought, you know, if I if I witnessed all these I'm just gonna go off of more what I saw than go strictly off the numbers. And what I saw from Annalie Cohne from Mount Baker was pretty amazing because she she's the leadoff hitter, she plays short stop. There was one game where she scored six runs. I mean, that's just you don't see that stat hardly at all. Oh what tho? They scored about a billion runs in the tournament, so it's true, But I mean, to get on base six times is really hard. She scored six runs, and she's she's she never strikes out. She gets on base all the time. She steals a ton of basses. But what's even more incredible is I know she's she's been battling an injury and and she she she took kind of a collision to play at second base and she kind of hung her shoulder and she never really shows emotion. Really really tough kid. And uh then she was able to throw a little bit and then, but she ended up moving over to second base for the rest of the tournament just to kind of make sure she can get the ball to first. But she gutted it out, still played great. Just just a huge fan of watching her play because she's just so tough and and uh, you know her, you know her pants are ripped. I mean, she's she is just going all out and playing and I thought, man, she really stood out to me. There were so many good players that I could have said from this weekend that were that showed everything, showed toughness and everything. But Banni Lee Cone from Mount Baker, She's your fast pitched player of the week. Six Funeral Home, I would say Funeral Home six Funeral and Cremation Services eight zero nine west Orchard Drive, Sweet two in Bellingham three six zero six five six at fifty four fifty nine and online six at Funeral Services dot com. They do sponsor the baseball Player of the week, So Tyler, who is it well? And looking at three different teams here and a couple of them advancing, all of them getting wins, but doing against the big time competition. When I see what jonah Ossi did against Seaton Catholic, A really really powerful offensive team and shutting them down, striking him out fifteen times, scoring one run and then holding onto that winning one nothing. That's super impressive. Jonah Osse and Meridian just a junior, you know, touching up, you know that the radar gun in the low nineties, just really really impressive. Glad to see he's back to full health and then seeing what he can do when he's at that full health. Also a great offensive player too, Bat's clean up you know Leeds walking County and RBIs and Walks although nobody knows it because I don't post the stat but just a great overall player that is shining at the right time right now. So jonah Asse of Meridian is your SIG's Funeral and Cremation Services Baseball player of the Week. North County Alliance FC the sponsor the boys soccer player of the week. You can find them online and see alliancefc dot com. Tyler who is the North County Alliance FC Boys Soccer Player of the week. Yeah, I thought about going with the Seahome goalie, but you know it's it's crazy because a lot of them not allowing a goal has a lot to do with going on in the middle of the field too. I mean, they just don't let the ball be played on that side hardly at all. It's really good connection passing and communication with the Seahome guys up front. And Noah Allen, you know, scoring four goals in the first two rounds was really really impressive, so I'm giving it to him. He Noah Allen from Seahome, is your North County Alliance FC Boys Soccer player of the week. That is players of the Week, Tyler. Let's take a look ahead and we will start with the let's see here, let's start with the one A boys baseball bracket. We already talked soccer, so I guess we do got to say that, and we talked all the other sports as well. Right, let's talk one. They up there at Joe Martin Stadium in Bellingham, Meridian is going to take on the Cedar Park Christian. What was this the Is this a rematch of the of the district championship? It is? It is a Cedar Park one. That one four to two. What was really interesting about that one was that it was for nothing early and I think after like two innings and then they and then they put in Jonah Ossi at that point, and he pitched the rest of the game and didn't allow run. He also hit a two run home run, so he got the two runs in that game. So I would I would imagine they're gonna put Ossi in this game to try to, you know, try to upset Cedar Park Christian. The one seed's done, Bellevue Christian's out, So you know, I think that that might be the way to go here. You know a lot about Cedar Park Christian. You know what you might need to do, and I think that they have the guy that can take care of them. And after that tonight, know over Lake Bear Creek. You know, you save Nate Payne for that one. I mean, how amazing would that be. You got your you got your freshman pitcher pitching in the state championship game if it gets to that point, and that'd be impressive. I was, you know, I was kind of joking with the coach. I was talking to coach Slesk on the phone, congratulating him. I told him, I said, I am sorry, I'm gonna be in you know, Eastern Washington for covering fast pitch, but hopefully you can you can you know, hold out. So I can buzz back and try to make the night game on Saturday. And he just laughed and he goes, well, we'll see if we get there, so that'd be that'd be really cool. Meridian has never won a baseball state championship, and how interesting that they'd never won a boys track and field state championship either as a team, and they have a legit chance at both, which is super impressive. So I you know, we'll see. I mean, it's so cool. I mean, they know Cedar Park Christian, they know over Lake Bear Creek, don't know anything about the Beavers at Tonino. But you know, once you get to this point, it's you know, it's everybody's good. It's all hands on deck. Should be pretty impressed. Pretty good baseball up here in the Northwest. I encourage people just go out and watch good baseball, especially high school baseball, which is so fun. Come out, check check it out. Yeah, to give you an idea, a little bit of Cedar Park Christian nineteen and five on the season, I see two of their losses are two or excuse me, three of their losses are two teams from upper classification. So they had a loss to Anachordus loss of Burlington Edison and then a loss to Lake Washington won nothing. Lake Washington School right the street from my house. They were the number two seed in the three A state tournament. They did not get through to the semi finals though, But yeah, that Like Washington team is legit. I mean they are very very good. So Cuedar Park Christian team is really tough. Really quickly about Tonino. They are nineteen and six on the season. Most of their losses have come in league. It is a pretty tough league that they play in. But they also have a lost two seedar Part Christian of all teams, and a loss to seed Catholic, the other team in it is over like. They're seventeen and eight on the season. Losses to Tanino, Bellevue Christian, Lynden Christian Kings, and Sultan and then a couple of losses in league play and another one to Lynden Christian last week or I guess was it last week? Yeah, well we talked about it last week is what. Yeah, they lost eight zero I believe, Yeah, all eight runs in one inning? Yes, have you ever seen that stat about in baseball? How like the winning team scores more runs in one inning than the losing team does the entire game in like ninety percent of the games. Wow, well, I mean you have to think about it. Everything kind of makes sense, right, every shutout is the case. Yeah, And typically if you if the losing team only scores one run, most likely you know, it's probably a pretty good shot that the other team scored two in an inning. Yeah it's score to one. You probably scored two in one of those innings. Yeah, yeah, but it is a wild number, and it might even be higher than ninety percent. Like I remember being absolutely blown away when I heard the numb Yeah it's crazy, Yeah, it's crazy, but yeah, that is the one A State tournament Meridian. They will play at four pm. If they win, they will play they will play four pm on Friday. If they win, they will play seven pm on Saturday. A loss, and they will play one pm on Saturday. So they are guaranteed at least two games up there at Joe Martin Stadium, So be sure to head on out and support the boys. Tyler. Let's talk about Lindon. They are in the two A State semi finals against Columbia River. Columbia River twenty and six on the season. They got some losses against some really good teams. They also have some losses against some teams from California. It looks like they took a trip down to California and promptly went zero to three. Not a great trip, if you will, for them. But they have a couple of losses, one to Skyview, who is a pretty solid team out of the the what's it called. I can't even think of the name of the league down there now, but yeah, Skyview always good in baseball, and then or at least traditionally good in baseball. And then they also lost a one league game to Mark Morris eight to one, but then got Mark Morris again like the very next day or two days later, ten to nothing. So yeah, one of those ones that you kind of never know exactly what you're looking at there, you know what I mean. But yeah, they've got some really really good wins as well. They are the number two seed, Tyler, Yeah, I mean Lynden Columbia River. What do we know there, Yeah, not a whole lot. You know. I would imagine Lane Simonson will pitch that first game. They've been really they're feeling really strong about going with that ace in the opening game. They did it last year, they've been doing it this year. Uh, and Cale Stapleton is a dude, so they feel probably pretty confident about him going in that in the second game if they can get there in the winner's bracket. You know, especially you know with Anna Chordis on the other side, you know them pretty well. So I could go back and look and see who pitched against Ana Chordis when these two teams have played. They played each other for the district championship. They played each other in the regular season as well, so so we'll have to see. I know Simonson pitched in that district championship game. I don't remember who pitched in the regular season. But uh, but this is really cool for Corey White. You know, he'd been the coach for thirty one years, still trying to capture that first state championship in Lynnen baseball. He's been really close, especially last year. He was a pitch away basically, and so this is a great, great chance for the Linnen Lions. Yeah, they were the sixth seed, but I tell you what, they they just they just do it the right way and they know how to win and and you know, hopefully they can they can get that get that first win, and then you just never know what happens. Yeah, and you mentioned Anachordus a little bit there. Anachordus eighteen and eight on the season. Two of those losses are to Mount Vernon, who, by the way, is in the three A state semi finals. They will take on Edmunds Wood Way, I believe. And then they also have losses to Stanwood and WF West and they have they split with Linden so one win, one loss against Lyndon. They also lost to Oak Harbor, and they did lose to Meridian five to one back towards the end of April. So this Anachordus team very good, a lot of names that we would recognize from the football season as well. And then Enamklaud the number one seed. They are twenty two and two on the year. As a matter of fact, Tyler, they lost to Decatur and Tumwater and then they haven't lost since. They've won twenty two straight games. Very very impressive. Actually I think they're twenty three and two, but yeah, either way, just very impressive. That Decatur team, by the way, we beat them in our first game of the year, so I'm a little surprised to see that Eatamklaw lost to them because I didn't think they were all that great. But that's just my personal opinion. What do I know. I'm just a football guy. But yeah, twenty two and two, they do have a young man and I wish I could remember his name. If I look over the maybe the roster real quick, I can find it. What team was over Bay played for? Was that Tomwater? That was? I believe that? Are you talking Lyle over Bay or his son? His son played at Tumwater? He played it at hey list? Did he play list? Yeah? Because the Sun I don't. He was a junior last year, right, so this is his senior year. Yeah, they lost, and they lost to Enomla because I was like, because that's who beat Linden last year in the state championship and so and because all I I just couldn't remember what team. I just remember Overbay playing. Actually it looks like he was a senior last year, but oh he was. And looking at the Tumwater roster, Tyler, there is a nine a freshman Luke over Bay another one coming through, but yeah, Ana chordis enom Claw on the one side of the bracket. Linden and Columbia River on the other side of the bracket. The Lions play the ten am game up there Joe Martin, Ana chordis enom Claude. They play at one pm. The winners will play at four pm on Saturday. The losers will play at ten am on Saturday. Lots of baseball going on. There should be a lot of fun. Best of luck to We'll just say the Walkam County teams. Let's see here, Tyler, let's talk. Let's talk to a fast pitch state tournament. Now we only get one team in because those seedgrow Woollie Cubs are very very good. They are the number one seed. These games are gonna be played at is It Carlin Park, YEP in Sila. We can mention Sege Willie. They're gonna play at eleven am against Kingston. The number sixteen seed. Lyndon ends up in the same side of the bracket. They also play at eleven am. They will take on WF West. Tyler. WF West the Bearcats eighteen and six on the year. Just looking at it over here, trying to see if there's any opponents that we know of. They have lost to tomb Water, a couple of games to Aberdeen and they did lose one to Camas. Actually looks like they lost three times the Tumbwater No twice to Tumwater, twice to Aberdeen. Wow. But yeah, WF West Tyler Lynden, w F West, We've seen that game with football a couple of times recently. But uh yeah, Lyndon back in the state tournament. Yeah, it's uh, you know, and this is gonna be tough because I'm going to be in the area and I'm still trying to figure out where and when i can hit them and try to see them. It might be this first game because the first one, a game I'll be going to, starts two hours later, and I might be able to just you know, watch a couple of innings and and and get my fill there and then head back to Richland. But uh yeah, I mean the twelve seed, that's that's tough. I mean, I kind of I get it. Uh you know, Linden had some losses and and that's just kind of the way it goes. But uh man, they're They're good. They're so good. And there's been I've I've been to I've never been to Sea, I've never covered this tournament. Blake Whitman actually helped cover this tournament for me like six years ago something like that, and uh, he was there because Linden was there. See him was there. He was covering games for me. I was out at Richland. That was my first time ever at state fast pitch and so it was kind of fun doing that. But ever since then, I keep going to one A and I keep trying to because there's always like two or three teams and there's and it's usually just Lynden at Sila, so and I usually just try to kind of get information from over there. I never gone over there. I'm going to try to do it this year and see if I can buzz back and forth and put a few more miles on my car and and uh and hit track up when I can as well, and and it's gonna be pretty interesting. But but yeah, double elimination. I just hope Linden can can get through. These are all gonna be really really tough games at this point. And just a reminder anybody that's gonna in that area, majors not minors. Absolutely, that's the Burger Spot Boys, fantastic Lyndon. As I mentioned, they play at eleven am. If they win, they will move on and play again at three thirty. They will play the winner of Shadle Park, Port Angeles. If they are to lose that game, which I mean, come on, it was just pretend like it's not possible to happen, they would then go and play at one thirty, So real quick turnaround time if you lose. But yeah, best of luck to the Lions out there, and Tyler, you'll have it all weekend, all kinds of coverage going on there. Let's go on and talk about the one A Fast Pitch Day tournament, where again just the one team, because only one team comes out of the Northwest Conference or I guess technically the district which is the Northwest Conference, Mount Baker. They do get a first round by as the number two seas they will play. Now this is actually kind of interesting as well too, Tyler, because the opening round is the ten to seven game, and that'll be played the day before. That'll actually be played on Thursday, and then on Friday, Mount Baker will play the winner of Cascade Christian and College Place. They will play that game at one pm on Field two if anybody cares, but Field two the Mountaineers will take on College Place or Cascade Christian. Cascade Christian on the season nineteen and five. A couple of their losses there's some of the bigger schools, a couple of three A schools I see here. They got really really hot after starting just one in four. So they only have one loss since then, and that was to Klahowia, who is also in the state tournament. Klahowia is in as the nine seeds, so Cascade Christian and Kalahoalia two teams nine and ten, and then College Place. The Hawks, they are from eastern Washington over there in the Walla Walla area and they are seventeen and seven on the year. A little bit of a mixed bag. They won some games, they lost some games. Then they went on a real tough four game stretch there where they lost Montiseno and Hoquiam. I believe I could be wrong. I believe that was in that that was the tournament. Yeah, that little Walla Walla tournament. They yeah, I believe they were there as well, right, Montisana and Haq Yeah, I know, Montasena was for sure, oh yeah, Oklahom was too, yeah. Yeah. And so they lost sixteen to six and twenty to thirteen to those two schools, and then they lost back to back games to Royal, who, by the way, is also in the state tournament. They are the eight seed. But yeah, they after that though they've been they've been white hot. I mean they've won five straight coming into this, so it'll be interesting to see what they're what happens there with College Place and Cascade Christian. But Tyler. Mount Baker very familiar with the Columbia playfields over there in Richland. Yeah, I said, I've been there multiple times as they as have they And the best fast pitch game I've ever seen in my life was two years ago and it was Mount Baker versus College Place. That game went fourteen innings. I was keeping book, I ran out of space, I had to go to another page. I was jumping back and forth. That was the craziest game I've ever seen in my life. I think it was like four hours and forty five minutes or something like that. I mean, I was thinking, that's as long as it took for me to drive there. Yeah, and it was. It was so crazy and I'll never forget that game and a lot of these players on the Mount Baker team played in that game, and I don't know how many of the College Places players are showing that team, but I would imagine if College Place wins that there's gonna be a lot of murmur and talk about that game, which was unbelievable. I took a chance. It was two years ago, okay, So I'm just looking at their roster here. They only have three seniors, they only have two juniors, and the rest are they got a lot of sophomores, and they got four freshmen as what they have on their roster. Yeah, so there could be just a few that were there, but I know there was a handful of Baker players there because you know, they have three seniors that were definitely playing as sophomores, and they have a loaded junior class where a few of them did play as freshmen, including Annalia Kohnen and uh and Gracie's under the catcher. They were starting as freshman bat you know, lee off and clean up stuff like that, so they will definitely remember that game. I took a chance when I booked my hotel because I am showing up on Thursday, like my first night staying is Thursday, so I was open. I wouldn't have to go to an opening round game. I figured whoever came out of that one a was going to be a top four seed and would play on Friday, so I took a chance it worked, so so I should be ready to go. Like I said, though, that Friday morning, I might wake up and buzz out to yak Kama or Desila and and take in the beginning of that landing game. Hurry up and come back because if Mount Baker wins their first game, they don't plague until Saturday. So I definitely want to be there for at least something. Yes, and you know, if if and if Linden, you know, if they get into Consolation, then they might they could have a couple more games that same day. I could buzz back out there. You know, we'll find out. I'll kind of see kind of where my comfort level is and see how it can match going to you know track as well. But uh, but it's so much fun. I mean, I feel like, you know, I don't leave the county very often. We've talked about that, but I feel like I know Richland pretty well. You know, this will be my sixth or seventh time going down there, so uh, it's it'll be, it'll be, it'll be fun. My Mount Baker with the with the two seed, you can't be you know you you I mean, you can't be happier. I mean we've said it before, the one or the two. It's say it's same thing, right, you know it's it's uh, basically, you're slotted to play for the championship and and that would be fantastic because Matt Baker's got a lot of players that have played a lot of softball. I think I think like seven or eight of their players play travel ball. There's you know, there's a lot of talent on that team. And it's a good it's just a good cohesive group and and uh boy, it's uh, it's gonna be a lot of fun, a lot of lemons. And I'm gonna imagine the weather's gonna be pretty good too, Tyler, have you looked at the track and field schedule yet? I know that it's Thursday, Friday, Saturday, but I don't know what happens on Thursday, Like I don't know which events start on Thursday. Well, I'm looking at Thursday right here, and there are some finals. You could hit some finals on the way out that might be the day to go out there then, so I can't, so I don't disrupt anything else. Yeah, so uh so just looking it over. So let's see here we're talking just one A, right, yeah, yeah, so just one A. You've got the boys triple jump Fund final, you've got the boy's pull vault, the oh no excuse me, that's one B. So just the boys triple jump is on Thursday. But then as far as like field events, running events, you've got one a boys three hundred meter hurdles pre limbs, one a girls three hundred hurdles pre limbs. You've got one a boy's sixteen hundred meter final, one a girl's sixteen hundred meter final, and then you also have the one a boys one hundred meter dash pre limbs and one a girls hundred meters dash prelimbs. Yeah, that's plenty of plenty of athletes there to see I think at that point. Yeah, I mean going mc owen defending his title and triple jump. Definitely be able to see that. Yeah, in the sixteen hundred Yeah, Tyler, you aim to be there by like two o'clock. You can get yourself a burger over at majors and still get it over there on time. I think that's a fantastic idea, you see when it comes to food and and and sporting events. Yeah, I mean I'm your guy. I mean I just am like, I know how it goes over here, because then I'm looking Tyler, even on Friday, you're talking about going, you're talking about potentially rolling back to uh Sila, right right? I mean maybe what you should have done here is just booked a hotel for Thursday night in yakamav because there's it starts pretty early there on Friday. Yeah, it starts at nine am. Didn't you say there was some what were the boys? Uh? Was it the guys from Mount Baker h yeah? Ambulatory? Ambulatory? Yeah yeah, they've got the boys javelin final at nine am on Friday. Nice and we got a guy there, right, yes, we do. Yeah. I mean, Tyler, you got some stuff to do here on Friday potentially, because we've even got some ten am stuff, some some boys and girls triple jump finals, you've got high jump finals, you got shot put finals and that and that stadium and Carlon Park and Sila. They're pretty close, right, Oh, I mean everything's pretty close kind of in that area. But I mean, I mean it's like less than like half an hour. Oh, it's probably ten minutes. I mean, it's OK. Yeah, it's not very far away at all. No, the Sela to Richland, that's a little bit of a hike. Yeah that's an hour, but yeah, yeah, I mean, and I'm sure that it's probably more than ten minutes from from what's it called from Zephyl, but it's it's not very far. I know that. I mean that, I definitely know because Eisenhower is you can go straight out of If you go straight north from Eisenhower, you hop on the twelve Freeway because that road will take you right to the twelve Freeway. You hop on the twelve Freeway east and that'll take you right up Boom to Sela and you're there, and I mean fifteen It wouldn't take you very long. I know that much. But yeah, you'd have both of those things going on over there, Tyler. So yeah, you got a lot of action this weekend. Uh, you might even be more tired than me. And actually, Tyler, we're going to be in the same area. Oh. Actually, if you got nothing going on on Friday morning, we played nine thirty am. Baby, I got a lot going I know, I know, but we play. We played nine thirty am Tyler against pew Wallap, who, by the way, has the picture that we I think you and I have talked about before, Mason Pike. We are expecting to see that young man and we'll see who we throw. But it could be it could be a big time matchup between two Division one guys. There. Yeah, our guy has given up. He's given up one run in forty innings. Yeah yeah, and twenty seven of those innings have come against state tournament teams, or twenty six of those innings. So yeah, but Mason Pike that that young man is really good. Tyler. Do we have anything else to talk about? Are we done? Y? I don't think so. It's past midnight. Yeah, it's big morning coming up for me. So two weeks in a row, we've gone over two hours. So let's wrap it up, Tyler.
