  Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm not able to go to games and and
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: him and Michayla both if one's covering a boys game,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: one's covering a girl's game, then that night then I can,
• 1:36

• 1:40
  Speaker 1: that I need to work on. So it's it's been
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: very helpful. He's been great.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: I Uh, I think I saw a video that Michayla
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: made the other day and wow, Wow, it was pretty
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: single cool. Not gonna lie.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she's really getting into that. Yeah she's doing some.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Cool stuff with videos. That was really cool. But hey,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: we've got a lot of things to talk about here.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: We've we've got boys wrestling, we've got girls wrestling, and
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of names that are going to be
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: mentioned to those two. We've got boys women dive, we
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: got girls basketball, we've got boys at basketball. Tyler. But
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: before we get into it. We need some sponsors. We
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: need to be able to keep this thing going. So
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: somebody wants to sponsor, and maybe they know somebody that
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: can sponsor. What kind of information they need to pass
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: along to be able to get some sponsorships going here, Well,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: they can.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Find me on social media. Just search for Walkome Preps,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: send a personal message and go from there. Or you
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: could send me a text three six zero six eight
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: four four three zero six and just you know, just
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: say who you are and what you've interested in. And
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: like I always say, i'd always it's easier for me
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to just call and talk because then things don't get
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: mixed up in communication and we and things seem to
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: move a little faster that way too. So especially if
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: you want to jump on something winter wise, you probably
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: want to do it as soon as possible before the season.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Now that we're halfway through it, you want to, you know,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: get on it as soon as possible. So I remember
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: there's been times when, like on a Sunday night at
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: ten thirty, I got a text asking about sponsoring a graphic. Well,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the next graphic was Monday morning, and we worked out
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: all the details that night to where Monday morning. I
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: did the graphic with their logo on it so it
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: could be turned around quickly, and that's what we're hoping
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: to do.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So if you know somebody, if you whatever it is,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: tell them how to get a hold of Tyler, and
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: let's get some get some more cash flow going in
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: here to watch them preps so that Tyler can keep
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: doing this stuff. But Tyler, we've got boys and girls
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: wrestling here, and there was even some matches this week
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: between some local teams, So let's get right into things here.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Tuesday night, Tyler, looks like there was three matches, but
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: we only have scores for two of them.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Boys wrestling Tuesday night, Ferndale defeated Cascade Everett sixty
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: three to sixteen. Burlington Edison beat Brett Bellingham fifty four
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: to thirty, and Ferndale also took on Short Crest, but
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: we're unable to find out what the final was there.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Thursday, there was one match between Squalcum and Linden. The
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Storm come out on top fifty five twenty two. Tyler,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: We've got a lot of stuff listed here for Friday
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: and Saturday. Now I'm intrigued because one we have no
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: scores from anything on Friday. This is something that we
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: pumped up last week nothing, so maybe it didn't happen.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know. But then I see here, Tyler, on Saturday,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: you have Ferndale over Anna Cordis.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I did see a two zero score, which I
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: thought was interesting. Yeah, And so I don't know because
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I can't imagine it'd be a forfeit against Anna Chordis.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: No, but they were supposed to wrestle Friday, and on
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Saturday it says two nothing. So I don't know. Lots
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: of confusing things, but this is kind of one of
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: those things where it's like, hey, we need some help
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: here from the wrestler from I mean, here's the thing
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: to Tyler. The wrestlers out there, they can give scores
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: like we don't need who won every single match all
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: that stuff. But if Seahome was wrestling and a chorus
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: on Friday, then somebody from Seahome had to be there,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: you know. Now. I don't know if there was. I
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: know that Seahome was in a tournament on Saturday, so
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe they did not wrestle on Friday.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: It would be kind of weird to wrestle back to
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: back like that. But yeah, I don't know, I mean,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: we don't know exactly what went on, but yeah, I
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: can tell you this much, Tyler. There were some tournaments
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: on Saturday. There was actually a couple of big ones here.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: And also it looks like there was a dual tournament
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: teams wrestling teams, if you will. And I don't know
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: that it was a tournament because the information is kind
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: of hard to come by, but what I see kind
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: of looks more like I even know how you say, it,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: kind of just like a round robin, like let's all
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: get together and bunch. But yeah, one, two, three, four. Whoops,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: I put that in there wrong, Tyler, that is boom.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: But yeah, Bellingham and Blaine they were down at Mount
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Vernon is what it says online. And yeah, i'd say
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: a rough little go for both schools, but they both
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: got in five matches.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's huge just to get in that many,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: you know, going in and didn't have to travel too far.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: And it looks like some pretty stiff competition here. Bellingham
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: defeated Monroe but lost to Silas they lost a White
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: River and Everett and Stanwood and Marysville, Pilchuck and Blaine.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: They defeated Monroe and Everett, but lost to White River
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Silas and Marysville Pilchuck as well. So yeah, it does
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: look kind of like a round robin type thing where
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: and I remember seeing Bellingham wrestle in one of these
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: a year ago as well, where you kind of had
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: these pods and you know, you would do a thing
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: where they there was like four pods of four and
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: or four pods of five or something like that, and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: you'd wrestle each team in your pod, and then like
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the top winner of each pod would you know, would
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: wrestle each other in the second places, would dress each
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: other or something like that. It was got something interesting
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: like that, So could have been something like that that happened.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: All that matters is you're just trying to get in
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: matches and stuff and just keep going on the season,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: which is pretty cool. Yeah.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what went on with that one
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: down there, because it didn't even look like they reported
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: all the information. So that's the information that we have
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: from that one. The Paul I believe it's Paul Ryman
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Memorial Tournament down there in Mount Vernon, a big one
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: down in Snawhomish the snow Homish Panther Classic. Snowhomish comes
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: away with the team victory. Glacier Peak finish the second Jackson.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: They finished third, Squalicum finished sixth, Sea Home ninth, and
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Lyndon tenth. Tyler, let's run through some of the weight classes. Here,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: tell me who placed. We will start with one thirteen.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Adrian Bauer of Seahome took second place, and Andrew
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Bishop of Linden took.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Sixth place one hundred and twenty pounds.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Artizio Hernandez of Linden took.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Sixth place one hundred twenty six pounds.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Alicio Ortiz Lopez of Linden also took sixth place.

  Speaker 2: One thirty two.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Aiden Rodriguez of Lynden took third place, and Chris Lee

  Speaker 1: Fine Hines of Squalicum took fourth place.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Three wrestlers placed in the one hundred and fifty pound
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: weight class.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how about that. Miguel Lopez of Lyndon took second place.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Caden Jordan of Squalicum took fourth, and Sawyer Hirsch of
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Seaholme took fifth.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: And we got our first champion in a county Watcom
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: County one hundred and fifty one hundred and fifty seven
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: pound championship.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how about that. Colin McGivern so Seahome defeated Darren
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Nielsen of Squalicum for the championship. So McGivern takes first place,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Nielsen of squalcumb second place.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: And we get another champion at one hundred and sixty
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: five pounds in what is also three Watcom County guys placing.

  Speaker 1: Yeah, Grant Oliver Seaholmes had a really strong year, takes
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: first place at one sixty five Aiden Holmes third place
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: in the same weight class, and Simon Blast of Squalicum
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: took sixth place.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: I looked to see if Oliver and Holmes wrestled each other,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: and they did not. Holmes lost in I believe the
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: quarterfinals to the guy that Oliver beat in the semi finals,
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: so they would have wrestled each other. Yeah, they didn't
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: get that far. One hundred and seventy five pounds.

• 10:56
  Speaker 1: this in this in this tournament. This is loaded tournaments.

• 12:20
  Speaker 2: any of the wrestlers in the county, Like Sila Maple.

  Speaker 2: an all county affair out there.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Mount Baker got Meridian forty two to thirty, and
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: then Blaine beat Mount Baker forty eight. To eighteen.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: That's a I mean, that's a really good win there
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: for Blaine if they're if Mount Baker's beaten Meridian like
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: they did, and then Blaine coming around doing the same thing.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Uh, Thursday, there was four listed, but we only got
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: a score for one, Tyler.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, squalk them over, Spellingham in a close one thirty
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: six to thirty. The other three we do not know
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: the scores of. Yeah.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Again, this is where we need a little help from
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: the from the girls side of things. We can get
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: that we can we can report on everything. A couple
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: of tournaments this weekend that we could find over on
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: good Old Track Wrestling there, Tyler. The first one quite
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: possibly the biggest brackets I've ever seen my life. It
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: was so big that on the website you actually had
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: a top and a bottom bracket. I don't know that
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: I've ever seen one that big before. But it was
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: called the Braided sixty four down in Kelso. I believe
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: it was at Kelsel High School, but which I don't
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: know how big that gym is. Holy crap, I mean
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: that's got to be. I mean, I don't know where
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: else they would do it, but I guess maybe is
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: there a convention center down there. I don't know.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Maybe they do it like a hotel, you know what
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, if you got a hotel, it's got a
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: couple of conference centers or something. I don't know. But
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: sixty four, I mean it's crazy. You'll mention it here
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: in a little bit. But there was one girl that
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: wrestled ten matches in two days, Tyler, I mean, holy cow.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't even know that I've ever wrestled
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: ten in two days. I wrestled in a lot of tournaments,
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: but ten, that's wild to me. But Blaine, Ferndale, Mount Baker,
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Seahome and Squalcum. Now, with the huge turnout, not everybody
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: brought the whole roster. It looks like it was really
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: a lot of high quality wrestlers. I can tell you
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: that much because there's some girls that went on to
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: win the championship and they like didn't even get out
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: of the first round in any of them. I mean,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: they just pinned everybody in like a minute. It was crazy.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: But we did have some four wrestlers I guess, if
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: you will, for wrestler from the county that did place
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: over the weekend. Yeah, and that tells you a lot
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: right there.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: That means that these four you're gonna look for in
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the postseason to do some damage at one hundred and
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: five pounds. McKenna Losier of Blaine took seventh place at
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty pounds. Claire Hume of Squaloum took
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: fourth place. She was the one that wrestled ten matches
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: in two days.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Was is just crazy.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Tyler Olsen of Mount Baker took sixth place at one
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: hundred and forty pounds, and Brook Legaux of Squalakum took
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: sixth place at one hundred and forty five pounds.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: The crazy thing about the ten matches too, is like
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: when you look over the brackets or any of it,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: it doesn't say how many she wrestled each day, So
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: it could have been five and five, it might have
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: been six and four. I mean, I don't even know,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: but that's pretty crazy. I mean, she wrestled ten in
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: two days. The girl that won her weight class only
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: wrestled like seven, and that was to win it, you
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: know what I mean. It's like, my goodness, it was
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: crazy too, because she she won three, lost her fourth,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: and then won like five straight. I mean she had
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: She end up going eight and two on the weekend
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: and finished fourth.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, and I thought the macho man Randy Savage
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: had it tough when he had to wrestle four matches
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: at WrestleMania four to win the undisputed heavyweight Championship.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's just me. You know what, Tyler, We

• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Rock Island Rumble out at gig Or gig Harbor, Oak
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: harb I mean, that's an easy one to mess up.

  Speaker 2: But Oak Harbor High School out on Widby Island, the
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Oak Carver Wildcats. They come away with the team victory
• 16:45

• 19:13
  Speaker 2: through and talk about some of the top times. I
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: believe was it last week Tyler, did you put out
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: a post about like updated everything? And yeah, it was.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: It was kind of a mid season report. It just
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: kind of showed where all the teams were, what are
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: the big events were that were coming up. There was
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: a few swimmers, I believe a diver from Sea Home
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: that hadn't hadn't competed yet this year, so expect some
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: big things from them. Just kind of what to look
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: for and and you know, talking about how Ferndale, you know,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: they're only in their third year of existence, they used
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: to be a co op with Squalicum. Linden only has
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: twelve swimmers on the whole team. And so it's talking
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: about how that kind of works, of how to get
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: the most out of your the most points out of
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: your team by you know, mixing and matching and doing
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: different things and and a lot of really good information
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: there if you want to kind of find out where
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: everybody is. And January is a loaded month for swimming diving.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just there's stuff constantly. You know, December
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: is a little broken up, there's a big break, and
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: then they just get right into it all month of
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: January where there's a lot of events happening.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: If you go back right now as I speak, Tyler,
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: go back to just three pages on the front page
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: of Walcom Preps, you can find the thing you're talking
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: about here. Catch up with the twenty twenty five boys
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: swimming diving teams. And since that day that you posted that,
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: there's already been three roundups too.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: So oh yeah, yeah, Like I said, January it gets busy.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. And that was four straight days in a
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: row of WACOM Preps Boys swim and dive coverage. So
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: a lot of stuff going on there. Let's talk some
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: of the top times and we'll go over the new
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: times that we have here from the county. Let's talk.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: When I say that we're talking the top times of
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: the swimmers in each of these what do we come
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: up with the word? Not classifications? Yeah, events, But there
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: was a better discipline I think disciplines. Yeah, yeah, I
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: guess maybe, I mean, I don't know.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I always feel like a discipline's a different way of swimming.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: So it's like a two hundred freestyle and the fifty
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: free style is the same discipline. They're just different distances.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I got you.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I guess, I mean technically, but I mean,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: I know what you're talking. People know what we're talking.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Let's go two hundred individual Medley Tyler.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a new time by Cooper Yardsley has squalic them
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: two minutes fifteen point five to seven.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Seconds, and we got a new time in the fifty freestyle.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the quick one there Odin Overson of Ferndale now
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: has the new time at twenty four point one seconds.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: If I was ever to do a swim and dive event,
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: I'd be awful in the dive because it would just
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: be a lot of splashing, But it would have to
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: be the fifty free just because I don't know that
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: I could go to more than fifty, Like I mean,
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I know, like like I've watched the breastroke, I've watched
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: the butterfly, Like yeah, I mean, I don't know. Maybe
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: I could put it in a time for those, but
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know that I could go, you know, two
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: hundred free right. I definitely couldn't do the two hundred
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: individual medley. You think I'm gonna do all of them?
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Right, get out of here. I mean maybe is there
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: one like is the two hundred medley relay? Is that
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: one where you do like fifty of each? It's yeah,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: two hundred.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: You get four different people, you find someone that's an
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: expert at each one, and then you yeah.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: See there we go. So I would only have to
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: do fifty or is that two hundred? No, it's fifty each? Yeah,
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: perfect total? Yeah, yeah, perfect? Because then like, okay, so
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: right here we've got who do we got here? We've
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: got squalicum. I don't know which one does the fifty
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: three in that, but I'll take it over and maybe
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: we can catch up on the other three. Yeah, here
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: you go. Probably not, but by the way, they're flying
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: at a buck fifty three on that one. But we've
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: got do we already say? Oh yeah the one meter

  Speaker 1: his first time to compete this year and already has
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: the top score at one hundred and seventy four point seven.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Do we know what the top score was before he
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: put up that number?
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: It was like one, It was like around one fifty,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: probably Miles Ludwig of Bellingham.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: So he hammered it pretty good.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Huh, yeah, he's he's pretty good.

  Speaker 2: we've got girls. What do we call it? Standings Girls?
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: Weekly Update. I don't even know what we call it here,
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: but let's go through and we will talk about Bellingham
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: five and five, Ferndale five and seven, Sea Home five
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: and seven, and Blaine at two and eight. Tell me
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: about those four.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Bellyam just had the one game this week. They
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: beat Okarver forty nine to twenty three. They're just so
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: much more improved than last year. It's basically the exact
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: same team as last year, but there's you could see
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: the improvement with every single kid, which is awesome to see.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: I love what coach mcclennon's doing over there, keeping them
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: right at five hundred right now. Ferndale had a long week.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: They played three games, lost a squalk in forty nine
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: thirty five, beat Everett sixty two to forty five, then
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: lost to Mount Vernon fifty two to thirty four. I
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: was at that game where they hosted Everett, and it
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: was so funny because right away, I mean the I
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: mean in the first forty five second and Brooklyn Larrabie
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: had a steal and score twice, and and so it
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: was you know, the guy that runs the scoreboard at Ferndale,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: They have a really fancy scoreboard with all sorts of
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: graphics and cool things. His name is Brian. He came
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: over to me and he goes, man, she might have
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: a double double with this game with points and steals,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: and I said, she's done it once before, and and
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: she ended up with eighteen points and ten steals in
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: that game, So just such quick hands, so athletic, and
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: so glad that she's playing basketball. And then but then
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: they did drop that one to Mount Vernon out at
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: the old gym, and and I had a chance to
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: be the color commentator on that on that game, but
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: I was not. I had other things going on, but
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I was contacted to I did give them some information
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: of the Ferndale stats and stuff like that, so hopefully
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: that helped a little bit. But yeah, that was Marek
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Parnell was broadcasting that game, and he had contact me
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: the day before and asked about that. But but Ferndale
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: played some, you know, some tough competition and they're a
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: really really young squad and they're gonna look the exact
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: same next year too, so uh, you know, they're they're
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: they're they're coming together. They put up points, but they
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: shoot a lot, so if you if you have an
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: offshooting night, that's tough. And that and then that Mount
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Vernon game, I mean, they they were in it in
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and are going into the fourth quarter.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: But it was all bulldogs.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: In that fourth quarter, Ferndale got into some foul trouble
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: and it just kind of went downhill after that. Uh,
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Seom had a pretty good week. They beat nooks Or
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: they lost Nuksack Valley thirty nine to thirty two in
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: a close game there again in Knoks like fallally, a
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: very good team. And then they turned around and beat
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: Okar fifty nine to nineteen at home, just just drubbed them.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: They looked great. I think Aspen Barge had like five
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: block shots in that game. Uh. She she was really
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: really good in that game. Taylor Terrell and that group
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: again a very young group as well. I don't believe
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: they have a senior either. So you know, a lot
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: of good young teams around right now. Blaine Blaine put up,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: you know, putting up thirty seven points. That was that
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: was good to see. I was at that game. Uh
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: they lost to Mount Baker fifty three to thirty seven.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: I was there for at least I had to stay
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: till halftime. They let me shoot a half court shot
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: there for a pizza. Came up just a little bit short.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: But that's the story of my life. And then uh,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: but then they lost to Lenny Christian fifty six to fifteen.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Lenny Christian, you know that's a that's the top one
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: a team around that's a tough matchup for Blaine, who's
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: still you know, getting experience just playing the game again
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: with a lot of these girls. Like we've talked about
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: so two and eight on the season right now, and
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: it's just it's it's just a tough conference. If you're
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: a team that has a bunch of new basketball players
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: for the first time in years, it's a tough conference
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: to get into and and just and compete. So but
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: I thought they played really well against Mount Baker. They
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: were in that game in the second half. Still it
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: just kind of it just kind of ran out of
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: gas there at the end.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: But I think coach Wolfus is doing a great job. Yeah, No,
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: nothing to keep your you know, to put your head
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: down about in that lost Lynnen Christian. I mean, end
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: of the day, there's two teams that had a much
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: worse time, much much worse time this week in the
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: county that we'll talk about here in a second. But
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: let's see here, by the way, not a good week
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: for Oak Harbor in the county. Well, my goodness, they
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: took a couple on the chin here Meridian eight and four,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: Knokzack Valley eight and four, Squall Comes six and five,
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Mount Baker six and five, Tyler, let's talk about those four.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Meridian you know dropped a few this week that
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: you know, they battled Linden Christian sixty five twenty five
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: loss there, which you know, I'm not surprised they lost.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: I guess I'm a little surprised it was by that much.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: You know, Meridians much improved this year, kind of really
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: shows what Lindon Christian can do. And then the lost
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: to Anna Chordis that was a tough one, forty seven
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: to thirty nine at home. I was at that game,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm watching warm ups and they're looking good
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, they're missing somebody. And it was Eaton Bernardi.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: And I walked over to the coach and said hi,
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: and I said, where's Eating at. He's like, oh, she's
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: got a fever. She's not feeling well and out of
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: all the players, like she's the one who would probably
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: want to play anyways, and he was like she was
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: just like, yeah, she came out to practice yesterday, and
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: but they're like, you know she you know, it's it's
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: probably best because you know, they got Nuksack Valley this
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: up this next week and get have her rest and
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: get ready for that game because that one's going to
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: be a big one in the one A you know,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: standings there to you know for seeding for districts all
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: that stuff. So I get that there's a tough lost
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: to Anni Chortus. They were I think they were up
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: in the in the second half too, but the Seahawks
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: came back and won that one.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Nuksack Valley had had a I think a great week
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: beating Sea Hoome thirty nine thirty two at home and
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: then losing to Burlington Edison by just five points. Burlington
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Edison girls are really really good. Would not be surprised
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: if they go to state in the limited amount of
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: allocations that are allowed from up here in the two
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: way with some really good teams, I could see them
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: being one of those teams. So that tells you how
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: good they are. In Nukxac Valley really starting to just
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: kind of you know, it's it's a weird year because
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: you know, obviously two time defending state camps. You got
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: some players that experience that, but you got another you know,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: half your team is brand new to the varsity game.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: And when it's funny because when even when you look
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: at the shot attempts, you know, you have four players
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: out of you know, the ten on your team or whatever,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: four of the players make up like ninety five percent
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: of your shot attempts.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: And those are the four players with the.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Experience, and so these other five or six that are
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: still kind of getting used to it, they'll, you know,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: it's just every single week they're just gonna get more,
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: you know, more and more comfortable with everything. And and
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: you know, by playoff time they could be a really
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: tough team to beat. Uh Squalkum had a fantastic week
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: beating Ferndale forty nine to thirty five and then beating
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker fifty to thirty eight. They look like because
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: now they're kind of fully healthy now and Addison Ketman
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: is back from a knee injury, and and there was
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: a few other players that missed a game here and there.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: But now that they're all together that it's they're starting
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: to play like I kind of figured they would. They're
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: very very athletic, very young, but very athletic. Lexi Robbins
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: is just so good at running that team, and her
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: outlet passes are amazing. I mean, she can she I've
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: seen her, was like, you know, fifty foot passes over
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: everybody to find the lead, you know, someone who's out
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: out ahead of everybody and just get her placed perfectly
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: for a layup on the other side. It's just like,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: holy count. She'll do it multiple times and it's really
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: really fun to see Mount Baker. They beat Blayane fifty
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: three thirty seven, but then lost to Squalk and like
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: I said, fifty to thirty eight. They were up at
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: halftime there, but they really took it on the chin
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: in the third quarter, had a big time strong comeback
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: in the fourth, but just kind of ran out of time.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker right now is it's interesting with Rebecca Sorez
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: because how teams player is always weird to see because
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: you'll see a lot of double teams, triple teams, and
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: just to kind of see where she ends and when
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: when you look at the stat line at the end
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: of it, you kind of go, oh, interesting, Like I
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: think she only had like four or five shot attempts
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: against Squalicum, but she went nine of eleven from the
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: foul line, so that she ended up they ended up
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: a lot, you know, hacking her a lot and doing
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: different things but she you know, like I said, she
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: made nine of eleven, so she made them pay a
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: little bit at the foul line, but just couldn't do
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: enough after that. She was looking for open teammates. There
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: was a lot of three pointers made, which was huge,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: especially when they when they crashed down. She can kick
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: it out. She can see everything, so it's really interesting
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: to see. And I had been in a few games
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: now where like people have said, well, I don't know
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: what all the hub up is. She's she didn't really
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: impress me that much. And then you look at the
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: box score and she went like she had like twenty
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: three thirteen, you know, six assists, four steals, and three blocks,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: and it's like, I think there's a lot of expect
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: If you've ever watched her play, you're expecting this. You know,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: you're expecting the greatest player you've ever seen, and so
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: if she misses a shot, you're like, well, what is it?
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think she's all that great and that, But
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: and then you look at the box go and go, Okay, yeah,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: she's pretty durn good. So I got that a couple
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: times in the last couple of weeks from people, and
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: so I just thought that was interesting, and I was like, well,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: look at just watch see what she does by the
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: end of the game, because trust me, she's pretty durn good.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. It's it's funny like that too. There's
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: a there's a young man at Bothel that people kind
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: of like kind of you know, I don't even know
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: what i'd say, Like, I don't know, I don't see it.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: I'm like, bro, he had forty points. Like what are
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: you talking about? Like, like, what don't you see? He
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: had forty points and we won by seventeen against the
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: team that only had one loss on the year, Like
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: what are you talking about? Like, you know what I mean. Like,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: sometimes it just it's not like people are haters necessarily,
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: but it's like they kind of forget sometimes.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Like oh, really high expectations.
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah well, but also it's like sometimes it's like, oh
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: he had forty Oh well, never mine, Like all right,
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: I guess maybe he had. He had way more points
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: than I was expected, you know what I mean? But yep,
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: you know, sometimes you watch a whole game and you
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: don't realize that somebody had. I fully admitted the night
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: that I was there watching and he hit for forty
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: and afterwards, I go, I go, I said, I'm a
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: little surprised he took that shot there kind of late
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: in the game. Oh well, it got him to forty points.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: And I went, huh he had forty. I was like, man,
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: I don't have thought he had like maybe twenty five,
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? But right, yeah, like wow,
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: three more teams left here, Tyler Lummy Nation. They are
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: now ten and three on the season, Lennon Christian ten
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: and two, and Linden the Lions is still undefeated at thirteen.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: And oh yeah, Lummy Nation had a good week, beating
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: a Cedar Park Christian of lynn Wood sixty five to nine,
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: and then the game against Taholo was was awesome because
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: it's a conference game against a team that kind of
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: gave them a little bit of a fit. I mean,
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: they were up by fourteen after the first quarter. They
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: ended up winning by fourteen, So that was that was
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: really interesting to see because they really needed that early
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: run because Stahola came back and played really really well,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: and and you know, Lemmy's just very very strong. I
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: mean they are They're just really good overall. And I
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: like it when they get pushed a little bit because
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: you can see, you know, they've had some games where
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: they hold teams to under too single digits and it's
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: kind of like, well, it's a lot of steals and
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: scores and it's it's hard to really see their set
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: offense and what they can do. But when they play
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: against a team that's pretty good, it's a lot of
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: fun to watch and they it's a it's really really cool.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: So that that was awesome to see, Uh, Lindy Christian
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: still undefeated in conference play beating Meridian sixty two to
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: twenty five and Blaine fifty six fifteen. So a couple
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: of one A schools that they're gonna, you know, maybe
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: meet up again in the district tournament. Showing their dominance thing.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Lynni Christians just so well, you know, just everything. I
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: think they have the best three point percentage as a
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: team out of all the girls teams in Walking County.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: They just they can really spread it out. They have length,
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: they they they're they're they're deep, they got a deep bench,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: They rebound, they do all things. They don't turn the
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: ball over. I mean, it's just it's a it's a
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: really really fun to see. It's gonna be interesting to
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: see them against Lyndon down the road here and then
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: of course Linden only had the one game this week.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: Took it out on side Woolly seventy nine to sixteen,
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: now thirteen and oh on the season and seed Joe Woollie.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're not a bad team. They're coached by
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Ken Crawford, who the listeners might know. I mean he's
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: the Walkin County legend. I mean he he coached the
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: Bellingham Boys too, you know, a few hundred wins there.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: I think at three different stints. He's just one of
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: those guys that's a lifer coach. I mean he'd always
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: come back and coach. He would, he'd coach girls, he'd
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: coach college, he'd go do this, he'd come back. But
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: every time you saw him, he was coaching. And I
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: tell you what, when I worked at the Herald, you know,
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: twenty something years ago, I loved covering Bellingham Boys because
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: I couldn't wait to talk to coach Crawford after the game.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: And I was always hoping the game was in Bellingham
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: because I had a deadline and I had to get
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: back to the Harold to get my story done by
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: eleven forty five because he would talk to me for
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: like an hour, and it was but it was so
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: interesting and intriguing because he was so open about what
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: his game plan was and how he did this and
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: what he saw and how he adjusted to it. I mean,
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: I could just talk to him about basketball forever. And
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: he just celebrated his five hundred win and his coaching
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: win a couple of weeks ago, so that was really cool.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: I'd love to catch up within him. I remember seeing
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: him at the Key Arena right right before a Sonics
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: game years ago, and I think that before the game
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: his team was playing there and like some you know,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: like like a two or three game, like a double
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: triple header high school thing before the game. And yeah,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: he's he's just a great guy. So I'm glad he's
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: still doing it. But Linden, I mean, Lindon, they're still
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: doing it too. Thirteen and zero on the season. I
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: don't know, you know, I just hope the one thing
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: I really hope for is that when they once they
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: get into postseason and doing that, I hope they get
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: tested a little bit because they kind of need to be.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: You just there's certain things that you just never know.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: I always think back at that UNLV team back in
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: the early nineties that would just just crushed everybody. But
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: then once they got into a close game, they kind
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: of panicked and it was different. It was like, oh,
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: what do we do. We've never been in this situation before,
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: you know, And that was a little it was a
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: little tough for them. And I don't think that's gonna
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: happen with Lindon. There are things that they can work on.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're outside shot is not exactly what it
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: could be. But man, other than that, they're just they
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: have everything else and things are going very very well.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: Coach Adams is such a great coach and he has
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: them undefeated right now.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: So Tyler, if I said to you, what is the
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: mascot of what would you say? Oh? You know.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: What's so funny is that I usually have to look
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: it up if I don't know to write the story. Yeah,
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: and I ended up not having to use the mascot's
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: name in the story for the girls or Boys, and
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: lem Nation played them played them both the same day
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: on Saturday, so I did not look it up. So
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: I have no clue.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: It says here Tahola's mascot is the Chitwin or black
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: bear chitwins are are revered throughout the Quinault Indian Nation's history.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: They have a deep respect for the black bear, and
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: I was pleased to see that my black bear cousins
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: had such a special place in their hearts. That's awesome. Yeah,
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: now that being said, Tyler, how far do you think
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: the drive is from Tahola to Lamu Nation? Because all
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: they did was played a one game?
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Well, the boys and girls both came out.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: So yes, but just one. I mean, just one game
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: is what I'm saying. For the like, yeah, yeah, obviously
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: it's both, but just one game for the girls.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: How far?
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: How far do you think they drive?
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Three and a half hours?
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: Four and a half? Oh, boy, four and a half.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: That's nine hours of driving in one game just to
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: play a couple of basketball games. Mike, and I think
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: it's I think it's a conference game. I didn't see
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: them listed as conference. But oh okay, it's hard to
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: the I should probably change my story then, well, the
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: one A or the one bees. It's it's always so
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: weird even in football, Like half the time I can't
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: figure out who's in which conference and stuff because like
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: Lemmy and Nia Bay are in the same conference. But
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: well they they're pretty far apart. I mean, they're actually
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: not that far apart, like as the crow flies. But
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: driving time, Yeah, driving is a heck of a drive.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: But let's see here, Tyler, that is it for the
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: scoreboards for girls basketball. Let's talk about stat leaders. And
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: the stat leaders for girls basketball are brought to you
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: by Acceleration Driving School and Lindon give them a phone
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: call at three six zero seven four six four five
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: six seven. That's three six zero seven four six four
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: five six seven.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: I mean a lot of the same names. I don't
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: know if they're in the same spots, but man, I
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: know all these names by this point, Tyler.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, I think they're all the
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: same here. They're just the numbers have changed a little bit.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh okay, Well, let's start with points per game, Tyler.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: Who is the who's the leader there?
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Still Finley partcher of lynnon the sophomore stand out there,
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: twenty two point six points per game. Just it just
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: went lowered a little bit from that one game that
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: was played. Rebounds per game, yeah, still Grace Dhoague of
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: Noksack Valley, the Junior Center there, she's down to fifteen
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: rebounds a game.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: Down to fifteen. This is the only one that maybe changed.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: Maybe I feel like maybe the next girl might have
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: also had the assist number. Maybe I can't remember. But
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: assists per game no.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Lexi Robbins of Squalkum, she's she's held this for a
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: little while now and she's upped it. She had a nine.
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: She had nine assists against Mount Baker. Again with those
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: those outlet passes, those lead passes when they have they
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: just have a young, fast team and when when they run,
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: she can lead it really well. She's up to five
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: point six assists per game. She was around I think
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: she was at four point seven coming into it. So
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: she's really starting to extend that lead right now.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Nine assists is wild.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: Steals per game, yeah, Gemma James of Lamination again, she's
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: at five point six steals per game. She's down. She
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: was in the sevens there for a while. But what
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: happens is when you play these teams that are a
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: little more difficult and you're not going to rack up
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: all those steals and so but she's Brooklyn Larrabie is
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: knocking on the door right now. I think Brooklyn Larrabie
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: is like at five point two, five point three and
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: UH and the quality opponents the Ferndale has played. That
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: shows me a lot from the sophomore point guard out
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: with the Golden Eagles.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: Wait with who?
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Well, Brooklyn Larrabie, I was who I was talking about.
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: How she's really close now with the with the UH,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: with the quality oppotans that they've been playing.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, does she?
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: Does she play other sports? Yeah? She was number I
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: think she was number three on the volleyball top fifty countdown.
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Okay, as to say her name sounds familiar, but
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: then doesn't she also have like a brother, yeah, baylorl
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: the Baylor that's right, I remember him too. Yeah, yes, yeah,
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: that's UCLA.
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard that name a lot more than I
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: ever would have if we only covered football, Tyler, let
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: me tell you exactly. How about where are we at here?
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: Blocks per game?
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Aspen Barge of Seahome, she was hovering right at
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: two for for the last three or four weeks. She
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: had that big game against Oakkarber. She's up to two
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: and a half blocksberg game now.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: Field goal percentage yeah.
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: Alison Shoemate of Lenny Christian. She actually upped her percentage
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: to extended lead now to sixty four point three that
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: game against Blaine. I think she was eight for ten
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: in that game. So so she's really starting to separate herself.
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: Three point percentage.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: Daniel Dyksher of Lendy Christian is still above fifty percent
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: on the year. She was actually right at fifty percent
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: at this time last week. She had a pretty darn
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: good week. Again, she's now twenty one of forty one,
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: so she's fifty one point two percent from beyond the arc. Incredible.
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: That is just stupid. I mean it is she is.
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: She is so good.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, her dad was one of the best athletes
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: the Walking County ever saw. His name was Greg Dykstra,
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: and he was a year younger than me, and he
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: was like he was so good. Like his nickname was
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: the Greg. Like that doesn't even mean anything, but when
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: people said the Greg, everyone knew what you meant because
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: he was he was a three sport guy. I mean
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: I could tell you. I mean as a sophomore he
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: caught like fifty eight passes or something his sophomore year.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: He was He's a quarterback. He's supposed to play quarterback
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: or they needed they want they knew he was gonna
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: be the quarterback the next couple years, or else he
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: would have, you know, had some amazing receiving stats. But
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: he goes and plays quarterback, wins the state championship as
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: a senior, goes to Western and breaks their receiving records.
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: So it goes back to you know, and then and
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: he ends up like playing basketball his senior year at
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: Western just to do it, just for fun. Yeah, and
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: his brother Grant is like the all time leading scorer
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: for Western basketball. And you know that's why that's where
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: you're seeing all the Gannon Dyksters and Tyra Diikster's and
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: Gunner Dykester's and you know, all these dykes. I mean,
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: it's just this and then and Grandpa Glenn Dykster won
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: a state title nineteen seventy six, and I mean, it's
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: it's pretty incredible the lineage there. And so there's no
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: surprise that a lot of these Dykesterras that Lenny Christian
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: are doing some great things.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: He just goes by the greg still, do you think, I.
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: Don't think so. He's super humble. He's super humble. He
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: was he probably hate to hear all this, but and
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: then you know when then baseball, I mean for your
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: guy left handed pitcher, centerfielder.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: I mean it was just he's like a Brazilian soccer player,
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: just one name, like Ronaldinho. Yeah. Yeah. You remember for
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: a while they had a guy that was just Fred.
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: He was like he was like one of their best strikers,
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: just Fred. Like wait a minute here.
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: The crazy thing was there was another Greg the same
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: class that went to blame Greg Wright, who was amazing,
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: amazing athlete, three sport guy. And so it's like and
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: but Greg Deekster was the Greg. So I mean it
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: was it was crazy. That class was was ridiculous. But yeah,
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Daniel Deikstra fifty one point two percent. And she's six
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: feet tall and she's a guard, so that's that's scary too.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: I mean she just she can see the basket so well.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: People that are guarding her not near her height, so
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: has a really good shot. She's she's got a dead on,
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: you know, she's bullseye with it every time. She would
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: be the tallest girl on Boffel by three inches. Literally, Yeah,
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: our tallest girl's five to nine. But you know what,
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: our girls play their butts off. Let me tell you,
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: because they kind of have to.
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: Last one. Tyler free throw percentage.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Finley Parker did not take a shot. They only
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: had one game, so she remains at eighty two point
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: six percent. She's thirty eight for forty six on the season.
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: And I tell you what if we did, if you
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: did percentages of like not even hitting the rim, she'd
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: probably even have a bigger advantage because her shots are
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: about as pure.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: As it gets. That is it for girls basketball again.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: Thank you to Ediling Dairy and Acceleration Driving School in

  Speaker 2: Dairy also does sponsor the daily scoreboards. Yeah, Tyler, we've
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: got there's a lot of action boys basketball. Let me
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: tell you here looking at some of these scores too,
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: in my goodness, we will start with Ferndale six and six,
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: squal them six and six, see Home four and eight,
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: and Blame two and eight.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Ferndale had a big week, played three games, beating
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Squalick them fifty three to forty two, beating Mount Vernon
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: fifty four fifty two. That was a great game. I
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: was at that one for for a chunk of it. Anyways,
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: they were up nineteen to two to start out the game.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: We don't really need they needed all of it, but
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: by winning by two points. Because the Mount Vernon Bulldogs
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: are very athletic and very like you know, if you
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: can get them, that's a huge feather in your cap.
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: And so for Ferndale to jump out big and hold
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: on to win that game was huge. Cooper Vincent had
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: a big three pointer in the third quarter that really
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: helped them kind of stay afloat. Sometimes you get those
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: in the right opportune times, and that's a that's a
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: huge shot to keep going on that They did lose
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: to Anti Chordus though, to finish off the week fifty
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: seven to forty six. That's tough because I think that's
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: a game, I mean, A Chordis is very very good.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: I think that's a game that they felt like they
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: had a chance of pretty much winning that one. They
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: could have gone three and zero on the week, But
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: you know, it's a it's just the way it goes sometimes.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: Ferndale is a very very good team. I mean, just
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: the improvement over the last two three years has been
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: super steady, and it just keeps climbing, and they have
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: really great coaching and I really like what they got
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: going on there. Squalk them. They had a pretty good
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: week two. They did lose to Ferndale to start out
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: fifty three forty two. They and they played they hosted
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: Cedar Crest and kind of a weird non conference kind
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: of right in the middle of the year game. They
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: beat them forty six to twenty nine and then beat
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker sixty two to fifty one. Hunter Callaway had
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: an amazing week, especially in that last game. He scored
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: thirty two points. Just a sophomore, he has got incredible
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: moves at the basket, six foot three, he can drive.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: And then I watched I did this thing where I
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: kind of clipped all of his makes because he was like,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know, he was like fifteen for twenty one.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: I mean he was. He made a lot of shots
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: and I just watched them all back to back, boom
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: boom boom, boom boom, and I swear every time. I mean,
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: out of the fifteen makes, I think twelve of them
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: were in the paint, and they were all on drives,
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: and they were all he finished differently on all of them,
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: like it'd be a euro step, or it'd be a
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: it would be a jump and then jump back, or
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: it'd be I mean, were reverse laying or whatever it was.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: He just has a lot of moves down there, and
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: that was awesome to see because he's he's just getting
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: better and better every single time I see him. It
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: seems like So and and squalick them. They were at
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: one time I think there were one in five and
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: now they're six and six. So that really shows the
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: improvement they've been doing. And they've had I don't know,
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: they have like fifteen different guys suit up and play.
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: They've had a lot of different things with certain players
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: aren't playing anymore, some guys would get sick, or guys
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: would go do this or that, and it's just it's
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: been kind of a hodgepodge of a of a lineup.
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: But they have a core group that has played really
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: well and I think they're going to be really good
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: down the stretch. Seeom had a really tough week losing
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: losing the Nixack Valley fifty nine to fifty seven. They
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: had a potential game tying shot on the way that
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: didn't go in. And then the loss to Oak Harbor
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: sixty eight to fifty seven. That one was on the road.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: Nolan Wright playing in both those games, and he's been sick.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: You could definitely tell. You could see it on his face.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: He's not feeling great, but putting everything you can. Still
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: playing about twenty eight to twenty nine minutes per game
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: in those games. Just a warrior out there. But awesome
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: to see Cole Terrell back out there and playing. That's
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: been a huge boost, especially down low with those with
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: all those injuries they've had to Grady Evans and al
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: Miller and it's just it's been it's just been tough.
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, you already were short ended with Cole Terrell
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: coming into the season not playing. Now he's back Baine,
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: Mitchell sometimes plays sometimes. Dosney has some volleyball commitments, and
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: so you lose a lot of size down low. And
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: they get Andre Watson out there playing too, so you're
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: bringing in some really good athletes. Imagine that all of
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: a sudden, you get col Terrell and Andre Watson to
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: start playing for you kind of at the same time.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: That's nice to have that kind of athletic ability. But
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: they did lose those two close games. Blaine lost to
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker fifty nine to forty. They were in it
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: pretty well through the first three quarters. It was a
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: rough fourth for them. They were without Abdul Kanaji this week,
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: who is their big time low post threat. He's got
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: incredible moves, extreme extremely long arms and big, big time
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: length to get rebounds, block shots, do different things like that,
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: gets a lot of offensive footbacks and things. They were
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: without him this week with just a huge which is
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: just a huge blow because he is so talented. And
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: they were without Josiah Weeda too earlier in the week.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: He's their leading score and so you're missing both those
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: guys against Mount Baker, and that's gonna be tough. You
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: lose by nineteen on the road there. Then they lost
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: to Lyndon Christian, who was just a jugger not right now.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: Lyndon Christian scored thirty five points in the first quarter.
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: That is incredible to do, especially with eight minute quarters,
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: so you're talking four points a minute, four plus points
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: per minute. I mean, that's incredible. So that's Blaine just
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: kind of ran into them at the wrong time, and
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: Blaine falls at two and eight right now. But I
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: tell you what, Chas Cock is an amazing coach. Just
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: watching what he's doing with those kids and and how
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: he's coaching them on the floor constantly is just it's
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: really fun to sit and especially when you're close to
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: the floor and you can hear what he's telling them
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: and and just just moving them a little bit from
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: time to time and if this, then this, and do
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: this come out this way? No, you come here, And
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: it's just and they the way they respond and and
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: he's gonna get that program turned around the right way
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: pretty quickly.
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: Hey, have you ever seen Nolan Wright like inbound the
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: length of the court to Andre Watson? Just for fun?
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: I have not, you know, I haven't. I haven't been
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: to his own game since Watson joined the team, so
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: I have not seen that in person yet. But uh,
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: wouldn't that be something? Then you get Colterell out there
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: blocking for you too, Uh, that'd be that'd be pretty cool.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: You think, like a post route in basketball would be
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: like a I don't know, a backboard route or something
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: than like or a rim route.
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: I don't even know, but who knows. Let's see here,
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: how about Bellingham seven and five, Noksack Valley six and five,
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: and Mount Baker six and five.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Bellingham started the week by beating Oakarver seventy eight
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: to sixty one, just, you know, really good shooting in
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: that game, rebounds everything. Bellingham a pretty darn good team.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: And then they've ran into Linden and Linden just took
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: it to him once by thirty points, seventy six to
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: forty six. And that's what's interesting about Linden is you
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: know they're not You kind of think, well, they're not
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: the same Linden that they've been. They might not have
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: the firepower, they're not winning by huge margins, but boy,
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: it all clicked in that game against Bellingham I thought this,
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: I thought that'd be a much closer game, but Lynden
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: got him pretty good there. Noksac Valley had a fantastic week.
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: They had a week that they needed to be honest.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: They beat CEO in fifty nine to fifty seven, and
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: that was that was huge to get that. And then
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: they beat Burlington Edison fifty one to forty six. And
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: Burlington Edison is a very good team.
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: That was that was huge.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: That was I thought it might go the other way
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: and that one. But at Knoxac Valley it seems like
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: they kind of play up to their competition a little bit.
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: They almost beat Lakewood. They lost by one point at
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: Lakewood and Lakewood is a ranked team in the two
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: A level. So they have they have the guys. I mean,
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: this is kind of the year they started I want
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: to say, three maybe four freshmen three years ago and
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: those guys are seniors now. So it's this is the
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: time when Nuoxack Valley's gonna have. They're supposed to have
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: that big step. It's just a it's a The question
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: is perhaps the depth. You know, how many guys can
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: they rely upon on the bench right now? And and
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: you know, we'll just have to see. But beating Seahome
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: was huge. Beating Burlington Edison was even bigger. That was
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: a great week for Nuxack Valley.
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker beating Blaine at home was great for them,
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: you know they Yeah, Blaine was without a few key players,
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: but Mount Baker just did their thing and they spread
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: it out so well. Whether you're always going to have
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: three or four guys in double digits and and it
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: seems like no one's ever gonna have twenty, but you're
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: always gonna have a lot of different guys and that's
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: hard to defend.
• 59:16
  Speaker 2: Uh do to do well.
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: And they lost that game to Squalalkum. Uh. That was
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: on Saturday on the road there the doubleheader girls boys
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: double doubleheader, and they were up in that game, I
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: think going at the half, but Squalalkin came back and
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: won it. And then it was just the Hunter Callaway show.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, he just took over and it was really
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: hard to defend. Saw a lot of fun interactions with
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: him and kel Reardon, which is cool because I think
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: they've probably played together in the past. And you know,
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: AAU perhaps there are a couple of sophomores really good
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: at basketball and you could see them, you know, kind
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: of go at it a little bit and smiles on
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: their faces. And I love seeing that kind of that
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: friendly rivalry between a couple of stars that we're going
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: to see the next few years.
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: Uh, last batch of four here, let's talk Meridian nine
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: and three, Lynn Christian twelve and one, Lemmy Nation twelve
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: and one, and then Lyndon Undefeated at twelve airb O Tyler.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Meridian lost. They hosted Linny Christian lost seventy one
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: to fifty seven.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: I was at that game.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: I thought, you know, and they played they played him
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: pretty well. And I thought last year Meridian played Lyndon
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: Christian extremely well in the district playoffs. I thought they
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: had a chance in that one. They ended up losing
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: that one. I thought this one you just never know.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: But I thought the Links did a great job of
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: containing Talon Jenkins. Talon Jenkins really had to work hard
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: to get his shot off, and he did really, really
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: well and put up a lot of points. But it was, uh,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: you know, Meridian did a good job of slowing the
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: Links down, especially in the second quarter, and they were
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: able to force a lot of not great shots that
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: the Links would miss and I think they held Lyndon
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: Christian to like seven points in the second quarter, which
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: is just not like them at all. But Elsie came
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: out in the second half and played really really well
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: and ran away with that. I think Dawson Heintz hit
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: a couple threes from like, you know, twenty eight feet
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: out or something like that, and he scored twenty five
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: points in that one and just showed you know, and
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: he's just a sophomore. So just it's just kind of scary.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: I mean that that LC team is really really good,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: very different than last year's team as far as the
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: build up, like the build of it, like just the
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: the you know, the personnel and kind of instead of
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: going inside first, they're going outside, so it's a little
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: bit different there. Then Meridian turns around and beats Ana
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: Chortus on the road fifty seven to forty six. That's
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: a huge win. An Accordus is a very very good team.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: That showed me a lot of Jaeger Fife and Talon
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: Jenkins and James head all. They really played really well
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: in that one against a very good Seahawk team. Extremely impressive.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was that was fantastic, So Meridian looking
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: very very good right now. Lindy Christian, like we said,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: beating Meridians seventy one fifty seven, then taking it out
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: on Blaine ninety four to thirty five, scoring thirty five
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: points themselves in the first quarter alone. I think they
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: had five or six guys and double digits in that one.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: Elsie is just when they're on and they're really on,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: and they didn't even have Dawson Heintz in that game
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: against Blaine, and that's just I mean, it's crazy that
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: that team when they're hitting their shots, they just they
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: play so well together and they're just incredible to watch.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: Their only loss all year, I believe, was to Arlington
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: and they got Leyton Martin, who's I don't know where
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: he's going and playing, but he's a heck of a player,
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: and that was and they had the lead in that one,
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: and Arlington came back and won ninety two to ninety.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: So that's their only loss all year. Lennon Christian looking
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: great right now. Lemon Nation just had the one game
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: they did. There was one earlier in the week against
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: Cedar Park Christian of Lynnwood, but they put their JV
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: team out there against their against CPC of Lynnwood's varsity
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 1: and the JV still won I think by five points,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: so we're not counting that one. But but they did
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: beat Tahola seventy six to fifty five. Toby had another
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: big game twenty four points I think like twelve assists
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: and five steals or something like that. I mean, he's
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: just he's just when he's on, man, it is crazy.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: Is so fun to watch because he's so slippery getting
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: between guys for layups, and then he's just he's got
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: a great outside shot. But he's really he's really good
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: at distributing the ball and he plays so well with
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: his team lem Nation, I'm telling I mean, the first
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: time I saw them, I just said they're winning the
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: state title. I mean, I just I can't see. I
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: don't know about the rest of the one B teams
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: in the state. I just can't imagine there being one
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: like them. They are so good and they only suited
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: up seven players in this game. And that was a
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: good team that they played against Lyndon. You know, they
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: had a close one against Seger Woolie Steger Woolli is
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: very good. They've got a couple of guys that are
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: amazing players, and sometimes that's you know, you have a
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: two headed monster like that. Sometimes that's that's all a
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: team needs. But Linden, you know, Linden is just there.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: So there's so efficient and they do everything so well
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: and everything's quick, like the crisp passes and the cuts
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: and if you can. You know, you see an average
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: team and you could see that guy's wide open and
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: you passes perfect, but then the guy bobbled it. It's like, oh, well, okay,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: you still have possession. You weren't able to get the
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: shot that you wanted. Like Lynden, they don't do those
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: kinds of things. Like everything is very crisp and looks
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: professional and just very workman like. I mean, everything looks perfect.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: Everything looks crisp. Like I said, it's kind of like
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: watching like when you'd watch like you know, like Tumwater
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: play football. You know, it's it's like it looks like
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: a video game. You know, everything looks great. It's kind
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: of like watching the Seahome Boys play soccer. You know,
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was there's it's it's really incredible to
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: see Lyndon looked really good in that game and then
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: beating Belly m seventy six to forty six.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: Brian Hepner had another huge week this week. There was
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: a game I think he led them in every category,
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: you know, points, rebound, assist, steels.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: And blocks.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: So he's really he's really making his name for himself
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: in this conference. And him and him again and Dykstra
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: look an eye to eye for that, you know, league
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: MVP right now, I think, I mean, those two guys
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: are really doing some amazing things and they play each
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: other at the very end of the year, and I
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: could only imagine that whoever wins that game, that the
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: player will be the league MVP. Because it's it's it's
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: a it's crazy. I mean, there's some other really good
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: players right now that are doing some big time things,
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: you know, Kayden Houghton and Nolan Wright and and Joe
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: Harward and and Talon Jenkins and Jager Fife, but those
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: two guys are just the way they're doing it, they're
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 1: winning games. It's going to be incredible to see when
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: those two play each other.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: It's it's gonna be a lot of fun. That is
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: it for the weekly recap and look at the scoreboards here. Uh,
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: let's move on and talk about the stat leaders Tyler
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: and as again as always answer by Acceleration Driving School
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: in Linden. Give them a call. Three six zero seven
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: four six four five six seven. We're talking high school sports,
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: which means there's gotta be some parents listening that go,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: you know what, my kid needs to learn how to
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: drive because he's an idiot. I am Acceleration Driving School Lynden.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: Three six zero seven four six four five six seven.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: Even if your kids smart, they need to learn how
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: to drive. Yeah, as somebody who somehow yeah, I mean
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: as somebody who consistently drives in and out of school
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: parking lots while kids are driving. They all need to
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: learn how to drive. Tyler. Let's talk about the stats here,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: points per game, Tyler, who is it?
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Gann and Dykes show. I was just mentioned earlier
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: from Lenny Christian. He's down a little bit, but still
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: pretty good. Twenty three point eight points a game. That's
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: an incredible number. Like we said, if you're ever over twenty,
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: that's pretty impressive. He is at twenty three point eight
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: right now. Just a guy that can do it all offensively,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: rebounds per game, Yeah. Caden Veldman has grabbed the lead here.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: Now he was tied for a while, he went down
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: to second place, and now he's got the lead. The
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: sophomore from Lenny Christian at nine point five rebounds a game.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: And you know, we don't look at offensive and defense.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: I do have those stats, but man, he gets a
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: lot of offensive rebounds too. It's just one of those
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: guys that knows how to time it just right, get
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: those put backs and those easy buckets.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 2: Isn't it crazy how some guys can just like not
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: only the timing, but like they read the ball really
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: well and just like like sometimes I watched this one
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: kid and sometimes like as the ball's in the area,
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: you'll see him like randomly make a move and you're
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: just like, what the heck, And then all of a
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 2: sudden he's comes out with the ball and you're like,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: I got it, like know exactly what he's doing all along.
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: There's a couple of guys that are guards that do that.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: The Darius Gilstrap of Mount Baker, he had like eleven
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: offensive rebounds the other day.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 2: Whoa.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: And he's a guy that just knife's in there and
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 1: will grab it like he'll come out of nowhere and
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: time it just right and jump up and get it,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: and it's like, how does he do that all the time?
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: Dyson Edwards of lum Me Nation too. Those two guys.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: First of all, they're both extremely athletic and they can
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: really run and jump and do those kinds of things.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: But they like what you were talking about. They can
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: read things really well and they know their teammates and
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: they could see a shot and they know when to
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: come in and get it. And you're right those there's
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: certain guys that offensive rebounds is a certain skill that
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: certain people are just really really good at. It's a
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: lot of fun to see. Reggie Evans was great at that.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: With Evs he can do much else, but boy, ye
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: offensive rebound like you wouldn't believe, was he?
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: Uh? Iowa? Yes? College? How I know that one? I
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 2: have no idea like that is the dumbest thing that
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 2: I have in my brain. Wow, I got a lot
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: of dumb things in there, but that one is way
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 2: up there. Let's see here, how about us? Well, you
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: know what we need to say it. We got to
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: see us and Steals it's the same guy Tyler.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Jerome Toby of Lumon Nation, I think he upped
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: his number and assists. I mean he had that big
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: twelve assist game. Now at seven and a half assists
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: per game, which is just crazy. Usually the leader sits
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: it around six.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: But and he just knows.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: So he plays so well with his teammates and getting
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: them involved, and and and plus he's such a great
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: shooter that you know, he can get the defense to
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: kind of go his way and then he can find
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: guys open down low and and they finished for him.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: That's the other thing too, is you can find a guy,
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: but if he doesn't make it, you don't get that assist.
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: So he puts him in the right spot and then
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: steeles per game. Yeah, still still leading in that. There's
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: been a few different guys. Marcus Nixon's been up there.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: There's been a couple of guys that have kind of
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: jumped around with that, but Jerome Toby is still leading
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: that as well. Four point three steels per game.
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: And blocks per game. We've got another name we've already
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: talked about.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Cayden Veldman has now taking this over. There's been
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: a few different guys, Jack Stapleton, Baine Mitchell, but now
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: Cayden Veldman at two point two blocks per game, just
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: a sophomore too. And you know he played a little
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: bit last year, well I should say it a little bit.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: Actually he played a lot last year. He started a
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: little bit, i should say, but then came off the
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: bench and was the sixth man and was a great player.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: And he was kind of he was kind of skinny though.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: He was about six two, weighed like one hundred and
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: eighty pounds, and now this year he's like six '
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: four and weighs like two thirty. Like, it's completely different.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: He is.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: He's a different He is a different kind of body
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: out there. And if he ends up getting like six
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: six two forty, which I could see happening, then I
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: mean we've talked about some great things on the football
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: field but also on the basketball court. Really excited for
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: his future and and uh yeah, he's just you know,
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: the sky's the limit for a kid like that.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: Now, as far as field goal percentage goes, it's been
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: one guy at the top pretty much the whole year.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: But tell you what, Tyler, his numbers have plummeted.
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's dropped all the way down to seventy percent
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: now on the year, teams are really starting to trying
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: to figure him out. I think Brady Ackerman, the senior
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: center from Nukzach Valley. He's thirty five for fifty on
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: the season. Now, boy, there was at one point he
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: was like at ninety ninety one and a half percent.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: Early on he was something like like sixteen for seventeen.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: At one point. I remember, you know that game against Ferndale.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: I think he missed two or three and Talon Jenkins
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: came in. He goes as Ackerman missed yet one of
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: the first things he said to me, and I started laughing.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: I go, yes, he's missed a couple of shots. He's like,
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: all right, Uh, he did miss some time though with
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: some with some hamstring issues. But he's back now and
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: playing really well and uh and had big moments this
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: week in those two big winsh.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: Who leads in three point percentage? Yeah, Dawson, heintz.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: He hasn't shot He hasn't played a ton of games,
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: but he's but he's shot enough three pointers. He's thirteen
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: of twenty nine, so he's at forty four point eight percent.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: And some of these threes he's taken are like five
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 1: six feet behind the line too, so uh, these are
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: not like these are not the easiest ones to make,
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: but he's got a really quick release and he can
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: really jump, so uh he gets those shots off with ease.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: Last, but not least, here the free throw percentage Tyler.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Jonah Berlowski has been leading this most of the year,
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: but he missed. He missed a couple this week and
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: so that's all it takes. And then Brent Hepner doesn't
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: didn't miss any this week. So now Brent Heppner jumps
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: up and takes over the lead at eighty eight point
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: two percent. He's forty five of fifty one on the season.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: And I don't know how many how I mean, I
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: could look it up probably now that I have this
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 1: new format going with my stat stuff, I've been working
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: on the last seventy two hours or so. But I
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: don't know how many he's made in the row. Now
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 1: he's made a lot. It's got to be in the twenties, so,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: which is great to see because he's a guy that
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: can draw a lot of fouls too. And when you
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: have a guy, when you have your big guy who's
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: six foot six can hit foul shots, that's it. That's
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: just something you gotta love because you know that you're
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: gonna get you know, you're gonna be down there with
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: a lot of guys and you're gonna get your opportunities
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: and he makes them.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: That is it for stat Leaders again, brought to you
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 2: by Acceleration Driving School in Lindon. And that's it for
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: boys basketball, which is brought to you by most Seri
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 2: Construction Edline Dry and I guess Acceleration Driving School technically
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: so well. And that's it for pretty much all of
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 2: the sports because we are now on to the Players
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 2: of the Week, which is brought to you by Anytime Fitness.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 2: They're sponsoring two things right now, Tyler, two separate sports.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 2: They've got the football Top one hundred countdown and the
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 2: players of the week here for boys and girls basketball.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: So and this is Linden, Linden North and Ferndale locations. Tyler,
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 2: who is the girls basketball player of the week.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some there's some really good athletes this week
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: that did some good things. But I'm gonna go with
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 1: Alison Shoemate of Lyndon Christian, the power forward, the senior.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: She's just her her game is really just getting better
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: every single week, and this past week has been amazing.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: Putting up huge numbers points and rebounds, extremely efficient. I
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: think she's shot like eighty percent for the week, and
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: she's just she's just a handful down low. There's not
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of teams that have the kind of firepower
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: to go up against a player like her.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 2: She's about six feet tall.
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 1: She started last year on the on the you know,
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 1: at a power forward on the team that got third
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: and State, and she's you know, she's the main player
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: now down in the middle. Tappy de Young has graduated, uh,
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: and she does a lot. She she does a great,
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: great job, always with a smiler in her face, works
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 1: extremely hard. She had a great week. Alison Shoemate of
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: Lynn and Christian is your Anytime Fitness Girls Basketball Player
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: of the week.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 2: And who is the Anytime Fitness Boys Basketball Player of
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 2: the Week?
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Numbers wise, you could have gone a lot of
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: different ways. You know, Hunter Callaway had a great week.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: You know, Brent Hepner had another great week. Yeah, there's
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of different ways you could look on this.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: But I thought Kyden hugh Tink of Knoksack Valley really
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: deserved it this week, leading his team and scoring those
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: those two during those two wins, wins that you had
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: to have, wins that were close, uh, you know, winning
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: on the road against Seahome, whin at home against Burlington Edison,
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: and he's the catalyst of that offense. Four year starter
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: at point guard, and just really, you know, I always
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: feel like there's kind of a lot on him because
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: his grandpa, Rocky won the first ever basketball state title
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: at Nuksack Valley back in I think seventy four, and
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: then his dad, Jason won the second one ever in
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: two thousand and three, and those are the two and
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 1: both of those guys are on the bench. His dad's
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: the head coach, his grandpa's an assistant coach. So I
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: mean it's and you know, and they both it's just
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: a unique thing where I feel like, I hopefully he
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: doesn't feel like there's a lot of pressure on him.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: I think he likes the pressure. But every single year
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: he's gotten bigger, stronger, looks really really good. And this
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: year's he's putting a lot on himself to do a
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: lot of things. I mean, he gets his teammates involved,
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: but it seems like when the game gets to a
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: point where he needs to take over, he can do that.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: You know, really slick dribbler is really improved a shot,
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: He's lethal from the foul line. He's got a lot
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: of moves down low and and and he's you know,
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 1: he's he was so skinny earlier on in his career
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: and he's really filled out and and it's awesome to
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: see him playing the way he is. And right now
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: it's needed because you're getting to you're getting into it
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: now with these teams, and it's gonna be a big
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: game against Meridian on Monday that we'll talk about a
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: little bit. But he had a great week. Cayden Hugh Tink,
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 1: the senior from Nikxack Valley, is your Anytime Fitness Boys
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: Basketball Player.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: Of the Week. Again. Thank you to Anytime Fitness and Linden,
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 2: Linden North and Ferndale for their sponsorship of the girls
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: and boys basketball Player of the Week. We got to
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: finish it up here, Tyler with the intriguing games this week.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: So I'm looking over your list here. You've got a Monday,
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 2: you got a Thursday, you got a Friday, Lots and
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 2: lots of big time basketball games, and in a swimming
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 2: match or meat whatever you want to call it on Thursday,
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: I mean I don't know that I've seen this have
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: a swimming one yet here.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Monday night is gonna be huge. So you're talking.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: If you're listening to this, you're thinking it's night and
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: it's a double header out at Nuksack Valley. And I
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: love these double headers. They're fantastic. Five point forty the
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 1: boys games, first girls game second seven to fifteen Knuksack
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: Valley hosting Meridian. And what makes this so great is
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: you can kind of pencil in Lynn and Christian is
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: the one, you know, the top team and boys and
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: girls for the one A. But there's gonna be two
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: spots for state, you know, and I know we're not
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: even in the playoffs yet, but it's kind of a
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: pick them between.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: I think it's two four districts. I think the district
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: one has crossover in one A if I remember exactly
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: where they would have to go play whatever the conferences
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: that has kings, you know, yeah, right, I think I
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 2: think the one and the two move on and play
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 2: the one and the two from there got something like that,
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 2: or maybe it's the three in the four, whatever it is,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 2: but you're getting two teams moving out of the conference,
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 2: which right, you know, when you only got five teams
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 2: in the conference. Man, that's a oh boy, you can
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 2: have some fun with that.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and a win here for either team because it's
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 1: kind of a toss up between these two teams and
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: both boys and girls, so it's it's a really really
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: important game for both of them. I think the gym
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: is going to be just completely packed here, great great rivalry.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: I expect two amazing games and really hoping that I
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: can make it out to those because I think that
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I know, it's funny because Mikayla sent me
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 1: her whole schedule for January, like like a week ago.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: She's like, here's the games I'm going to go to.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: I'm like, great, I love that she she's so professional,
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 1: she's got it all boom, got it. And who knows,
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: maybe she's already called for these ones I have.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 2: I can't.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: I'd have to look them up really quickly. But but man,
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: that's going to be just such a great, great time.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's that is some big time basketball. And
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: I know it's not necessarily like the end all be all,
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: but it's a win there is huge. You know, it's
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: for for both the boys and girls, and it's just
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: that it's that extra step up and and h I
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: and I and there to me Thata like I said,
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: they're they're a pick them. I mean, I think if
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: I had to say, I would say the Knucksac Boys,
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, the Meridian Boys would probably be favored against Knoksak.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: And on the girls side, I A, it's really tough.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: I think maybe the Nusack girls are favorite. But it
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: is so close, and that's what's really cool. And if
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: eaton Bernardi's back, that's gonna help. That's gonna really help
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: Meridian boost. And if Meridian can hit their outside shots,
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: which that when they do, they are really good. They
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: have some great shooters, so they're gonna be hard to beat.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 1: That's gonna be a great one Thursday, Like you said,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: swimming Ferndale at Squalkum. That'll be at the Arnie Hannah
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: Aquatic Center in Bellingham. If you don't know where that is.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: That's like imagine hitting a six hundred foot bomb to
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 1: left center at Joe Mark Stadium. It'll land right on
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 1: the roof of that place. So uh And that's a
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: it's a great, great place. I love they have the
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: they have a water slide, that goes outside the building
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: and comes back in what. Yeah, it's so cool and
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: so it's a it's an awesome place. And Ferndale right
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: now is much improved going against Squalicum. Squalicum will be
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: favored in this one, but but Ferndale they've got some
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: big time, top end talent that can give Squalicum fits
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 1: in this one. I think it'll be a great, great meet.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: And then Friday, Bellingham at Ferndale boys basketball, I think
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: will be a very very good close game. Bellingham capable
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: of beating some you know, really good teams. They beat
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: Anna Chordis. I think they beat them by double digits.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: We're just saying a lot Ferndale. You know, Ferndale, I
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: want to say that. I think they lost an Acordas
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: earlier in the year. But Ferndale when they play at home,
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: they're really good. Like I said that win against Mount
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: against Mount Vernon, they beat Nuksack Valley at home. So
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: I think this one's going to be, you know, a
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: lot of running, a lot of gunning, a lot of scoring,
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: a lot of action. And I think that, uh, you know,
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: there are two really well rounded teams that just they
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: don't have any holes. You know, and and really good coaching,
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: and I think that that's gonna be a fantastic game
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: just to watch. If you don't have anything going on
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: Friday night and you want to see good basketball, it'd
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: be a lot of fun just to go and watch
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: that one.
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 2: Tyler, do you okay? Like I love the smells right,
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: like yeah, you know the smell of like water on
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: concrete or whatever. You know, the smell of fresh cut grass,
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: although I am allergic, but I love the smell of
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: it still for whatever reason. I love the smell of
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 2: like gasoline with the pump, you know what I mean, Like,
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it is, you know what smell
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: I absolutely just love and I'm getting a lot of
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 2: it this year. What's that The smell of a good
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 2: bag of popcorn at a high school gym? Yeah, that's true.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 2: You walk in the front door, right and it's like, oh, yeah,
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: we're back boys, Like here it is. And I don't
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: know if it's like a well seasoned bowl or whatever
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: we got going on a baffle, but man, doa we
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 2: got a good popcorn, let me tell you. And I
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: get them for free. But I walk over and I
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: get a bag every game I did because I know
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 2: I can because it's allowed. But boy, I don't know
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 2: if it's because I had one on Friday at a
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 2: different school and it was all right. But it's a
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 2: newer school. It's only about six years old. Seven years old.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 2: I don't know if they're they're they're you know, popcorn
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: popper is just not seasoned well enough yet or what.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 2: But because I think ours is pretty old, pretty much
• 1:22:30
