Speaker 1: This is Ferndal sophomore volleyball player Brooklyn Larabie, and you're
0:03
Speaker 1: listening to the Walkham Preps podcast with Tyler and Ryland.
0:05

0:18
Speaker 2: Wakam Preps podcast. This is episode of two ninety three
0:21
Speaker 2: of False Sports, a weekly wrap up. I'm Royland Spencer.
0:24
Speaker 2: Along with me, as always is Tyler Anderson of Wakham Preps. Tyler,
0:28
Speaker 2: how we.
0:28
Speaker 1: Doing doing great? Doing great?
0:31
Speaker 2: Uh?
0:31
Speaker 1: You sound like your voice is doing a heck of
0:33
Speaker 1: a lot better.
0:34
Speaker 2: You much better?
0:35
Speaker 1: About close to one hundred percent?
0:37
Speaker 2: I would say, ninety six point eight nice proximately where
0:41
Speaker 2: I'm at.
0:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, Yeah, you're getting there.
0:43
Speaker 2: You got it.
0:43
Speaker 1: That's that's an a. That's a strong a right there.
0:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, which I did not give very many of you.
0:49
Speaker 2: It happened occasionally and usually it was in the pe Uh, Tyler,
0:53
Speaker 2: we didn't give a thank you to Brooklyn that Larabie,
0:55
Speaker 2: Ferndale sophomore volleyball player. Was she a golfer? Two?
0:59
Speaker 1: No, you're thinking of her brother, Baylor Therapy, that's right,
1:02
Speaker 1: who's now playing at UCLA.
1:04
Speaker 2: So oh, yes, that's right. He was the one that
1:07
Speaker 2: didn't he win state is like a junior and then
1:09
Speaker 2: almost came back and wanted it as a senior.
1:11
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, he is phenomenal. And then he took like
1:14
Speaker 1: some like West Coast like like amateur in amateur. Yeah,
1:21
Speaker 1: it was like some huge thing that he won, and
1:23
Speaker 1: it was so like going into UCLA. I think he's
1:27
Speaker 1: really really highly regarded and so that's that's really cool.
1:30
Speaker 1: But Brooklyn Larrabee is every time I watch her play volleyball,
1:34
Speaker 1: I just shake my head on something that she does.
1:36
Speaker 1: I'm like, she she does something every time that I've
1:39
Speaker 1: never seen and she's just phenomenal and I can't believe
1:43
Speaker 1: she's just a sophomore. Yeah, but so we'll be talking
1:46
Speaker 1: about her for a long time.
1:48
Speaker 2: I feel like volleyball in the county has a very
1:53
Speaker 2: bright future if the young you know what I mean,
1:55
Speaker 2: like the freshman's sophomores, Like I don't want to say
1:59
Speaker 2: the fresh when the sophomores are better than the juniors
2:01
Speaker 2: and seniors. But it almost has a feel that way
2:03
Speaker 2: because maybe it's because you always mentioned just a freshman,
2:07
Speaker 2: just a sophomore or something, you know what I mean, But.
2:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, but it is Yeah, there is there
2:12
Speaker 1: is that coming in where it's you know, last year
2:15
Speaker 1: had a really strong freshman class, and so this year's
2:18
Speaker 1: sophomores are really good, and then it seemed like this
2:20
Speaker 1: year has a really strong freshman class. And because I
2:22
Speaker 1: haven't been covering it forever, maybe that's just always how
2:26
Speaker 1: it is, I don't know, you know, and it's it's
2:29
Speaker 1: it's tricky because I'll look at some JV rosters that
2:32
Speaker 1: I'll have juniors on them. I've seen some JV rosters
2:34
Speaker 1: that had seniors on them. So there really are taking
2:37
Speaker 1: you know, the best you know, ten kids, twelve kids
2:41
Speaker 1: or whatever and putting them on varsity. And and with
2:44
Speaker 1: all like the youth you know, sports and stuff like that,
2:47
Speaker 1: developing and year round and all that kind of stuff,
2:52
Speaker 1: you're getting some really good players that come up through
2:54
Speaker 1: junior highs. So by the time they're freshmen, they're ready
2:57
Speaker 1: and and honestly, I mean, girls mature fast than guys,
3:00
Speaker 1: so when they're freshmen, they could be ready for varsity sports. Yeah,
3:04
Speaker 1: you know where you don't see that a ton in
3:06
Speaker 1: football because they're just not physically ready for football.
3:09
Speaker 2: And it's a little different. Yeah, with the fact that you're, say,
3:12
Speaker 2: a fifteen year old trying to hit an eighteen year
3:14
Speaker 2: old as opposed to volleyball, you know, little a little
3:17
Speaker 2: different in terms of the impact on your body, is
3:20
Speaker 2: what I'm trying to say there. But yeah, I don't know.
3:22
Speaker 2: It's pretty cool to see so many young players, you know,
3:25
Speaker 2: making impact at the high school level. It's always fun,
3:29
Speaker 2: especially because I know you think of things the same
3:31
Speaker 2: way I do, where you're like, wow, I gotta watch
3:33
Speaker 2: this kid for three more years.
3:34
Speaker 1: Absolutely exactly. Yeah.
3:36
Speaker 2: Yeah. We also need to give a thank you to
3:37
Speaker 2: Kurt Mayberry Farm. Kurt Mayberry Farmer is a family farm

4:00
Speaker 2: what it says, So if people would like to get
4:02
Speaker 2: a hold of you, we got all kinds of sponsors
4:04
Speaker 2: on this specific episode of the podcast. How do they
4:07
Speaker 2: get a hold of you?
4:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, the best way is through social media. Just look
4:11
Speaker 1: up walking preps, send a message and we go from there.
4:14
Speaker 1: There's a lot of There's been a lot of them
4:17
Speaker 1: coming in and so I'm thinking it's a combination of
4:20
Speaker 1: other businesses seeing a lot of sponsors, and then plus
4:23
Speaker 1: these podcasts where we can explain, hey, this is how
4:25
Speaker 1: you do it, this is what you do. And so
4:27
Speaker 1: there's a few more that are in the hopper right
4:30

4:33
Speaker 1: sponsors and you know, finding a sponsor for the top
4:37
Speaker 1: fifty volleyball list or the top one hundred football countdown
4:40
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. And looking at the winter and
4:43
Speaker 1: there's lots of things going on. There's going to be
4:46
Speaker 1: you know, some fun things where we might give prizes
4:50
Speaker 1: out once a week or you know, different types of
4:53
Speaker 1: things like that. It could be like a pizza if
4:55
Speaker 1: there's a pizza sponsorship or whatever based on games I'm
4:59
Speaker 1: going to do. People can you know, participate And then
5:03
Speaker 1: just there's lots of things that are right now that
5:05
Speaker 1: are happening and I'm really excited about. I don't want
5:07
Speaker 1: to give away too much, but so yeah, the best
5:10
Speaker 1: way is to get get a hold of me through

Speaker 2: teams from Wakam County. Tyler on the girl's side in
6:08
Speaker 2: Meridian takes on the top spot. Now, Tyler, you told
6:13
Speaker 2: me that maybe some of the top names kind of
6:16
Speaker 2: weren't running in this race.
6:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, I mean there was a lot of runners there.
6:20
Speaker 1: I was there. It was cool to see just all
6:23
Speaker 1: the tents and flags and runners and parents. I mean,
6:26
Speaker 1: it was just a mass of people, really really cool.
6:30
Speaker 1: But yeah, there was you know that you you know,
6:33
Speaker 1: I was expecting to see certain runners that I didn't see,
6:35
Speaker 1: which is which is fine. And this isn't a conference meet,
6:38
Speaker 1: so it's just kind of a yearly invite thing that
6:41
Speaker 1: Bellingham put on. Really really cool deal and and a
6:46
Speaker 1: lot of runners from a lot of different.
6:47
Speaker 2: Schools who were some of the top names from Wakam County.
6:50
Speaker 1: Tyler, Yeah, on the girl's side, Logan and Ignacio from
6:54
Speaker 1: Meridian took first place. Not surprised when I saw the
6:58
Speaker 1: runners there. She's, you know, she's just one of the
7:00
Speaker 1: best in Walker County. Another underclassman. And Katie Manley from
7:05
Speaker 1: Ferndale who's finished really high in a lot of races
7:08
Speaker 1: this year, and she took third place. I also saw
7:12
Speaker 1: Adel Ashmore from Meridian, Ava Hanson, Mattie Swanson, all from
7:16
Speaker 1: Meridian and they took home the top the top spot
7:19
Speaker 1: on the girl's side.
7:20
Speaker 2: On the boy's side, Meridian also takes on the top spot.
7:24
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of good runners there. Reuben Taveldi Canyon,
7:27
Speaker 1: James Asher, Todd, Nolan Jacobe All finishing in the top seven,
7:30
Speaker 1: Nicholas Loose from Lynnon Christian with the number one spot.
7:34
Speaker 1: You know, I want to say, I think that he's
7:37
Speaker 1: probably won every race that he's participated in. Definitely one
7:41
Speaker 1: of the you know, one of the top runners in
7:43
Speaker 1: the county. But he's going to be eyeing that one
7:46
Speaker 1: a state title as well, which is pretty cool. Seahome
7:50
Speaker 1: as Rebubb, Jack Ribsick, and Owen Mumley. Elsie also had
7:54
Speaker 1: Colby Honkop and Cameron Scott from Mount Baker finished ninth place.
7:59
Speaker 2: Where are we at now as far as as far
8:03
Speaker 2: as cross country goes? Tyler, Like, I know that their
8:07
Speaker 2: state championship is still what a few weeks away? But
8:10
Speaker 2: is there more stuff going on? Or are we get
8:13
Speaker 2: like almost into it now?
8:15
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's still it's still going on. There's
8:18
Speaker 1: it's getting really really close to postseason. I'm kind of
8:22
Speaker 1: checking on it right now because it's got to be
8:25
Speaker 1: really really close.
8:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking at the state tournament. The State tournament
8:28
Speaker 2: is at sun Willow's Golf Course in Pasco. That is
8:31
Speaker 2: Friday and Saturday, November eighth and ninth.
8:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Wednesday will be the Northwest Conference Championship, okay,
8:40
Speaker 1: and that'll be at Civic Stadium. So it's be all
8:43
Speaker 1: you know, sixteen schools from the Northwest Conference, you know,
8:45
Speaker 1: one A to three A. Everybody's involved, and that you
8:49
Speaker 1: know at Civic Stadium. They do you know, the part
8:51
Speaker 1: of it is around the track and then they go
8:53
Speaker 1: behind the stands and then they go up the hill
8:55
Speaker 1: and they go them around. It's all over the place. Yeah,
8:58
Speaker 1: so it's pretty cool, you know, and and that and
9:02
Speaker 1: what's what's fun about cross country too, is that, like,
9:04
Speaker 1: you know, the weather's been kind of weird lately. Well, hey,
9:07
Speaker 1: if the weather is the weather man, cross country you
9:09
Speaker 1: deal with everything, yeah, and everything, so so that won't
9:13
Speaker 1: you know, that won't make it so it doesn't happen.
9:16
Speaker 1: It will definitely happen.
9:17
Speaker 2: And then I would assume only lightning could stop them.
9:20
Speaker 2: I mean right, yeah, right, there's like football, Yeah, rain, sleet,
9:23
Speaker 2: and snow. They're basically like the post postal service, except
9:26
Speaker 2: postal service goes through lightning too, right.
9:29
Speaker 1: And then on Saturday, it'll be the District one cross
9:31
Speaker 1: country meet, well just the five Yeah, the five schools
9:36
Speaker 1: will go out to the Deming log show Grounds where
9:38
Speaker 1: a little uh Tyler Anderson played a lot of uh
9:42
Speaker 1: Little league baseball out there. So those five schools will
9:45
Speaker 1: go out there and race in the district and district
9:47
Speaker 1: one cross country meet and then yeah, and then they'll
9:50
Speaker 1: just you know, post season will just continue from there.
9:52
Speaker 2: And for those of you keeping score at home, a
9:55
Speaker 2: little Tyler Anderson is not the current Tyler Anderson, right right.
10:00
Speaker 1: He is still the short Tyler, but he's.
10:02
Speaker 2: Not figured because you did say little league, but I
10:05
Speaker 2: didn't know. I didn't know if you had doctored your
10:08
Speaker 2: I am twelve, you know, a birth certificate? What was
10:12
Speaker 2: that was a bench warmers? Oh?
10:15
Speaker 1: Yes, I think I am twelve? Yeah, I am twelve.
10:18
Speaker 1: Yeah with the goatee.
10:20
Speaker 2: Yeah. The guy that was like thirty five years old
10:21
Speaker 2: and he had a fifth of Jack Daniels or something.
10:23
Speaker 2: I don't even know what it was. But getting off
10:28
Speaker 2: topic here on cross country Tyler, but maybe the first
10:31
Speaker 2: time we've ever done that. All right, that's cross country again.
10:34
Speaker 2: Thank you to stoff for Insurance for their continued support
10:36
Speaker 2: of Watchcomb. Perhaps let's talk about boys tennis and regular
10:41
Speaker 2: season is over see home undefeated, a conference champion, district
10:44
Speaker 2: tournament was supposed to start over the weekend Tyler, but
10:46
Speaker 2: it got rained out. So it sounds like that some
10:48
Speaker 2: of that's going to start taking place this week.
10:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, hopefully. I mean I'm looking outside right now. I mean,
10:53
Speaker 1: you know, people listening if they've all dealt with what
10:56
Speaker 1: Walken County's dealt with this over this weekend with a
10:59
Speaker 1: lot of wind rains, people losing power, stuff like that. Heck,
11:02
Speaker 1: when I'm writing my stories all week and I'm saving
11:04
Speaker 1: every once in a while just to make sure because
11:06
Speaker 1: the wind was picking up pretty heavily. So yeah, hopefully
11:10
Speaker 1: there'll be some some district tennis coming up. And then
11:13
Speaker 1: once that happens, then they close it down and they
11:17
Speaker 1: don't they don't go to state until May because of
11:19
Speaker 1: the weather and stuff like that. So yeah, a lot
11:23
Speaker 1: of really good individuals, a lot of really good teams.
11:27
Speaker 1: I believe. It's there's like it's like two or three
11:31
Speaker 1: go on and then there's an alternate. It could be
11:33
Speaker 1: two two individuals and then an alternate. Two doubles teams
11:36
Speaker 1: and then an alternate. It's either that or it's three
11:38
Speaker 1: in an alternate, three and an alternate. So yeah, and
11:43
Speaker 1: it's always tennis is one of those things where I
11:45
Speaker 1: know who the good people are, the good players are here,
11:48
Speaker 1: I just don't know how they compare against the rest
11:51
Speaker 1: of the the district, the rest of the region, the
11:54
Speaker 1: rest of the States.
11:55
Speaker 2: So a little different football, where I could give you
11:57
Speaker 2: an idea like Tom Water's real good in two A
11:59
Speaker 2: and some of these things. But you start talking about
12:02
Speaker 2: some of these other sports and we hear, you know, oh,
12:05
Speaker 2: this guy's the best tennis player. But outside of that,
12:08
Speaker 2: unless it's somebody who's like, you know, maybe a junior
12:11
Speaker 2: national champion, we've probably never heard of them before.
12:14
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, exactly. And so but when they play against
12:16
Speaker 1: each other, like when I see Jacob kun against Harley
12:18
Speaker 1: Kaiser and they're both undefeated going into that, Yeah, okay,
12:22
Speaker 1: well whoever wins that one's probably pretty darn good, and
12:24
Speaker 1: even even the other person's going to be pretty darn good.
12:27
Speaker 1: So you know, stuff like that, you can kind of
12:29
Speaker 1: get an idea of who's going to do pretty well,
12:31
Speaker 1: but you never you never really know. And you know,
12:35
Speaker 1: on the girls side, I mean, there was the doubles
12:37
Speaker 1: team from Bellingham won this when one state, so you
12:40
Speaker 1: start going, okay, well, maybe they are pretty darn good
12:42
Speaker 1: up here, and of course there's good coaches and stuff,
12:45
Speaker 1: so so yeah, we'll just have to wait and see.
12:47
Speaker 1: Hopefully the weather holds up and we'll be able to
12:49
Speaker 1: get some district tennis in this week.
12:51
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the weather forecast right now, and this
12:53
Speaker 2: is no Randy Small here, but Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday just
12:58
Speaker 2: says partly cloud and the percentage, you know, chance of
13:03
Speaker 2: rain is below twenty five percent all three days. That's
13:08
Speaker 2: that's their window right there. Yeah, that's their window because
13:10
Speaker 2: everything else is not good. Monday showers, Friday, Saturday, Sunday
13:14
Speaker 2: of neck, you know, it's all showers. Yeah. As a
13:17
Speaker 2: matter of fact, Tyler, like you might as well just
13:19
Speaker 2: put on your rain boots right now and not take
13:20
Speaker 2: them off until about Sunday the third. I mean, it's
13:24
Speaker 2: it's not looking good for you. Yeah, sounds good, although
13:27
Speaker 2: you seem like the type of guy that might just
13:28
Speaker 2: wear rain boots all the time. Like, Tyler, do you
13:30
Speaker 2: have like a pair of those like big yellow rain booths?
13:32
Speaker 1: You know, I don't. I don't. You'd think I would
13:34
Speaker 1: do it for a fashion statement, yes, or like.
13:36
Speaker 2: The Gorton's Fisherman like you know jacket.
13:40
Speaker 1: I did wear. I did go out. You know, we're
13:42
Speaker 1: going a little off top boy top topic, but I
13:44
Speaker 1: did go out to the football games on Friday night
13:47
Speaker 1: wearing my orange, my bright orange hoodie with lime like
13:53
Speaker 1: a neon yellowish green shorts with orange sweats underneath, with
13:59
Speaker 1: neon yellow green shoes. So it was kind of like
14:03
Speaker 1: an orange yellow orange yellow kind of going back and forth.
14:07
Speaker 2: And you look like a neon paint by numbers.
14:10
Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much so. But I'm just glad I didn't fall,
14:14
Speaker 1: because that's funny watching the film too, because you see
14:16
Speaker 1: all these muddy players. Everything everything just looks brown. Yeah,
14:19
Speaker 1: you know, the fields, the players, everything. The two games
14:22
Speaker 1: I went to were both on natural grass, beautiful. It
14:25
Speaker 1: was just a lot of mud and stuff. And then
14:27
Speaker 1: you see this bright shiny thing in the background, like, oh,
14:30
Speaker 1: that's that's me.
14:31
Speaker 2: Okay, that's interesting, dressed like a glowstick.
14:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, pretty much.
14:36
Speaker 2: I love it. We've been now been off topic on
14:39
Speaker 2: both cross country and boys tennis Tyler, so we're really
14:43

Speaker 1: their biggest win of the year. That was a that
15:32
Speaker 1: was a big one. That was really really good. Brooklyn
15:35
Speaker 1: Fuller scored scored a couple of goals, Sophie Brooks scored one,
15:40
Speaker 1: Katie Nolton scored one, all of them seniors, which is
15:44
Speaker 1: a really you know, good way. It might have even
15:48
Speaker 1: been senior night for all I know. Uh So that
15:51
Speaker 1: was that was a big one for Meridian. They jump
15:52
Speaker 1: up to three nine and one. Blaine, Nooksack, Mount Baker
15:56
Speaker 1: still still struggling, but they're all going to be in
15:59
Speaker 1: that one. Ed Dish tournament along with Lenny Christian, who's
16:01
Speaker 1: the heavy favorite. But man, you just never know when
16:04
Speaker 1: something like that could happen. I would assume they're going
16:07
Speaker 1: to play the tournament at Blaine because it's the one
16:11
Speaker 1: turf field out of the one A school, so and
16:14
Speaker 1: no other schools joined them in this, so it's just
16:16
Speaker 1: those five schools and and uh you know, Blaine is
16:20
Speaker 1: a team that they have a really good goalie, but
16:22
Speaker 1: she's had some injury issues which has caused for some losses.
16:26
Speaker 1: I mean, Blaine and Sealm were tide zero zero at
16:29
Speaker 1: half this week, which is like man, Sealm's fantastic, but
16:33
Speaker 1: then you know, Golie got injured and all of a
16:36
Speaker 1: sudden stealem won seven zero. So if Blaine's goalie can
16:40
Speaker 1: stay healthy. K nook Sacks goalie is really good too, Eisenheart,
16:43
Speaker 1: She's awesome. So it's like, if you get some hot
16:45
Speaker 1: goalie play here where they can just stop everything all
16:49
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're the team going to State. Because
16:52
Speaker 1: I have the only thing. I think they only get
16:53
Speaker 1: one out of this, so at least that's how it
16:57
Speaker 1: was on the boys side, and it's only five teams,
16:59
Speaker 1: so uh so we'll have to wait, wait, wait and see.
17:02
Speaker 1: But you know, Meridian is kind of trending up a
17:04
Speaker 1: little bit right now with that win. Blaine has the
17:07
Speaker 1: ability if they can put you know, full eighty minutes together, Uh,
17:12
Speaker 1: then they're they're they're gonna be a tough out as well.
17:16
Speaker 2: Let's talk Squalum, Linden, Christian and Ferndale.
17:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, squalkamb Linn and Christian played each other. I believe
17:23
Speaker 1: it was on Thursday. Squalkam got him four to one.
17:25
Speaker 1: Squalcam very very good team, very young team. You know.
17:29
Speaker 1: Siri Sirie Hogland freshman. Uh, she had a second hat
17:33
Speaker 1: trick of the year. That was against Linden. Christian Els
17:37
Speaker 1: has been on a hot streak. But they kind of
17:39
Speaker 1: just dropped that one. No, not really sure what happened there,
17:42
Speaker 1: but against a really good opponent and squalk them. But
17:45
Speaker 1: they got their tie against the home so they can
17:47
Speaker 1: play against those better teams. Ferndale had a rough one
17:51
Speaker 1: against Lyndon. You know, Lindon, you know, they kind of
17:54
Speaker 1: take care of everybody. But Ferndale struggled this week, dropping
17:58
Speaker 1: to below five hundred. Were unable to score a goal
18:01
Speaker 1: this week as well. But and Squalicum. You know, yeah,
18:05
Speaker 1: we were, we were talking about it earlier, about these young
18:07
Speaker 1: athletes and getting to watch them for three or three
18:09
Speaker 1: or four more years. The thing about Squalicum is they
18:14
Speaker 1: might not be able to push through those other top
18:16
Speaker 1: two eight teams right now, but man, when you start
18:19
Speaker 1: looking ahead, they are going to be the team to
18:21
Speaker 1: watch out for going into you know twenty five, twenty six,
18:24
Speaker 1: twenty seven.
18:25
Speaker 2: Three teams have kind of distanced themselves from the rest
18:29
Speaker 2: of the pack. That's Lyndon, Bellingham and the Seaholme Tyler.
18:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, Linden, you know, they had they played they played
18:37
Speaker 1: against Seahome this week and there was a three to
18:39
Speaker 1: three tie. So and it was you know, Linnen scored,
18:43
Speaker 1: Seal answered, Linden scored, Seahome answered, Linden scored, Seehome answered.
18:46
Speaker 1: So it was it was one of those where pretty even,
18:51
Speaker 1: which is great. A great job by Seahome to hold
18:54
Speaker 1: on to that. You know, that's the first time Lyndon
18:58
Speaker 1: didn't win. You know, it's their first tie. They haven't
19:00
Speaker 1: had a loss yet. But Linden is just so offensively, uh,
19:05
Speaker 1: they're just so dangerously They're they're so dangerous offensively that
19:09
Speaker 1: they're always going to be a tough out Bellingham again,
19:12
Speaker 1: and with another week without allowing a goal, they're just
19:15
Speaker 1: they're just going along and they're starting to play their
19:18
Speaker 1: best right now and see them is doing awesome as well. So,
19:21
Speaker 1: I mean those three schools going into that district tournament.
19:24
Speaker 1: I did hear from a parent of Bellingham that only
19:29
Speaker 1: two teams go to state from the district, the two way,
19:33
Speaker 1: and Archbishop is a really good team as well. So
19:36
Speaker 1: you throw those four in it along with Squalkum, who's
19:39
Speaker 1: going to be tough, and only two of those five
19:42
Speaker 1: are going to be going to state. But when you
19:43
Speaker 1: look at those three teams, the Lynden Bellingham se home
19:45
Speaker 1: and think only two of them get to go to state, man,
19:49
Speaker 1: somebody is there. There's gonna be some sort of overtime.
19:53
Speaker 1: There's gonna be something happening, because it's just really really
19:56
Speaker 1: between those schools three total, only two will go to state.
20:02
Speaker 1: Two of those three, yeah, well, because those three will
20:06
Speaker 1: all be in the district tournament.
20:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Archbishop is in it as well, right.
20:09
Speaker 1: And Archbishop will be in it as well.
20:11
Speaker 2: So you're saying, is that three get in?
20:14
Speaker 1: No, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Archbishop, So only two will
20:17
Speaker 1: get it go go to state, and it might not
20:19
Speaker 1: even be.
20:20
Speaker 2: Two of these. Okay, that's what I was saying, so right, Yeah,
20:23
Speaker 2: if Archbishop, you know, gets first or second, then one
20:26
Speaker 2: of then two of those teams are going to be
20:28
Speaker 2: left home exactly.
20:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yeah, maximum only two can go for
20:32
Speaker 1: Walking County. So uh, there's some really really good teams
20:35
Speaker 1: that we're gonna are going to be left at home.
20:37
Speaker 1: And and I think, you know, RPI wise, I think
20:41
Speaker 1: that all three of those schools, not counting Archbishop, but
20:44
Speaker 1: I would imagine Archbishop is included in this, are all
20:47
Speaker 1: in the top ten. So uh, that's just the way
20:51
Speaker 1: it goes sometimes. But you just got to play your best.
20:53
Speaker 1: And and I don't know where they're going to hold it.
20:56
Speaker 1: I know the I know sometimes they hold it down
21:01
Speaker 1: down in Evert a little bit, but sometimes they play
21:03
Speaker 1: some games at Civic Stadium as well. So I'll hopefully
21:06
Speaker 1: I'll be able to make it out to some of
21:07
Speaker 1: these postseason games.
21:08
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the district tournament bracket Tyler, Oh nice,
21:13
Speaker 2: and the first couple of rounds will be played. There's
21:18
Speaker 2: a couple of them where it's played at the higher seed.
21:20
Speaker 2: Civic Stadium is hosting a ton of games.
21:23
Speaker 1: Okay, great.
21:25
Speaker 2: Civic is hosting the semi finals, the finals, and the
21:32
Speaker 2: couple of the the consolation games, and it is in
21:37
Speaker 2: fact two moving on, So the championship game is winner
21:42
Speaker 2: to state, and then the loser of that game will
21:44
Speaker 2: play four days later at Civic Stadium against the winner
21:48
Speaker 2: of a couple of you know, consolation games.
21:50
Speaker 1: Right, so it looks just like the boys tournament. Then yeah,
21:53
Speaker 1: that's pretty that's pretty fresh in my mind. And and okay,
21:56
Speaker 1: that's gonna be it's gonna be crazy, it's gonna be awesome.
21:58
Speaker 2: And then the District one girl's RPI is updated as
22:04
Speaker 2: of October twentieth, whenever that is, that's today. Okay, So
22:08
Speaker 2: October twentieth at ten o eight, so literally eight minutes
22:11
Speaker 2: ago as we're recording, eight minutes ago, Lyndon, Bellingham, Seahome,
22:16
Speaker 2: Archbishop Murphy in that order. Yeah, one, two, three, four,
22:20
Speaker 2: says Archbishop Murphy, six three and one. Okay, Well, although
22:24
Speaker 2: how have they only played what would that be ten games?
22:28
Speaker 2: And Seahome is played thirteen and Bellingham's played thirteen like
22:33
Speaker 2: that is kind of interesting, but yeah. Yeah, as a
22:36
Speaker 2: matter of fact, their RPI is just a little slightly
22:39
Speaker 2: ahead of even Squalicum. Oh yeah, interesting NBW is what
22:48
Speaker 2: win and then win by opponent and actually Squalicum is
22:54
Speaker 2: even ahead of them in a couple of the metrics,
22:56
Speaker 2: so that's actually pretty interesting. And then Ferndale is also
23:02
Speaker 2: in the you know, the three A side of it,
23:05
Speaker 2: They are ninth in the RPI from that side of things.
23:08
Speaker 2: Just since we're on the topic. But yeah, so that
23:13
Speaker 2: is let's see, that is the standings. Let's talk goal leaders, Tyler,
23:19
Speaker 2: where I don't know that we're having a ton of
23:21
Speaker 2: changes at this point, but it does look as though
23:24
Speaker 2: we are finally down to a top ten. Actually, I was.
23:27
Speaker 1: Gonna mention that, yeah, we actually it actually is a
23:29
Speaker 1: top ten. There's not this giant tiebreaker that goes down
23:32
Speaker 1: to like eighteen or something like that, so we do
23:35
Speaker 1: have that. There's a little bit of movement here and there,
23:38
Speaker 1: but I mean, the top of leaderboard has been the
23:40
Speaker 1: same all year, but there are some names kind of
23:42
Speaker 1: moving around a little bit.
23:46
Speaker 2: Why don't you give me ten through six, Tyler?
23:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, so with seven goals we have Ela Moro and
23:54
Speaker 1: Beckett Ferry, both from Bellingham. They're tied for ninth place,
23:58
Speaker 1: and then and then hied for fifth places Kira Reeves
24:02
Speaker 1: and Kylie Ipsovik from Seahome. Also Andy Anderson from Lyndon
24:06
Speaker 1: Christian and Meg Clark from London.
24:09
Speaker 2: How about well, I guess I would give us the
24:11
Speaker 2: top four.
24:12
Speaker 1: Yeah. So Kayla Yune is the leader at Lyndon Christian
24:15
Speaker 1: with nine goals. Ivy Newells shot up to twelve goals
24:19
Speaker 1: now for Bellingham, the senior, sirih Hogland from Squalicum the
24:24
Speaker 1: freshman with thirteen goals, and then number one as it's
24:27
Speaker 1: been all year. Evelyn Saldivara's senior from Lyndon now with
24:31
Speaker 1: twenty goals. I believe she scored three this week.
24:34
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, it's just wild. It is twenty. I
24:37
Speaker 2: mean it's one thing to be a couple of goals
24:39
Speaker 2: up or something, but to be seven up is wild again.
24:45
Speaker 2: That is girl soccer. Thank you to North County Alliance
24:48
Speaker 2: FC for their continued support. Let's talk Girlsiman dive. Not
24:52
Speaker 2: a ton to talk about this week, Tyler. Just one
24:54
Speaker 2: new time and it is actually a state qualifying time.
24:58
Speaker 1: Yeah. Hayley Farrell from Blaine. You know, we talked about
25:01
Speaker 1: her winning a state title as a freshman, and she
25:05
Speaker 1: may have done it in multiple events even uh. And
25:08
Speaker 1: then this is in the long distance, the fifth five
25:10
Speaker 1: hundred freestyle five minutes thirty seconds thirty point eight seven seconds,
25:15
Speaker 1: which is a state qualifying time. Again a one A swimmer,
25:19
Speaker 1: She's going to be competing at two way in this
25:20
Speaker 1: at the state tournament. She also has a qualifying time
25:24
Speaker 1: in the two hundred individual medley at two minutes twenty
25:28
Speaker 1: point sixty five seconds. Bellingham as a team too, I
25:31
Speaker 1: want to mention that I don't think they've lost a
25:33
Speaker 1: conference meet. So that's the you know, when you're talking
25:37
Speaker 1: about team points, Bellingham has really put it all together.
25:40
Speaker 1: It's done really really well. There's been some so there's
25:43
Speaker 1: been some really close meets here and there. But what
25:46
Speaker 1: it seems like every time Bellingham swims, they're you know,
25:48
Speaker 1: they're like thirty forty at least points ahead the next team.
25:52
Speaker 2: Wow, Like that's yeah, yeah.
25:55
Speaker 1: There's They're just very very good. I think there's got
25:58
Speaker 1: a little bit of a streak going conference wise. I
26:00
Speaker 1: don't know the exact number, but I think it bleeds
26:02
Speaker 1: into the last few years and and you know, just
26:06
Speaker 1: a really strong program and and uh yeah, I just
26:10
Speaker 1: really really impressive. And when you have a lot of
26:12
Speaker 1: swimmers that really helps too, because then you can fill
26:15
Speaker 1: out the relay teams really well. And and they they're
26:18
Speaker 1: doing all this without like I don't think they've had
26:20
Speaker 1: any diving this year, and so you know, you can,
26:24
Speaker 1: you know, you lose points, but not haven't died. There
26:26
Speaker 1: hasn't haven't been a ton of divers, you know. See
26:27
Speaker 1: Holme's got a handful of them, but there hasn't been
26:31
Speaker 1: a lot of them throughout the county.
26:34
Speaker 2: And I do notice that she has a state qualifying
26:37
Speaker 2: time now in both the two hundred individual medley and
26:40
Speaker 2: the five hundred freestyle. But she does even have the
26:44
Speaker 2: fastest time in the fifty free, the one hundred backstroke
26:49
Speaker 2: and the one hundred breaststroke. Does she have is she
26:52
Speaker 2: like in any other Like I don't see her in
26:55
Speaker 2: anything else? Oh one hundred freestyle there? Yeah, yeah, I
26:59
Speaker 2: mean is wild. She's all of them. I mean, it's
27:03
Speaker 2: unbelievable really. And then you know Grace Sorenson, who I
27:07
Speaker 2: believe didn't she win a state championship last year?
27:10
Speaker 1: I don't know that for sure. I I'm trying. I'm
27:15
Speaker 1: trying to remember, but I mean, she's all over the
27:17
Speaker 1: place here with you know, the two hundred medley relay.
27:21
Speaker 1: She's got the top time for two hundred freestyle, two
27:23
Speaker 1: hundred individual medley UH state qualifying time in the last
27:26
Speaker 1: two there and again in the four hundred freestyle relay,
27:30
Speaker 1: one hundred butterfly. So she's all over the place. So
27:32
Speaker 1: there's a there's a few very high end, top top
27:35
Speaker 1: level swimmers.
27:36
Speaker 2: See if we can look it up here really quickly.
27:41
Speaker 1: No, because we didn't we didn't cover girls swim and
27:43
Speaker 1: dive last.
27:43
Speaker 2: Yearnson top time in the two hundred It says two
27:48
Speaker 2: hundred yard freestyle, which is interesting. I didn't think it
27:52
Speaker 2: was yards, but it says two hundred yard freestyle. It
27:55
Speaker 2: says Grace sorens in a time of one fifty four
27:58
Speaker 2: nine as a sophomore for Bellingham. Let's see if we
28:02
Speaker 2: can just bounce through any of the other ones. Smamish Bremerton, Bellingham,
28:09
Speaker 2: Gray Sorenson. One hundred yard butterfly top time?
28:15
Speaker 1: Is it under a minute?
28:18
Speaker 2: What did I say? It was one hundred free hunter
28:21
Speaker 2: fly butterfly It was fifty six seventy one. Holy cow,
28:26
Speaker 2: always excuse me, that was the prelimbs her finals fifty
28:29
Speaker 2: five ninety nine, even faster. Yeah, let's see hundred free.
28:35
Speaker 2: Who is e V S. I'm trying to what school
28:38
Speaker 2: would that be? Evergreen East Valley of Spokane.
28:42
Speaker 1: Maybe Yepalacepocanne probably.
28:45
Speaker 2: Let's see here. This person's name is Poppy Edge. That
28:49
Speaker 2: is awesome. Oh there's Haley Haley Ferrell. Yeah, she finished
28:56
Speaker 2: second in the five hundred yard free style. Yeah. Wow,
29:01
Speaker 2: that is a that's a long one, five hundred yards.
29:05
Speaker 2: That's the that's the long distance. Yeah. Let's see here
29:08
Speaker 2: North Kitsap as a team one hundred backstroke finals, there's
29:13
Speaker 2: a senior from Squalacum in third place. Let's see one
29:19
Speaker 2: hundred breast Nope, and no Smamish wins that one. So yeah,
29:26
Speaker 2: I mean a couple of them for Grace Sorenson last year. Yeah, like,
29:30
Speaker 2: and she's got a couple of good times here and
29:32
Speaker 2: even a state qualifying time in the two hundred individual medley.
29:37
Speaker 2: Actually they both do, yeah, so they'll be going against
29:40
Speaker 2: each other. And then yeah, a time in the two
29:42
Speaker 2: hundred freestyle as well. So she's right back in it,
29:45
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean lots of good stuff going on. Uh.
29:50
Speaker 2: Those two girls specifically though, are really dominating, doing a
29:53
Speaker 2: lot of great things. So we will keep an eye
29:55
Speaker 2: on that girl swim and dive as we go forward. Tyler,

31:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Bellingham took on Mount Baker that this week,
31:17
Speaker 1: so that that matchup was bound to happen, and I
31:20
Speaker 1: think that happened on Tuesday or something like that. Bellingham
31:24
Speaker 1: got Baker won the first set, Bellingham won the next three,
31:27
Speaker 1: so they got off the Schninde got their got their
31:29
Speaker 1: first win. Blaine had a they had really really tough
31:33
Speaker 1: opponents this week. I want to I think they played
31:35
Speaker 1: Burlington and Sea Home. I mean, that's just that's just
31:38
Speaker 1: really really tough to get through that, but you know
31:42
Speaker 1: they did and and uh but that you know, that's
31:47
Speaker 1: just as I'm sorry they played Ana Chordis and see
31:49
Speaker 1: Home and the thing that I love about volleyball is
31:52
Speaker 1: that every single night there's there's games. Yeah, you know
31:57
Speaker 1: what I mean, it's not set up for certain things.
31:59
Speaker 1: So it's like, I know, I'm going to a volleyball
32:00
Speaker 1: match every single night, and it's really hard to look up.
32:04
Speaker 1: Kind of I want to try to see everybody as
32:06
Speaker 1: many times as I can, like every single team. Yeah,
32:08
Speaker 1: and so I'm like, look, and I'm trying to stay
32:10
Speaker 1: in the county and if it's walking kind of versus
32:12
Speaker 1: swalkm County, that's the best way to go too. So
32:15
Speaker 1: I'm kind of like looking through all that and it's like, oh,
32:17
Speaker 1: I can go here, then I'll go there, they'll go here,
32:19
Speaker 1: they'll go there, and it's just man, it's seeing it
32:22
Speaker 1: every night is awesome. But yeah, Bellingham, I wanted to
32:25
Speaker 1: go to that one so bad. But there was a
32:27
Speaker 1: huge match that that same night that we'll talk about
32:29
Speaker 1: a little bit.
32:30
Speaker 2: Let's talk Meridian Lynn and Christian Nuksack Valley and Squalicum Tyler.
32:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, Squalkum had a rough week as well. I think
32:39
Speaker 1: they dropped drop one to Lakewood and then after that
32:44
Speaker 1: I think maybe maybe they were the one. Oh no,
32:46
Speaker 1: then they lost a Linnen Christian, so they had a
32:50
Speaker 1: little bit of a rough one. Nuksack Valley did pretty well.
32:53
Speaker 1: Lennon Christian played played well. They think they lost to Ferndale,
32:56
Speaker 1: but then they beat Squalicum. Meridian had a great week,
33:01
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of four set matches they're went
33:04
Speaker 1: against Oak Harbor that they won, one against Lakewood that
33:06
Speaker 1: they won. Meridian is kind of that team on the
33:10
Speaker 1: rise right now as far as uh putting it together
33:14
Speaker 1: going into the going going into the postseason. And it's
33:20
Speaker 1: crazy because with Meridian and Lenny Christian, Nuksak, they're all
33:22
Speaker 1: very even, and they've all beaten each other, I believe,
33:26
Speaker 1: except for I don't. I can't remember it. See now,
33:28
Speaker 1: I can't remember if Nna Christian's played Nuksack Valley. I
33:30
Speaker 1: think they have, but I believe they've all beaten each other.
33:33
Speaker 1: So it's really hard to say who's got the advantage
33:35
Speaker 1: over whom they I believe Meridian will be hosting the
33:39
Speaker 1: district tournament, so maybe that gives them a little bit
33:41
Speaker 1: of an edge. But Meridian is that team that they
33:44
Speaker 1: finished fourth in state last year, and they had They're
33:49
Speaker 1: bringing every single person back except for their big time
33:52
Speaker 1: outside hitter that led the league in kills per set,
33:55
Speaker 1: and all but all of a sudden they bring in
33:57
Speaker 1: a freshman who's doing that exact same thing. So it's
34:00
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, man, it's the same team. And
34:02
Speaker 1: so they started off kind of there. There was they
34:05
Speaker 1: were struggling a little bit early on, but they're really
34:07
Speaker 1: starting to kick it into gear right now and playing
34:10
Speaker 1: I think the way that a lot of us expect
34:12
Speaker 1: them to lynnon. Christian's just got a lot of different
34:15
Speaker 1: weapons all over the place where there's not like that
34:18
Speaker 1: main person that's you know, racking up all the all
34:20
Speaker 1: the stats. They just have and it's a lot of
34:23
Speaker 1: their strength is right there right there at the net,
34:25
Speaker 1: a lot of blocks, a lot of a lot of kills.
34:29
Speaker 1: Knooksack Valley is extremely strong. They have two big time
34:33
Speaker 1: offensive weapons up front with Elizabeth Delang and Grace d'hog
34:39
Speaker 1: just you know, just super athletics, you know, six two
34:42
Speaker 1: six ' one, uh, just you know, tons of kills
34:47
Speaker 1: and UH and Peyton Bartle sets them up extremely well,
34:50
Speaker 1: and that's kind of how they run where they're gonna
34:52
Speaker 1: go on the offensive attack and UH and Squalkam squal
34:56
Speaker 1: COM's a very young team, only one senior. I've been
34:59
Speaker 1: seeing some different rotations. Still trying to kind of find
35:03
Speaker 1: things there on the two A level, and we'll see
35:05
Speaker 1: how they do in the district tournament.
35:07
Speaker 2: So, Tyler, if I said to you, what school has
35:10
Speaker 2: a north and south gym, what would you say?
35:14
Speaker 1: I'd say Meridian does.
35:15
Speaker 2: Okay, well, that appears to be where the one A
35:18
Speaker 2: volleyball tournament is going to be held. On November second,
35:22
Speaker 2: there's a game in the south gym and then if
35:25
Speaker 2: whoever wins that one moves on to a game in
35:27
Speaker 2: the north gym.
35:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably where it's going to be. They've held
35:30
Speaker 1: a lot of tournaments. They did a big scrimmage there
35:33
Speaker 1: where they had games going to both gyms, and so, yeah,
35:36
Speaker 1: that make that makes sense. What's the dates for those?
35:39
Speaker 2: That is November second for those there, So there's three
35:43
Speaker 2: games on November second, there's like a pigtail game, right,
35:46
Speaker 2: and then one, two, three, and four we'll play each
35:50
Speaker 2: other in the semi finals on the second and then
35:53
Speaker 2: November fifth and November seventh are the other games that'll Okay,
35:58
Speaker 2: there's two teams moving on as what it is, Yeah,
36:01
Speaker 2: two teams will move on to the District one two
36:03
Speaker 2: tournament and then the two a volleyball tournament. The playing rounds,
36:09
Speaker 2: if you will, those are going to be played at
36:12
Speaker 2: the higher seed and then Meridian takes over on the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh,
36:17
Speaker 2: and ninth is what it'll be.
36:19
Speaker 1: There'll be a Meridian at the two A.
36:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, two A is going to be at Meridian, it says, wow.
36:24
Speaker 2: And the district or the yeah, the District one two
36:30
Speaker 2: A volleyball championship will be November sixth at Meridian six pm.
36:37
Speaker 2: And then the loser of that one will head down
36:40
Speaker 2: into a winner to state game. That will so two
36:46
Speaker 2: teams are going to move on out of the district,
36:48
Speaker 2: is what I'm trying to say. Yeah, right, and that'll
36:51
Speaker 2: be on November ninth at Meridians.
36:53
Speaker 1: So and I've already booked my booked my stay at Yakama.
36:57
Speaker 1: I'm going to go to state for sure for volleyball
36:59
Speaker 1: again this year. And I so because I'm always guaranteed
37:03
Speaker 1: too one A teams from walking cash for two A.
37:08
Speaker 1: You know, Burlington's the big time favorite there.
37:10
Speaker 2: But actually, Tyler, are you sure of that?
37:13
Speaker 1: Say that again?
37:14
Speaker 2: Are you sure of that? The to the two to
37:16
Speaker 2: one A teams because it was that's the way it's
37:19
Speaker 2: been well, this is what it says. It says here
37:22
Speaker 2: on So if I'm looking at the championship game for
37:26
Speaker 2: the one A district, it's November fifth, seven pm in
37:29
Speaker 2: the North Gym. And then and what it says is
37:33
Speaker 2: winner to D one slash two crossover.
37:37
Speaker 1: Oh, so they're doing a crossover this year.
37:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I would assume there's like a regional round
37:42
Speaker 2: or something, if you will. Yeah, because it says here
37:47
Speaker 2: onto D one two crossover winner of the first place
37:50
Speaker 2: game and the second place team, which is the So
37:54
Speaker 2: whoever loses the semi final games on November two, they
37:58
Speaker 2: will go play each other on November fifth at five pm.
38:02
Speaker 2: The winner of that moves into the Constellation Championship, if
38:05
Speaker 2: you will, and that is on November seventh, and the
38:09
Speaker 2: winner of that one will go into the crossover as well.
38:11
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, I'm not exactly sure how that's
38:15
Speaker 2: gonna work out, but it sounds as though there's a
38:17
Speaker 2: whole nother round, you.
38:19
Speaker 1: Know, I got fait to my walk them county teams.
38:21
Speaker 2: Then, as a matter of fact, here we go, Tyler,
38:23
Speaker 2: I just found it, and this is okay. So there's
38:27
Speaker 2: two crossovers. There's only two games total, D one number
38:32
Speaker 2: two against D two number four and D one number
38:36
Speaker 2: one against D two number five. So what it is
38:38
Speaker 2: is District two, one, two and three are automatically going
38:42
Speaker 2: right and then District to number four number five have
38:45
Speaker 2: a chance to steal the two berths. So it's very
38:47
Speaker 2: similar to what we've always talked about with football. Ye now,
38:51
Speaker 2: why it is the teams in Wakham County can't get
38:54
Speaker 2: this to happen in football to where then they can
38:57
Speaker 2: go steal bursts from the other league. I don't know, right,
39:00
Speaker 2: you know, And this is where it's it's honestly kind
39:02
Speaker 2: tyler you I think you can hear me getting a
39:04
Speaker 2: little mad over here. This is where it's ridiculous, you
39:07
Speaker 2: know what I mean. It's ridiculous that there isn't more
39:10
Speaker 2: of an opportunity for the teams out of the District
39:13
Speaker 2: one in Walkham County or excuse me, the one A
39:16
Speaker 2: in Walkham County to move on. It's and it's been
39:19
Speaker 2: ridiculous over the years where you know as well as
39:21
Speaker 2: I do. A couple of years ago there's a Lenon
39:23
Speaker 2: Christian team that lost out that could have probably made
39:26
Speaker 2: some you know, done some damage. Yep, and they didn't
39:29
Speaker 2: even get that opportunity because the District two wouldn't even
39:32
Speaker 2: cross over with them, or excuse me, the other teams
39:34
Speaker 2: in District one if I remember, right, wasn't it the
39:38
Speaker 2: Kings and Granted Falls in those schools, right? Yeah?
39:41
Speaker 1: I guess they're there District one?
39:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. But anyway, now that
39:51
Speaker 2: being said, Tyler, we also do have to mention Ferndale
39:55
Speaker 2: and their district tournament is at Stanwood. Once get into
40:00
Speaker 2: the championship round, everything before that is the home site
40:03
Speaker 2: of the top seeds, right, So I don't know where
40:06
Speaker 2: they're going to slot in in that. Let's see if
40:09
Speaker 2: we can just look up maybe standings really quickly or
40:11
Speaker 2: would it be RPI. I guess it would be RPI, right, yeah,
40:14
Speaker 2: I think it have to be. Yeah, we talked about
40:16
Speaker 2: Ferndale is fourth in the RPI. There Stanwood, Edmonds wood Way, Snowhomish.
40:21
Speaker 2: Ferndale is where they're at. So if they can get
40:24
Speaker 2: a A if they can get one of those top seeds,
40:26
Speaker 2: they would get a home game on November twelve is
40:30
Speaker 2: where they would they would get a home game for
40:32
Speaker 2: their for their.
40:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. There then the three A. There's this kind
40:35
Speaker 1: of a week later than everything. Yes, like the one
40:38
Speaker 1: A and two A they go they go to State.
40:39
Speaker 1: Like while I'm at State, Ferndale is still playing. Yes,
40:42
Speaker 1: they get try to get into State. I remember that
40:44
Speaker 1: always happens.
40:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, let's see here. Do we still need to
40:48
Speaker 2: talk about Linden and Cehome Ferndale? Yes, okay, let's talk
40:51
Speaker 2: about them.
40:52
Speaker 1: Yeah. So those are you know, kind of the cream
40:54
Speaker 1: of it there. See them and Linden played each other,
40:57
Speaker 1: which was a huge one. We talked about it last
40:59
Speaker 1: week that I was definitely gonna be there on Tuesday.
41:02
Speaker 1: Went out there, Seem took the first set and Linden
41:05
Speaker 1: won the next three. There was there was a really
41:08
Speaker 1: close one, especially in that third set when both teams
41:11
Speaker 1: were up one to one, and that third one is
41:13
Speaker 1: so important, and it went into extra, you know, went
41:15
Speaker 1: into extras there where they had to win by two,
41:17
Speaker 1: and holy cow, it was really intense and really really
41:21
Speaker 1: good volleyball. I mean, you know, I took I took
41:24
Speaker 1: jokingsensus out there. We were watching and I was like,
41:26
Speaker 1: you're this is the one you're gonna want to go to.
41:28
Speaker 1: This is the two best volleyball teams in the county
41:30
Speaker 1: playing each other, and it was phenomenal. And then Linden
41:34
Speaker 1: a couple of days later they go out to Ferndale
41:36
Speaker 1: and play and Ferndale took a set from them too.
41:38
Speaker 1: So Linden played a couple a couple games here, a
41:41
Speaker 1: couple of matches where they played four sets, which they
41:44
Speaker 1: hadn't really done this year. It's always been, you know,
41:47
Speaker 1: three nothing wins. Or Burlington got them three zero. But
41:52
Speaker 1: they had to play a little extra volleyball this week
41:54
Speaker 1: against both Ferndale and Seahome. They got they got the
41:57
Speaker 1: best of them both, but it was a little tougher
42:00
Speaker 1: then than usual. Ferndale also picking up the win against
42:03
Speaker 1: lynnon Christian Ceo and picked up a win against Blaine
42:06
Speaker 1: as well. And yeah, it's gonna be be. It's gonna
42:11
Speaker 1: be crazy in that two a because I believe only
42:13
Speaker 1: two teams go to State from there, and Burlington you
42:17
Speaker 1: know they're gonna be They're almost a lock to be
42:20
Speaker 1: one of them. So then you start looking at Linden
42:23
Speaker 1: or Sea Home and those other two way schools, and
42:27
Speaker 1: a chordus is very good, you know, So it's gonna
42:30
Speaker 1: be it's gonna be really tough to see who's going
42:33
Speaker 1: to be that other team from UH to represent two
42:36
Speaker 1: A and hopefully another team that I'll be able to
42:39
Speaker 1: follow when I'm down at the state tournament.
42:41
Speaker 2: Now, Tyler, tell me this. When you say you take
42:44
Speaker 2: Joe Consensus out to volleyball, Yeah, if there's say a
42:48
Speaker 2: great point, right, a really nice you know rally right, Yeah,
42:52
Speaker 2: at the end, you go, wow, that was a great rally,
42:56
Speaker 2: does he just go yep? I agree? I agree, yeah,
43:00
Speaker 2: Like does he does he does he live the life
43:01
Speaker 2: or does he have his own opinions in real life?
43:03
Speaker 3: When he's around you, he has his own opinions as first,
43:07
Speaker 3: I just but I just wanted to, you know, I
43:10
Speaker 3: just wanted to get him out there and and check
43:12
Speaker 3: this out because he's away askeding questions about you know who,

43:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Steve mcgillickuty.
43:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right, Tyler, let's talk leaderboard here as
43:52
Speaker 2: far as stats go, and that is now sponsored by
43:55
Speaker 2: APEX Northwest of Volleyball Club. They are a not for
43:59
Speaker 2: profit girls and boys volleyball club in Wakome County that
44:02
Speaker 2: utilizes competitive volleyball to develop stronger athletes, nurture well rounded individuals,
44:07
Speaker 2: and provide resources to pursue volleyball at the next level.
44:11
Speaker 2: Visit them online at APEX ap e X NW Volleyball
44:15
Speaker 2: Club dot org. Tyler, I am seeing a lot of
44:20
Speaker 2: Meridian girls on this list. Now we will start with
44:23
Speaker 2: kills per set.
44:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, still held by Melanie Short, the freshman she took.
44:29
Speaker 1: She kind of grabbed this lead, I don't know, three
44:31
Speaker 1: four weeks ago and she's just held onto it. But
44:34
Speaker 1: it's really really close. You know. There's there's the two
44:37
Speaker 1: players from Lynden, two players from Nuxack Valley that round
44:40
Speaker 1: out the top five, Grace de Hoague and Elizabeth Delang
44:43
Speaker 1: from Nuksack Valley and then Ryan Stephen and finleypart Are
44:46
Speaker 1: from Lyndon. They're getting they're getting closer, but right now
44:48
Speaker 1: Melanie Short still holding that lead. Three point eight nine
44:51
Speaker 1: kills percent, how.
44:53
Speaker 2: About assists percent?
44:55
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is one where for most of the year
44:57
Speaker 1: Ella Fritz was leading the setter from Lynn and Christian.
45:01
Speaker 1: It was taken over last week by Izzy Stephen's freshman
45:04
Speaker 1: from Lyndon, and then and now this week, Uh, just
45:08
Speaker 1: barely got ahead of everybody was Grace Wells, the senior
45:11
Speaker 1: from Meridians. She had a big, big week. I think
45:14
Speaker 1: there was I think I want to say it was
45:16
Speaker 1: against Lakewood. She had fifty one assists and that was
45:19
Speaker 1: over four sets, so you're talking, you know, over over
45:22
Speaker 1: ten a set. There she's an eight eight point six
45:24
Speaker 1: one right now. And she even took a break in
45:27
Speaker 1: the fourth set. And uh, and let the youngster come in,
45:31
Speaker 1: Sam Sam Caseta, who's going to take over probably is
45:34
Speaker 1: the setter next year. And uh, but that's rare. Like
45:38
Speaker 1: Grace Walls does not take many breaks. Like she's she's
45:41
Speaker 1: out there constantly, she's a good server. You know, you
45:45
Speaker 1: want your you want your setter to be in there
45:47
Speaker 1: all the time obviously, and uh, but you know, they
45:50
Speaker 1: had a pretty decent lead on Lakewood. They were she
45:53
Speaker 1: was able to sit down for a little bit and
45:55
Speaker 1: and lake was sort of coming back when that happened,
45:57
Speaker 1: but they were able to finish it off in the
45:59
Speaker 1: fourth set.
46:00
Speaker 2: How about aces per Well.
46:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, this one's been jumping around a lot of different
46:05
Speaker 1: people have led on this one, but right now it's
46:08
Speaker 1: the sophomore Eden Bernardi from Meridian just super duper athletic.
46:12
Speaker 1: I mean when she when she comes and serves that ball,
46:16
Speaker 1: it's she's got to look at the determination on her
46:20
Speaker 1: face and then the way she can kind of like
46:23
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't even know how you say it,
46:24
Speaker 1: like jack knife her body so quickly. For that, for that,
46:28
Speaker 1: for that serve is just you know, it's a different
46:30
Speaker 1: kind of athlete that you're watching. You see it on
46:33
Speaker 1: the basketball court where she can start to take charge
46:35
Speaker 1: and she just has a really strong will in her
46:37
Speaker 1: to to play extremely hard. And so yeah, she's she's
46:41
Speaker 1: taken that lead in aces perset. She can get on
46:43
Speaker 1: a roll and where the other team just they just
46:46
Speaker 1: can't do anything. I want to say. She led last
46:48
Speaker 1: year too, as a freshman. When the year was over,
46:51
Speaker 1: she had the she had the most aces percent and
46:53
Speaker 1: she might have been over one. Right now, she's at
46:55
Speaker 1: zero point eight.
46:56
Speaker 2: Nine dig Persett Tyler my favorite player in the county.
47:00
Speaker 1: That's right. It's it's her older sister, Rylan Bernardi, the senior.
47:06
Speaker 1: She's man, she's just the competitive nature there too is unreal,
47:13
Speaker 1: you know, diving after everything. I think she was like
47:16
Speaker 1: at in fifth place last week. I mean, she she
47:19
Speaker 1: shot up the board this week unbelievable week. Numbers were
47:23
Speaker 1: incredible and one of the most unbelievable. I mean I
47:28
Speaker 1: had to ask if it was a school record. She
47:31
Speaker 1: had forty one digs in four sets on Tuesday and
47:36
Speaker 1: or I might have been Monday and it was the
47:38
Speaker 1: first game of the week and it was against I'm
47:42
Speaker 1: trying to remember who was against now, but I was like,
47:45
Speaker 1: is it supposed to be fourteen? Is it really forty one? Like?
47:49
Speaker 1: And I've messaged the coach and she's just like, they
47:52
Speaker 1: just kept hitting it. She just kept hitting it to her.
47:54
Speaker 1: She was all over the place. She was outstanding. And
47:56
Speaker 1: then I think she had like twenty nine in four
47:59
Speaker 1: sets in the in the the game against Lakewood, so
48:04
Speaker 1: she really separated herself. And it's a very narrow lead again.
48:08
Speaker 1: But now you've got another Meridian player, a fourth different
48:11
Speaker 1: one here in rythan Bernardi, leading in digs per set
48:14
Speaker 1: now at four point one six, leaving Laurel Tyler. Let's
48:18
Speaker 1: find out about blocks per set. Yeah, Leah lock would
48:22
Speaker 1: have seen home. She's been holding onto that lead for
48:24
Speaker 1: a little while now, and and it was a it
48:28
Speaker 1: was a tough one against Lindon. I think she only
48:30
Speaker 1: had like half a block in over four sets, and
48:32
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, she's going to lose that lead.
48:34
Speaker 1: But then she then she did her thing against Blaine
48:37
Speaker 1: and it shot right back up as she was right
48:39
Speaker 1: at around one block percent in that one. So she
48:43
Speaker 1: still holds it zero point seven to six. I know
48:46
Speaker 1: Mary Lockhart had her big time week out of Bellingham
48:49
Speaker 1: and she she shot up the leader board as well.
48:51
Speaker 1: She's right there knocking on the door. I think she's
48:53
Speaker 1: like ato point seven, four seven five, So really really
48:56
Speaker 1: close here to Lea Leah Lockwood. You're starting to see
49:01
Speaker 1: some of these block leaders kind of move move around,
49:04
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of these other ones. You see this,
49:05
Speaker 1: you see the same five, and you just kind of
49:08
Speaker 1: mix and match. The aces are all over the place.
49:11
Speaker 1: You just never know. But the blocks are starting to
49:16
Speaker 1: separate a little bit and you're starting to see some
49:18
Speaker 1: new names and and uh so it's a lot of
49:20
Speaker 1: fun watching a block is is awesome. I mean, it's
49:24
Speaker 1: just like boo boom, and it just that instant gratification
49:28
Speaker 1: and this celebration is just the timing and the height
49:31
Speaker 1: that you're having to jump and all that stuff is fascinating.
49:35
Speaker 1: And Leah Lockwood, it's not like she's six ' three,
49:37
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I mean she's probably five ten,
49:41
Speaker 1: maybe five to eleven, And boy, she gets the job
49:45
Speaker 1: done and and she's she's got great hops and and
49:48
Speaker 1: uh yeah, it's a it's incredible to watch and the
49:51
Speaker 1: team really rallies around her.
49:53

50:16
Speaker 1: Oh, there was a great candidates once once again, I
50:19
Speaker 1: was looking at Brooklyn Fuller from Meridian, Evelyn Saldivar. But
50:23
Speaker 1: I'm giving it to Ivy Newell, the Bellingham senior. She
50:27
Speaker 1: had three goals this week and in over over two
50:32
Speaker 1: games a couple more shutouts. Bellingham right now is is
50:35
Speaker 1: they're really needing these wins to kind of stay with
50:39
Speaker 1: these other teams. You know, Oak Harbor is a team
50:41
Speaker 1: that you know uh Ana Chorus too. These are really
50:45
Speaker 1: strong teams that we don't mention because they're not walking
50:47
Speaker 1: county teams, but they're up there in the leader boards
50:50
Speaker 1: as well. And so for Bellingham, uh they're really needing
50:53
Speaker 1: to stay up there. And and she was a big,
50:55
Speaker 1: big part of keeping them up there. And I think
50:58
Speaker 1: she's third in goals right now.

51:18
Speaker 1: playing against Seahome and Ferndale, two big time opponents. Linnon
51:22
Speaker 1: went to and zero in that and a big reason
51:23
Speaker 1: why was the sophomore Finlay departure huge huge games. You know,
51:28
Speaker 1: I got to see her up close. I was, you know,
51:31
Speaker 1: ten feet from her when she was serving. And she's
51:33
Speaker 1: got the she's got the crazy you know college surf
51:36
Speaker 1: where you stand all the way back and you throw
51:38
Speaker 1: the ball twenty feet in the air and then you
51:40
Speaker 1: run up and hit it, and it's like, how do
51:42
Speaker 1: you do that? You know, she's so oh, she's so
51:47
Speaker 1: effortless with her athleticism and uh and it just looks
51:50
Speaker 1: so easy when she does it. I mean that's just
51:53
Speaker 1: the way she plays. And and you know, people always
51:56
Speaker 1: talked about like Robinson Canoe like, oh, he could be
51:58
Speaker 1: so much better if he tried our yeah, because he
52:00
Speaker 1: just made it look so easy. But yeah, right, It's
52:04
Speaker 1: like that's kind of like with Finny Partcher. She just
52:07
Speaker 1: makes it look so easy and it's it's incredible to
52:10
Speaker 1: see what she does. And again, just a sophomore. In
52:14
Speaker 1: the match against Ferndale, they played four sets. She had
52:17
Speaker 1: twenty kills in that, so you know, and I know
52:21
Speaker 1: that your math tells you that that's five percent, so
52:25
Speaker 1: which is a huge number. So she's she's just really
52:29
Speaker 1: on the attack right now and when she gets going,
52:31
Speaker 1: she's really hard to stop.
