  Speaker 1: This is Linden senior Spencer Adams and you're listening to
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: the Walking Prop Podcast with Tyler Anderson. Go Lines, Greetings
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: and welcome into the Watkamb Preps podcast. This is episode
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: four hundred and twenty two, the week eight Spring sports Recap,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: and I am Tyler Anderson of Watkamb Preps. I want
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: to give a special thank you to Lynden Senior Spencer
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Adams for the intro. It's always funny when I look
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: for someone to do the intro and I'm always like, oh,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: they've probably already done one. And I kind of thought, well,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I think Spencer's done one, probably for basketball, and I
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: realized I don't think he's ever tough one, so obviously
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: I reached out as he's entering the end of his
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: senior career here and having a tremendous year in baseball,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: which we will talk about in a little bit. So
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: thank you very much to Lynden Senior Spencer Adams for
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: that intro. Also to give a thank you to Walton Beverage,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: who's been a staple in our community for over ninety years.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: And I will continue to work harder every day to
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: make the fantastic people at Walton Beverage. Proud to sponsor
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: youth sports in our community. They deliver superior quality and commitment,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: and I plan to do the very same. So it's
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: been quite a week as a lot of postseason's been
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: happening in some sports, some not quite yet, but we're
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: getting right down to it as there's only a few
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: weeks left of the spring season, which is also a
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: few weeks left in the whole calendar, you know, the
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: whole sports year, So it's crazy. It goes fast and
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: feel like I just recorded one of these a few
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: days ago. Let us start like we always do in
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: girls golf, and the regular season has wrapped up now.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: They had their last matches this past week. I was
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: out at Shuckson golf Course, got to see a lot
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: of Walking County players there. For the season, Blaine finished
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: in fourth place as a team, Ferndale in sixth, Squalkum
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: in seventh, and Nixack Valley in eighth. I did hear
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: that I think Blaine had their highest finish in school history,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: which is pretty cool. So yeah, we'll be looking forward
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: to the playoffs here coming up right around the corner,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: which I'll talk about in just a little bit. But
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: right now, let's take a look at the top ten.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: In tenth place right now, averaging one hundred and six
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: strokes is Thora Engen of Blaine. I saw her at
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: the Shaxton golf Course. Tied for eighth place at one
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: oh five is Abbigail Fife of Squalicum and Elena Dell
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: of Seahome Tied first. Sixth place at one oh four
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: is Marcella Bring of Blaine and Gabriella Cohn of Squalicum.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: In fifth places Dallas Ranky of Meridian averaging one oh one.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: In fourth place is Stella Hogan of Seahome averaging ninety nine,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and third place Emily O'Toole of Ferndale right at ninety
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: and in second place Cali Tan of Meridian at eight
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and Kinsley Rector of Lindon is leading the way averaging
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: eighty four. And she shot her best ever score at
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: shuckson Uh this past week, and which is, you know,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: out of all the courses to sugar, your best score
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: at that course. That tells me a lot. It was
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: a you know, it's very hilly and it's a lot
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: of walking obviously for.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Eighteen holes, and so I think she if she's speaking
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: at the right time, because you can get hot in golf,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: then holy cow, look out, it's gonna be it's gonna
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: be awesome, just too to see what she can do
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: in districts. So let's take a kind of let's kind
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: of take a look at Everything's everything in districts. For
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: one A, two A and three A are all happening
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: at the same time, and we do have, you know,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: some big time players.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: In each classification. With the one A with Callie tannem Meridian,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: two A Kinsley, Rector of Lyndon, and three A Emily
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: O'Toole of Ferndale. Let's kind of take a look at
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: where everything will be. The one A District one golf
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: will take place on Monday and Tuesday at the North
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Bellingham Golf Course, the two A will take place on
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Monday and Tuesday at the Lake Padden Golf Course, and
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: the three A will take place Monday and Tuesday at
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Legion Memorial Golf Course in Everett. So yeah, they're all
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: taking place Monday and Tuesday and two rounds and you know,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you go from there and try to get the state
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know the exact numbers like where you have
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: to qualify and all that, but I'll build. I will
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: be reporting on it as it's happening and stuff like that,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: so we'll I'll find out a lot more as we go,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: but it's gonna be it's gonna be a lot of
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: fun because you know, the whole season leads to this,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: right and and it's gonna be it's gonna be pretty cool.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: And those are you know, the two local ones, the
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: one A and the two A. Those are courses I'm
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: pretty familiar with, so hopefully to make it out to
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: both of them this week. Not sure which day which course.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: I thing it might depend on other events happening around
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: at that time on what day, So I haven't kind
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of I haven't laid out my calendar yet for the week. Heck,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I haven't even looked at what Monday is going to be.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I kind of once I'm done riding on Monday, that's
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: when I look and see. So I don't really quite
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: know yet, but but you can bet I'll be out
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: at places and and check it out. I feel like
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I've been to the North Bellam golf Course the girls
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: tournament the last few years, and and I remember the
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: weather hasn't been the best so hopefully there will be
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: good weather and smooth sailing and and good golf will
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: be played. So good luck to all of them. And
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: and like I said, it's kind of the it's kind
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: of the kind of the culmination of the season, right,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: So it's a it's a lot of fun, really really cool.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Let's take a look at boys golf. And as the
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: regular season wrapped up, Ferndale took second place in the conference,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Sealing took fifth, Meridians Bellingham seventh, and Mount Baker moved
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: up to eighth. This is out of the sixteen teams
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: that are in the conference, so I'm just kind of
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: reporting on which Walkin County teams finished in the top eight.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: As far as the top ten individually go, we have
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: some new names here and at number ten is one
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: of them, Meridians Logan Jacobi, who averaged eighty three point
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: six on the season. Alex Miller of Seahome is ninth
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: eighty three point four. In eighth place was Kingston Pereira
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: of Lennon Christian averaging right at eighty three. Tied for
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: sixth place, Dylan Grace of Bellingham eighty two point two,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: along with Xavier Kelly of Seahome who finished strong to
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: move up into sixth place. He was outside the top
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: ten I think the whole year, and the senior finished strong. Obviously,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: we loved watching him on the basketball court. Really cool
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to see him doing his thing on the golf course
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: as well. In fifth place averaging eighty two is Gavin
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Nabel of Ferndale. Shay Campbell still of belling him at
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: eighty one point five. He hasn't played in quite a while.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: I hope. I don't know what's if he's okay, or
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: if he's nursing an injury, or if he's gonna be
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: able to play, you know, districts or anything like that.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Hopefully he will. Very very talented player. Cameron Fiara of
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Ferndale at in third place seventy nine point four. Travis
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Brocki the third of Ferndale in second place as seventy
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: five point two and in first place right now just
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: one stroke betters Meridians Matthew Blankenberg at seventy four point two.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: And when you look at the one A and the
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: two A and the three A, it's a little bit
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: different for these tournaments coming up for districts. The one
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: A district golf, the one A. Sorry, The one A
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: district golf tournament will be the same two days Monday
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: and Tuesday, at the same course, North Bellingham Golf Course,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: so that's all the same. So I'm wondering if they
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: get this the boys and the girls, just get them
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: all out there playing only five schools right for boys
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: and girls. So I think they can do it to
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: where they can get them all out there at the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: same time, which is probably a good idea. The two
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: A District one boys golf tournament will be held at
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Avalon Golf Links, which is a little further south. That
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: will also be Monday and Tuesday. And the three A
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: District golf tournament will be held down at wid Be
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Golf and Country Club, but that will be Tuesday and Wednesday,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: so that's a little wrinkle there, a little different place,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: slightly different days. And yeah, and you know three A,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I mean Ferndale's got there are three golfers that are
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: averaging eighty two or better. So really they could have
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: a strong showing as a team or with some individuals.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Obviously in the one A you know Matthew Blankenberg, he's
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: got experience and these kinds of tournaments did well at
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: State last year and then two A. You know, I
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: don't know if Shake can gonna be able to play,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: but Dylan Grace has been good. Zaber Kelly, like I said,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: has got hot. Alex Miller is a competitor and you know,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: a three sport athlete that knows what it takes to
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: to to play it in the district level in different sports,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: so he'll be all. He'll be good too, So it's
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: gonna be really exciting. Hopefully I'll be able. I'm sure
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be able to make it down South,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: but I'll definitely be at the North Bellm golf Course
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: either Monday or Tuesday. Like I said, it's kind of
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: depends on what other sports are happening at what times
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: and kind of how convenient I can make it to
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: hit the most things on each day. So it's gonna
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: be really really cool. It just, you know, I don't
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: know how to I don't know how to hide my excitement.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: I really do love doing this and it's and hopefully
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: it shows because yeah, I'm just gonna keep on doing it.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: And it's so fun to cover these athletes and and
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: learn about some of these sports. I mean, I personally
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: I haven't golfed in twenty five years. I know the sport,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I don't watch it ton, but
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I did sit down and watch the Sunday Masters and
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: and uh stuff like that, and it's it's really cool
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: to you know. I just hopefully I can stay out
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: of their way and not you know, uh uh be
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: too much of a distraction for them when they're when
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: they're playing. So I just stay away and ask questions
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: if things are okay, and don't get too close, and
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: and you know, root them on quietly. So good luck
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to all of them coming up, as districts are right
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: around the corner. In girls tennis, it's it's it was
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: an interesting week this past week. Ferndale beat Lyndon four
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: to three, and you know, you obviously you can call
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: an upset. Linden was undefeated. The thing is is the
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: only real way to beat them is you have to
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: win all the doubles and you have to win the
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: fourth singles because their top three players are just so
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: good that you almost have to chalk that up and say, okay,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: we're gonna lose those three. We have to win the
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: other four matches. And Ferndale did that and so congratulations
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to them. Because tennis is one of those sports where
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: if a team is favored over another team, I mean,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: that's like, that's ninety five percent of it right there.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: You do not see a ton of upsets in tennis.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: You might see one here or there in a match,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: but as a team, you just don't see it very often.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: So for Herndale to beat Lyndon, that was that was
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: pretty interesting to see Linnen thirteen and one on the year,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: see them twelve and one, Bellingham twelve and two, Squallaluk
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: them nine and four, Ferndale nine and five, So all
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: these teams up pretty high, which is pretty cool. Blaine
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: finished three and eight, didn't play as many matches that
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: they They will send players to State because the way
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: that it is, being the only one a school and
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: different things like that. They happened last year and they
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: did pretty well, and I think they will send players
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: again and I think they'll probably do pretty well again,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: so we'll follow them as well. But what's interesting with
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: ten right now is they had the sub district tournament
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: for three a during the week and it was just
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: the four schools of Ferndale, Mount Vernon, Oakcarbor, and Cidoe Woolley,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: and in doubles it was the Ferndale team of Aubrey
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Lynch and Josie McClellan that took first place. So they'll
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: be the three seed going into district tournament this upcoming week.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: So that's pretty exciting, really really cool. And I tell
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: you what, the Fernal program just every year has gotten
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit better ever since I've been covering the
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: sport the last four or five years now, so it's
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: really cool to see them just keep getting better and better.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: So congratulations to Aubrey Lynch and Josie McClellan taking first
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: place and winning six to one to six to one
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: in the championship in the final there. So that is
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: just that's and I don't want to say domination, but
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: pretty darn good. Uh So that that that's really really cool.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: They will continue to play on into the district tournament
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: that will include West Go and stuff like that. Now,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: in the in the two way, it's been going on
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: since Friday, so Friday and Saturday they've been having matches
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: and it spills into Monday of this of this week,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: so you know, the singles tournament has already started up
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: like well, Like I said, both of them have already
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: started up and I've got the brackets right here, and
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: in the championship for singles, it will be Halle Brooks
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: of Lindon against Gabriella Gracia Salgado of Seahome. Now I've
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: seen both of them play a ton and so I'm
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not really surprised that this is the matchup. What
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: may what may be surprising to some you know, tennis
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: fans that that are listening, is that Halle Brooks is
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: playing singles, her and her sister Avery are not teaming up. Instead,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: it will be Avery Brooks and Rolana Newcomb that are
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: teaming up in doubles. And I think they're looking at
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: it as this might be a chance for them to
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: get more points, get going into the state tournament or
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: placing at the state tournament, just because because now Halle
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Brooks has a real chance to win state as a
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: singles and the doubles team is competent enough to win
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: state as well. So if you have the singles champion
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and the doubles champion, that could really bode well for
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: you know, getting a better team uh, you know, point
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: total at state, if that makes any sense. So but
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: watching what Halle Brooks has done so far, she hasn't
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: dropped a set in the tournament, and she's about ready
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: to face Gabriella Garcia Salgado, who's a very good player,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: left handed player, very active from from se home. So
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of excited to see that one that'll be happening.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: It looks like Monday the eleventh, so as you're listening
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: to this, so I'm gonna buzz over there probably and
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: get that the winner will go to state for sure.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: The loser will move to another match well where if
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: they win that one, they go to State, but if
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: they lose it, there'll be a state alternate. So it's
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: not necessarily true that if you that that you know
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: the loser will go to state, they still have to
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: win another match. Now, other players that are still alive
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: in this you got Sloane McCoy of Squalkum and Ivy
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Brooks of Bellingham. They're gonna be playing each other in
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: the consolation around loser out winner keeps on going. Also
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: on the other side of the of the bracket, Ashley
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Oscar of Bellingham and Jaden Champion of Lakewood will be
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: playing each other and the loser will be out. The
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: winner moves on, and so those two winners would play
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: each other, and the winner of that would would play
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: the loser of the championship match. So basically you just
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: have to keep winning to stay alive. But that's all
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: gonna be kind of going on on Monday at Seahome
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: High School, So that'll be that'll be pretty cool to
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: go check that out. I'm not I'm not one hundred
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: percent sure what time that will be starting. I'm going
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: to reach out to some coaches and find out, but
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: but I definitely want to be out there for that.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: In doubles, it's kind of going as you would imagine.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: Avery Brooks and Rolana newcom are in the championship match
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: against the Walker sisters of Squalcum, So that will be
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: pretty pretty exciting. Oh man, I just clicked on the
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: wrong thing. Here here we go, and so again it's
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: the same thing. The winner of that automatically state birth
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: district champion losers that will have to play the basically
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: who comes out of the consolation bracket teams that are
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: still alive locally anyways, you have Omili Everett and Maria
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Horga of Seahome. Uh they are teaming up and they
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: are still alive. Emmakuzen Sadie Gustafson of Seahome on the
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: other side of the bracket are still alive as well,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: so they could end up facing each other for a
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: chance to stamp their ticket to go to state. So
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: if they do, then it'll be all Walka County doubles teams,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: which would be really really cool. So yeah, so there's
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: still a lot going on there out at Seahome High School,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: really high end tennis, you know, especially if it's a
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: nice day. It's really cool to go watch. They're very
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: very good players, and Walkom County it does a great
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: job of, you know, supporting and different things like that.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: So I'm just really excited to see what happens. Who
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: comes out and then you know, you never know. You
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: go play it against these other players around the state,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: and you know, it's not one of those sports where
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: you really know who the strong players are. You just
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: go and then you go, wow, look at these records.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: These are pretty good. So you kind of never really know,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: at least I don't. I don't follow it enough to
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: really understand. Maybe maybe there's certain programs that always produce
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: high end talent that I just don't know of, but
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: but it'll be exciting. So the three A and the
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: two A all that coming up, and we'll be we'll
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: be getting our our state berths ready. The crazy thing is,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: if you remember boys state, we'll be playing at the
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: same time. Boys tennis players haven't played since the fall,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: so you got a lot of interesting things there. I like,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: right off the top of my head, I don't know
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: the players. I mean, I think I'm sure Harley Kaiser
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: from Seahome is playing, but I had to I'd have
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: to look at that bracket again because districts were so
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: long ago, and uh, you know, I'm sure they've been
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: training and getting ready. So once that happens with girls tennis,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: boys tennis will be happening at the same time. So
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: a lot going on there down at the North From
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Center in Seattle for state. Yeah, it's gonna be awesome. So,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: uh that is girls tennis. Let's jump ahead to track
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: and Field. Of course, Track and Field is is brought
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: to you by Staffer Insurance. Check them out, give them
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: give them a call through six zero seven four six
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: eight eight zero three, or you can check them out
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: in person. Nineteen O three Front Street in London or
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: online at Stafford Insurance dot com s T A U
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: F F E R Insurance dot com. They are happy
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: to help, so friendly in They're awesome people, great place
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: to go. In track and field, you know, all the
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: schools competed on Wednesday and they're kind of kind of
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: their last meet with other schools heading into districts, and
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: you know, it's always that week where you might not
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: see a lot of top times being broken or different
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: things just because I don't I don't know. Maybe certain
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: athletes are like, okay, I've already qualified for this or
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: that and they might try something else or or whatever.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: But there weren't. There were only two different times and
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: distances that were broken this past week, and they were
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: both in girls track and field. One of them was
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: in the three hundred meter hurdles. So the top time
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: is still Reeves of Seahome, the senior, but she's bettered
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: her time now forty five point nine, so congratulations to
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: her on bettering her own time. Still the top three
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: hundred meters hurdler in Walking County and in the high jump.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: This is this is pretty cool. I mean, Emerson Varga
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: a few weeks ago high jumped five foot four and
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: became only the second player or second athlete, I should say,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: in the last I don't know, a dozen years to
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: reach that height. Well, she has company now as Lennon
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Christian sophomore Tyradikstra high jump five foot four. The crazy
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: thing is she's probably about five foot seven maybe so.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, you know, you see her play volleyball,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: and you see the hops that she has, and you know, great,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: great basketball player as well, and she has the athletic pedigree.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: But I think, and I could be wrong with this
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: about this, but I think this is her first year
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: ever doing track and field and to high jump five
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: foot four as a sophomore while you're doing this as incredible.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: So congratulations to Tyra. It's so weird because I just
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: haven't caught her at a meet doing I've watched some
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: video and it is impressive of what she's doing, but
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: she's picking it up really fast. Now she's tied with
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Emerson Varga a Ferndale for the best high jump of
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: the year five foot four. Truly truly incredible, really really cool.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Let's kind of take a look at what's going on
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: with the district tournaments coming up for track and field.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: For one A, this will be May thirteenth through fifteenth,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: so Wednesday through Friday at Linden Christian High School will
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: be the actual you know, twenty twenty six one A
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: district track me, great place to have it. Track me,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Lynda Christian does it right. Everything is right there. You
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: don't have to go too far to see every single thing.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Not too sure which day I will be there. I
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: kind of I might be there a couple different days,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: just depends, like I said, but I will definitely get
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: out there for some of that. Three A has some
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: sub district stuff going on, and because they it's interesting
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: how they do it, because you got your three A
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Northwest Conference and your three A West co and they'll
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: have their kind of you know, competition before they meet
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: up and go to the next level so to speak.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: And that will be at Ferndale High School for three A,
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: so that those will be the same days Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: and but that will the only local team competing in
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: that will be Ferndale and you know they'll be the
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Oak Harb's and Mount Vernon's and Sedro Woolie stuff like that.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: For two A. It will be it will be down
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: there will be a sub district North, so it'll be
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: you know, the teams up here and they will compete
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: at Civic Stadium. That will also be Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: So yeah, a lot going on again. This is another
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: really busy week is as teams are into the postseason
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: and trying to hit and move on. So uh yeah,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be awesome. And then from there there will
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: be you know, there'll be the district tracks at Granite
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Falls and Lakewood and Shoreline for one A, two A,
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: and three A and then obviously after that it'll move
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: on to state stuff like that. So but you got
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: to get through this, uh this sub district here and
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: and the athletes will be ready again. Walkam County amazing
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: in track and field. I mean we've got so many
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: let me see if we got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: ten school records already set this year and along with
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: three Walkin County records set this year. So really really
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: good athletes right now. And you know that's one of
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the things with the training nowadays and just kind of
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: knowing more about what it takes to to do this
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: and do that and the specialization sometimes is you're just
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: you're gonna see some of these these records fall because
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: the athletes are just getting better, bigger, stronger, faster all
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: the time. So so really cool to be a part
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: of it, see it up close. I'm just blessed to
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: be able to do it. It's awesome. That is track
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: of field. But we do have to talk about the
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Staffer Insurance Track and Field Athlete of the Week, and
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: I'm giving this one to Tyradikstra of Lenni Christian. Like
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: I said, five foot four in the high jump tied
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: for the third best high jump in school history, just
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: two inches behind Madison Wegg who did it in twenty
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: thirteen and Claire Bauman who did it in nineteen seventy eight.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: So I mean as impressive company right there. And like
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I said, you know, the dedication that she has towards
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: her craft, the athleticism that she has, and she's just
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: new to it right now, probably still learning like the
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: technique and stuff. I would not be surprised if she
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: ends up breaking the school record, which is five foot six.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying she's gonna do it this year. I'm
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: just saying that she has that kind of ability, and
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: especially if she keeps getting taller as well. So but
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: we'll have to wait, We'll have to wait and see.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: You know, in the fall, it's a it's a lot
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: of kills there from the front line, and in this
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: in the winter, it's a lot of three point shots,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: and and now in the spring it's a lot of
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: high jumping. So that's that's really cool to see. I
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: love three sport athletes. I think it's fantastic. H I
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: love when they can, you know, show what they can
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: do in multiple sports. That's just that's always the way
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: to go. So congratulations to lynnon Christian sophomore Tyradikstra on
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: winning the Stuffer Insurance Drack and Field Athlete of the Week.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Let us go to boys soccer now. A lot going on,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: especially in playoffs. Uh, you know, the regular season wrapped
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: up last week, so it's been just full on district
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: playoffs this week. A lot going on there. Everything in
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: boys soccer sponsored by North County Alliance FC. Check them
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: out at ncalliance FC dot com. All sorts of different
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: levels here we're talking and club, competitive, recreational. You want
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: to get into soccer at a young age, do you
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: have a you know, if you have a young child
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: that wants to get into it, this is a great
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: place to go. Love love seeing it. And as they
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: produced so much great so many great players come out
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: of that, and we're seeing that a lot right now.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Let's go to the one A bracket for districts right now.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: And there was a playing game on Monday. All these
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: games are at Blaine High School. There was a playing
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: game on Monday. I was out there for that. Nuksack
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Valley handled Mount Baker eight to zero. Mount Baker gets
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: bounced from the tournament. So Knuksack Valley moves on to
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: face top ranked Meridian where they faced them that was
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: on Saturday. They lost five to zero. Meridian well rested,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: played extremely well, five goals. Four different players scored a goal.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: I think soccer RK scored. He may have scored the
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: first and the last one if I remember correctly. But
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: a very great overall team effort by the Trojans. And
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: then on the other side, Lennon Christian defeated Blaine one
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: zero and that was in p KS. So if you're
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: not quite sure what that means, you know it was
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: zero zero after regulation and overtime. And in the regular season,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: that's that's what it is, is zero zero and that it's
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: left at that. But in the playoffs, you got out.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: You gotta have a winner. So each team gets to
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: kick five penalty kicks. And you know, for the most part,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I think when you kick a penalty kick, it's you know,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know what the exact stats are, but it's
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: very high chances that you're going to score on a
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: penalty kick. It's just so close. And you know, they
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: pick their you know, their top players to do it,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: and you get and you get five. And it went
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: back and forth they met, you know, Blaine made one,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: LC made one, Blaine made one, LC made one, and
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: then Blaine's third player kicked it and went over the
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: goals that really turned the turned the tide there. Linda
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Christian kept making theirs that Blaine made the rest of theirs.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: But by the time and Christian's last player came up,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: which was Jackson Yune, who we know very well from football,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: k to forty seven yard field goal during the regular
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: season in football school record. He came up each each
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: team had made four of their goals and this is
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the last one when he put his in. That gave
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Lynn and Christian to win technically a one zero win,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: and so Lenny Christian moves on. So they will take
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: on Meridian in the district championship game. And this is
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: where it gets tricky because the website is giving two
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: different things. It says May eleventh and it says May thirteenth.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Pretty sure it's May thirteenth, so that would be Wednesday,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: and the winner will go to buy districts. The loser
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: is still in it, but then they would play the
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: winner of the Knuxack Valley blaying game. So Nuksack Valley
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: and Blaine are going to play each other on Wednesday
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: before the championship game and that'll be at four thirty,
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: and that will be a loser out game. Now if
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: you win and then you play the loser of the
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: championship game in kind of one of those winner to
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: state loser out things. So basically it's winner to buy districts,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: loser out. So it's giving a lot of kind of
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: muddled information there, and it also says it's the fifteenth
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: or the sixteenth. I'm pretty sure it'll be Saturday at
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: one o'clock, but you never know. These things are all
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: kind of all over the place. So that's I mean
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: one A, it's pretty much set. Everything is kind of
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: lining up. There hasn't been any upsets really, but you
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: never know. Usually it's that second week where you might
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: see an upset here or there. I think we saw
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: one last year, so we'll just have to wait and
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: see with that one. In two AA. A lot of
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: action been going on here. So Walkin County doing pretty well.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Everybody's still alive. In that first round last week, see
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Home beat Marysville Pilchuck to zero. Lynden beat Bellingham one zero,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: very close game. I was out there for this kind
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: of the second half of that one. Squal Can beat
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: Archbishop Murphy four zero. So so three out of four
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: schools that went to the semis all Walkam County schools.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: Bellingham losing, but they lost to a Walkham County school.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: So they had to play Marysville Pilchuck on Saturday just
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: to stay alive. They took care of business. They won
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: three to zero, so they move on in the SEMIS.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: Lynden beat Sea Home A little bit of an upset there.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: That was one zero, very physical game. Eddie Prisino with
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: the with the lone goal of the game and a
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: red card later in the game with about ten minutes
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: to go. But Linden gets to move on and they
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: will face Squalakum, who defeated Lakewood seven to zero. Big big,
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: you know, especially in the second half, a lot of
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: opportunities there. They scored two goals in the first half,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: very very close to each other, probably a minute apart
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: from each other, and that was that. And then the
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: second half Matti Strickland scores three goals in the second
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: half alone. Squalkle goes off, So the top seeded Storm
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: move into the championship game against London. Squaalkam and Linden
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: both already in have state birth so that's really really exciting,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: so congratulations to both of them. But winning this championship
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: game obviously means a lot for seeding and different things
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: like that. So they're still they're not gonna, you know,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: take their foot off the pedal at all. It's gonna
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: be a great, great matchup Linen and Squalkum for the
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: district championship. That will be Thursday night, seven o'clock at
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Civic Stadium. You bet I'll be there. I've been there
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: for the last two or three, and they've come down
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: to PKS in both of them. And I think both
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: years I was doing like live video on Instagram and
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: captured the moment and you know, running towards everybody celebrating.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: So you know, I'm hoping it comes down to PKS again,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: just selflessly for me because it gets it just gets
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: really really exciting. But we'll have to wait. See it's
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: gonna be a really good matchup. Now. See Home Bellingham
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: are both still alive, so they're they're gonna both be
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: playing on Tuesday the twelfth. They'll have back to back.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: They'll have a doubleheader out at Civic Stadium. The first
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: game will be five o'clock. Bellingham will take on lake Wood.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: So that'll be a five o'clock game Tuesday night Civic Stadium.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Loser is out, winner is still in. That'll be followed
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: up by Seahome and Archbishop Murphy at seven o'clock at
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: Civic Stadium. Same thing, loser out, winner moves on. Now,
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: the winner of those two games will then play each
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: other and that will happen on Thursday at five, So
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: it will happened like that'll that'll be the game that
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: would be like the pre game going into the championship game,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: So the loser of that one will be out, but
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: the winner will go play the District five crossover so
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: and then and that game will take place on Saturday.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: So it's very possible that some of these teams will
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: be playing, you know, three games in one week if
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: they can keep winning through the consolation rounds. So we'll
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: have to wait and see there. That's gonna be. That's
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: gonna be pretty exciting because the two A soccer up
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: here is pretty insane. I mean, they really really good teams.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: Two of them have really stamped their ticket to state.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: One more can hopefully it'll be a team from Wakam County,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: so we can keep them going and keep them going strong. There.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: In the three A District tournament, Ferndale hosted a game.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: It was a it was kind of a sort of
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: like a playing game to get into the eight teams
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: of the district tournament, and they were hosting Edmunds Woodway.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: They were the better seeds, so they got to host.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: But they lost four zero and that was that. Ferndale
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: bounced from the from the tournament a little pre prematurely.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: I was kind of surprised by it, not because they
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: had the better seed or anything, but but because they
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: didn't they didn't score a goal. And Ferndale all year
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: has been they they're very offensive. You know, they have
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of different guys that can score. So it
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: was just kind of it was too bad, you know
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: that they that they weren't able to score. But hey,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: you come back stronger next year and you're ready for it,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: and you know, it was a it was a great year.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: It was fun watching them. So congratulations Golden Eagles on
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: a great year. But but their turn, their their run
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: for the season is over. And but I tell you what,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: that team that Edmonds would be team then beat Mount
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Vernon on Saturday, So that tells you a lot. So
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: that Edmunds Woodway team maybe be in tenth ranked in
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: this It was a little, uh, I don't know, a
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: little out of the ordinary kind of huh. Because if
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: you could turn around and beat Mount Vernon Mount Vernon,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: that tells me a lot because I've seen Mount Vernon
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: play against some really good teams and they are legit.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: So so Edmunds Woodway, the Warriors, maybe they have something
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: that we're just finding out about here. Let's take a
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: look at the Goal Leaders, which of course have brought
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: to you by North County Alliance FC, and we're gonna
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: look at the top ten here. So we have a
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: two way tie for ninth place between Hannu Fasani of
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Ferndale and Isaac Grimes of Squalicum. I tell you, Isaac Grimes,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: he can direct that ball pretty darn well, one of
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: the best. I mean, yeah, he scored ten goals on
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: the year and I don't have I don't I don't
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: keep track of assists for every team. I kind of
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: just get what I can get, and I would imagine
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: he's leading the team and assists because he is fantastic
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: just what he can do and where he can place
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: the ball. I don't know that much about soccer, but
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: my goodness, it's it's really fun watching him play. Tied
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: for seventh place is Andres Savenko of Ferndale and Cole Oswalt,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: the freshman from from Squalicum who has really come on
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: strong this year. There have been to some injuries to
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: some forwards and different things like that for the Storm
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: and he's come in and just proved that he could
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: be there. And it's been awesome to see all year.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: He's got eleven goals on the year, tied for fifth
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: place with twelve goals each. Mason Ifsovik of Seaholm, who
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think has been able to play since his
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: injury a few weeks back, and Eddie Persino of Lindon,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: who's you know, coming on strong now. They each have
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: twelve goals on the year, tied for fifth place. Tied
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: for second place. He got three players with thirteen goals.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: Skylar Rowe of Meridian has thirteen, Marcus Kanaan of Lindon,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: the super sophomore, has thirteen, and Chris Mancatta Castillo of
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Nuxac Valley has thirteen. As the pioneers, I've been really
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: showing strong late in the year, and he's had a
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: great couple of weeks here, up to thirteen goals now
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: in the year and leading the way with thirty five
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: goals on the year. No surprise here, Maddick Strickland. He's
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: a He's just a machine. He's a machine out there.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: And I tell you what, two way football coaches better
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: be ready, because what he did in his limited playing
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: time as a running back was really exciting to watch
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: until he had that that horrible injury. Boy, if he's
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent, which looks like he is playing playing soccer. Uh,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: he's a guy that people aren't probably thinking about for
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: football coming up next year and he's going to be
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: a force. So but right now it's all soccer and
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: he has scored thirty five goals on the year. I
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: told him I would look into the record, the Walking
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: County record for goals in a season, and I'm still looking.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: So if there's soccer coaches that are out there that
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: might know, I know certain programs really keep strong tabs
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: on everything, please reach out and let me know what
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: you think it might be. Because I'm really, really curious
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: and I have very limited free time, so trying to
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: find that kind of stuff. You know, I can do it,
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: it just takes time, and time is something I don't
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: really have a ton of. So so yeah, so there's that.
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: We've looked at the playoff brackets for this upcoming week.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Big time game's going to be happening in one A
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: and two A And now it's the North County Alliance
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: FC Player of the Week. He did it for the
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: third time. I mean I've done this before, I think
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: maybe two or three times in a year. But Matti
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Strickland again. So Squalkum is two to zero in these
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: playoffs and he's scored five goals in two playoff games,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: so you know he's not slowing down. He is winning
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: it again. Matti Strickland, the Squalicum Junior is your North
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: County Alliance FC player of the week. Let's move to
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: fast pitch now. And the season was not wrapped up
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: when we last talked. There was still some games on Monday, Tuesday,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Wednesday before the postseason happened, So they're kind of not
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: that they're late to the game, they're just their postseasons
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: starts a little bit later. So let's take a look
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: at the daily recaps, of course, brought to you by
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: Wacom Wolverines Fast Pitch Club. Check him out at wacom
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: Wolverines dot com. Many different levels. They are eighteen U,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: six you, fourteen U, twelve U and TENU. Uh so
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: cool to see these teams what they do on the weekends.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: And and and just and I follow a lot of
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: them on Instagram and try to learn some of these
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: players' names because then I so I know about them
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: when they become freshmen. And it's so fun to always
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: learn about these new athletes and and then and get
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: excited because you know you're gonna watch them play for
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: the next four years and so and fast pitch is
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: one of those sports where a freshman can come in
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: and make a difference right away. So that's that's really
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: exciting too. It's so teams from year to year can
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: make big jumps, and that's that's really really fun to see.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the standings first, because the
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: standings are brought to you by Acceleration Driving School in London.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Many of you out there are learning to drive, and
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I strongly advise you to check out Acceleration Driving School
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: in London. Give Kevin a call at three six zero
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: seven four six four five six seven and tell them
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: you heard about them on the Water Preps podcast. So
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: when you look at the week that was, it started
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: out with some conference games, Meridian beating Lakequid in a
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: thrilling eleven to ten match, Lyndon beating Ferndale eight to two.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: I was there for that one. It was two to
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: two for a while. Campbell to Young with the three
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: run home run kind of broke things open and it
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: moved on from there Oak Harbor beating Mount Baker ten
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: to five, Burlington blanked Bellingham seventeen to zero, Blaine all
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: over Sea Home twenty three to zero, and nukxac Valley
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: beating Anacordus seven to six. You know, in that Blaine game,
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: Aliah Bowman did something that you don't see every day.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: She hit for the cycle and had ten RBIs that
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: is incredible? Is that is quite the performance? The box
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: scores look looked ridiculous, but she is, She's a player.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: And yeah, so Blaine's Blaine's got some pop and they
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: really showed it at Sea Home in that one. On
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: Tuesday there was just one non conference game, Mount Baker
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: going on the ferry over to Orchest Island and they
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: beat the Orchest Island of Vikings I believe, twenty to seventeen.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: And then on Wednesday, the conference schedule finished out with
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: Meridian beating Mount Vernon fifteen to three and Linden blanking
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Lyndon Christian six to zero. That was a huge game
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: that a lot of people out at that one. I
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: had the privilege of being out there for quite a
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: few innings of that, at least more than half the game,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: and Campbell Deyong with another home run in that one.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: She's just putting a stamp on an amazing career for
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: her senior year. So that brought us right into the
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: district tournament, which only the one A has kicked off
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: for district tournaments so far. So this was at Bender
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Fields on Linden where Mount Baker and Meridian played a
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: loser out game right there on Saturday morning. I got
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: to go out there watch the watch the entire game.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker outlasted Meridian twenty one to sixteen. A lot
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: of runs scored in that one. Always tough to go
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: to these games where you know a player might be
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: playing their last game. You know, it's just it's you
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: get really good performances, you get some emotion, but I
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: feel for them, like I I not that I'm rooting
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: or anything like that, but I just I know the feeling.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: You know, I've I've been there before, and it's and
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: it's it's tough and you're trying everything you can to
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: stay alive. Now Baker did beat Meridian. Meridian finished the
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: season really strong with those two league wins. Like I
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: said earlier, but you looked at Meridian's roster and there
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: were no seniors on it, so maybe there weren't as
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: many long faces as there could have been. Everybody comes
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: back next year, and you know, you know, who knows
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: what the infusion of talent from from the year coming up.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: A lot of really good young players on that Meridian team.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: But Mount Baker did move on where they had to,
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: you know, wait for thirty minutes and then play again,
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: and they did. They played against Nuxack Valley and the
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Pioneers were just too too good. I mean, they were
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: just too much for the Mountaineers to handle. Mount Baker
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: already down quite a few players due to all sorts
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: of different circumstances, and I think there was like a
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: volleyball tournament or something going on, so they were missing
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: more players. They suited up a handful of eighth graders
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: and played their hearts out, but it ended against the Pioneers.
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: So the Knuckzack Valley wins twelve to two and they
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: will move on to this. It's a it's a by
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: district district one in District four Combine and down in
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: Centralia at Fort Borest Park. That'll be Friday and Saturday.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: It's a it's a really interesting thing because that there's
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: major teams down there, so it's a it's like a
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: twelve team tournament and and boy it's uh like I said,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: it's really good teams, but five teams get to move
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: on to State from it. So so Walkin County already
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: had Lynnen, Christian and Blaine. They will be going down
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: there for sure. That is that is happening. Oh my goodness,
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: I just refreshed and now I have who the teams
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: are playing. So this is fantastic. I got some information
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: for you. So nuk Sak Valley will be taking on Hoquiam.
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: That will be at nine am on Friday. Okay, want
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: to make sure I'm getting this right. So and that is. Yeah,
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: that's a very early game against Hokium. It's the eight
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: to nine game, so uh so it should be a
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: very very even matchup. I believe they played earlier this year,
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: at least maybe maybe they did. I know Nuksak Valley's
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: gone east of the Mountains and played a handful of teams.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: I just can't remember if they played Hoquim at all.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: Maybe they didn't. They seems like they're playing in football
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: all the time. Is the sixth seeds, so they'll be
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: taking on Kingsaway Christian also at nine am, so some
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: early morning games there. Now the winner of that game
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: plays Lynden Christian, So it's very possible that if Blaine wins. Obviously,
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: if Blaine win was that they will be playing them.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: It's very possible that they will win it, and then
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: they would take on Linden Christian later that day at
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: one o'clock in the afternoon. The winner of the Nuxack
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Valley Hokoum game will take on top ranked Montiesno which
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: Montaseeno is just a juggernaut of all juggernauts as far
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: as when a fast pitch goes. I don't know how
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: many state titles they won. It's a lot, and so
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: I'm not surprised that they're the top seed here as well.
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: Now the lose if you lose in those games, you're
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: still alive. It's a double elimination tournament. But so if
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: Nukxack Valley loses, then they would turn around and play
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: at five o'clock at night on Friday night. And if
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: Blaine loses, then they were saying they lose three then
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: they would play also at five o'clock at night. So
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: the winners move play a little earlier, the losers play
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: a little bit later, so and then it's just you know,
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: you go on and try to play and try to
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: get in the top five out of these twelve teams. Now,
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: you know, when you look at it, you say, okay,
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: five out of twelve. Move on. So who are the
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: top five seeds? So you got Monastana one, Elma two,
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: Lyndon Christian three, which is great for them, seating Catholic four,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: and the fifth seed is Columbia of White Salmon. Now
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Blaine is the sixth, so Blaine. There has to be
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: an upset somewhere for Blaine to squeeze in there and
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: get back to the state tournament for the first time
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: in three years. Nooksack Valley they won the state tournament
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: four years ago. They're gonna have a little harder road
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: to get there, So wolves have to wait and see.
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: But this is exciting. It's going to be fun over
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: at Fort Borist Park in Centralia. That's the one A
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: by district tournament. Now you may say, why in the
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: world are they doing this, Well, it's a tricky thing
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: because in one a fast pitch only twelve teams get
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: to go to the state tournament. It has to do
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: with you know, teams in one A that actually play
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: the sport, and how many teams are there and there's
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: a cutoff, and if there's less than the cutoff, then
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: you only have twelve in the state tournament instead of sixteen.
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: Well they're so close to the cut off, I mean
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: it's like one team away or something. So what was
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: happening is it would only allow one team from District
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: one to get to the state tournament, just one, And
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: there's been years when it's like three could have gone.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: I've been to the state tournament down there in Richland
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: where there was three Walking County teams playing in one
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: A at the same time and in doing well, playing
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: into the next day. So now every year is different,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: I get that. So, but this is a way to
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: even though you're playing the toughest district in the state,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: at least there's five berths. So now it's possible that
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: more than one Walking County team will go, and I'm
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: really hopeful this year that it can happen. So we'll
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: just have to wait and see. Pretty pretty exciting that
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: will be again, that will be Friday and Saturday, but
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: I'd really want to go to that, but I don't
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: think I'm gonna be able to make that happen. Just
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of stuff going on. So yeah, it's gonna
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: be a lot of softball being played down there and
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: and hopefully Walking County can some can get a little,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: you know, little action there that will go the right way,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: let's hope. So in two way Fast Pitch has not
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: started yet for the for the playoffs just yet. It
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: starts Monday. So Lindon is the two seed. They will
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: play Marysville Pilchuck at four o'clock on Monday. This is
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: all out at Bender Fields in London. See Home is
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: the five seed. They'll be taking on Anachordus at the
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: same time. So those are the only two local teams
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: that will be playing in the in the tournament. Win
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: or lose, they will They will play right away again
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: later that night. You know, whether it's in the semi
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: finals or the consolation bracket, we'll just have to wait
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: and see. Then they play again a couple of days later.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: That will be Wednesday. Well, they'll be the championship game.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: Both teams will go to state that reach the championship game,
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: but the winner of the consolation round will have a
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: crossover with District five, So I think our three would
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: play their fifth or something like that and it would
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: be we would host. So it depends on who the
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: three seed is. If it's Archbishop Murphy, then it's probably
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: gonna get hosted down in Anachordus or something like that.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: If it's Ana Chordas if they'd probably play it down there.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: So you just never know who the three is gonna be.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: But the two teams that make it to the state
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: champion or that's the state championship, to the DIF Strict
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: championship will automatically have birth right into state. So good
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: luck to Lyndon and see home there. That'll all be
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: out at Benderfields. I'm definitely gonna be out there checking
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: that out. It's gonna be a lot of fun. And
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: then in three A, Ferndale is the sixth seed that
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: they This tournament has started and there's been some loser
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: out games, but Ferndale got to avoid all of that
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: as they're they're ready to go. They are the six seed.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: They will be playing Shorewood, who's the three seed. This
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: will be at Phil Johnson Fields, I believe in Everett.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: That will start on Tuesday, May twelfth from here. Now
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: now it's double elimination, so Ferndale could drop a game
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: and stay and you know, and and do Okay, I'm
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: trying to see how many teams. Looks like four teams
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: move on to the to the state tournament. So if
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: Ferndale loses their first two, they'll be out, and they will,
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: but they will definitely be playing two games on Tuesday.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: If they win, then they got a real shot to
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: go to state, even if they win just that first game.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: If they lose the first game, then they'll have to
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: win to get into a game for a winner to
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: state loser out, which will be played on Thursday. All
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: these games will be played at Phil Johnson Field's down
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: in Effett. Good luck to the Golden Eagles. They've been
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: so fun to watch. I tell you that there's they
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: bat five players in a row that are left handed.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: It's crazy. The eight, nine, one, two, three hitters all
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: left handed. So yeah, good luck to them. Hopefully, hopefully
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: they can keep keep tearing it up. And you know,
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a fun and exciting young team to watch.
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: And uh, they're just going to grow together and keep
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: on getting better, so that that's really really cool. Well,

  Speaker 1: lot of runs. In hits, we have a two way

  Speaker 1: see that a lot with left handed hitters. Left hand
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: hitters sometimes can draw a ton of walks. Sometimes pitchers
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: are just not used to facing them, I guess. In
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: slugging percentage, Mason Pulse leading the way with a slugging
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: percentage of twelve thirteen. If you're if you're slugging over

• 54:14
  Speaker 1: and and Ellie McKissick of Nick zac Valley Campbell to

  Speaker 1: of six eighty four and uh yeah, getting on base
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: more than two thirds of time. Pretty impressive there. Let's
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: go to the pitching stats, and I just realized that
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: I have the wrong when I got career pitching stats. Here,
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: I want twenty twenty six fast pitching stats. Okay, there
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: you go. In wins, it is Callie Rammerman now with
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: sixteen wins on the ear she is sixteen to four

• 55:17
  Speaker 1: so slight two point five nine to Kali Ramerman's two
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: point six to zero. So extremely close there, yeah, very

  Speaker 1: very close, neck and neck. It was great seeing them
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: battle each other there at Lennon High School earlier in
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: the week. I think that was Wednesday. Awesome, awesome game.
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: So those are your stat leaders, and now it comes
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: down to the Walk and Wolverines Fast Pitched Player of
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: the Week, and I'm giving this one to Klie Rammerman
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: of Lynnen. I mean, she's had weeks all year that
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: have been great, but this this week in particular, she
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: had to pitch against Ferndale and then Lennon Christian two
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: games and three days against very good talent and the
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: best the two other best teams Walk County, and she

  Speaker 1: zero three five four, five to six four. Let's take
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: a look at look at what happened this past week.
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: There was a few games, non conference games that were
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: played earlier in the week, kind of getting ready for
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: postseason and different things like that. Blaine went on the
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: road and beat Granite Falls four to two, and that was,
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: you know, just a good game, just to get one
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: in there before things get going here. Ferndale, they already
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: knew they were out of the playoffs. They got to
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: host a game against Burlington Edison, you know, just a
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: non conference game. They lost seven to three. But there
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: were some really cool things that happened in that game,
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: and one of them being Colson la Valley coming up
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: and getting a base hit in his final at bat.
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: You know, hardly ever played a lovable guy hits a
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: double in the gap. That place went crazy, and I
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: wanted to reach out to him because he scored a
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: touchdown earlier in the year two. He's the center on
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: the football team, tremendous center, All Conference first team guy,
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: three year starter, and he scored it when he recovered
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: a fumbe on in the end zone. He scored a touchdown.
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: And then he does this and he hits a double.
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: Hey man, Coulson, congratulations. I'm curious which one were he
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: more excited about, because they're both so awesome, and I
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: just I love that for you, man, this is so
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: cool that you did both those things and it's something
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: you'll remember for the rest of your life. On Tuesday,
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: Mount Baker went over to Orchest Island and got to win.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: Is their only win of the year. Really happy to
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: see that they win fifteen to thirteen. A lot of
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: great performances there. Camden Moe with his second career home
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: run in his final high school or high school baseball game.
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: Zion Peg they hit three doubles, so really really good
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: things that happened in the game. I'm glad Mount Baker
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: was able to end it on a win. That's really
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: good to see. And squal Marysville Pilchuck eleven to one
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: in their playoff game their play in game to get
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: into the two A District tournament. Meridian then beat Granted
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: Falls six to two in their play in game to
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: get into the one A district tournament. So we're going
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: to talk about those tournaments right now. Let's start off
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: with one A. So this is District one and two
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: combine to play this double elimination tournament where four teams
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: to get to move on to the state tournament. Such
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: a fun tournament that's that's held on Saturdays. Well was
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: last Saturday where it started, and all the games were
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: at Joe Martin Field and Seahome High School simultaneously. Each
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: each location plays a quadruple header. It's just game after game,
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: everybody's playing a double header. It's so cool. And Walkin
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: County did very very well on this. This was really
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: fun to be a part of on Saturday and checking
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: out all the action. Blaine defeated over Lake Bear Creek
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: one zero. Ashton Vizzetti throws a gem in that one,
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: so they get to move on and Meridian lost to
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: Cedar Park Christians seven to one. So Meridian moved on
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: to the consolation round, but they were the only Waking
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: County team to do that, as Luksak Valley beat University
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: Prep four to three and Linnen Christian walked off Kings
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: three to two. They were down two zero going into
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the seventh and come back and win
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: that one three to two with a line drive hit
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: into right field by Sam Cock to score the winning run.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: Really really cool to see that. So then the semi
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: So then the semi finals at Joe Martin Stadium had
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: a couple of games with Walking County flavor. As Cedar
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: Park Christian defeated Blaine four to two. You know, they
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: went with their a's Josh Cochran. They saved him until
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: this game. It worked out and you know, they were
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: up to zero, but it just wouldn't happen. There were
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: you know, there was a few walks in there, and
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: and then finally when Josh Josh Cochran gave up his
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: first hit, it was a double that scored two more
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: runs to put the Eagles ahead and they ended up
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: defeating Blaine four to two for that state birth there
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: in the In the second, the last game of the night,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: Lennon Christian defeated Nuoksack Valley five zero, Eli Mayberry throwing
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: a complete game shutout in just sixty five pitches. That's insane.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: Fifty of them were for strikes. It was all Lindon
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: Christian and that one. So it's Lennon Christian and Cedar
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: Park Christian for the district or the by district championship
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: at Joe Martin Stadium. That will be this upcoming Saturday
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: at three thirty. So that's gonna be really really cool. Now,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: both teams have already clinched their ticket to state. That's
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: already happened, but this will be again. This will be
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: for seeding. You really want to win this game because
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: it's really important. In the consolation side, Meridian lost to
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: over Lake Bear Creek four to three. They got walked off.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: So the Trojan season is done with a five and
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: sixteen record. It's just a weird year for Meridan. You know,
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: there was there. They only have one senior on the team.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: One of their best players got hurt halfway through the
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: season and it just kind of, you know, things just
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: were not working. And I think that, you know, coach
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: Leski just have a clean slate going in next year
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: and very, very I think they could do a lot
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: of great things next year. I think it's gonna be
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: a huge turnaround. You wait and see. I'm telling you,
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: Trojans are gonna be a big time next year in baseball.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: On the other side, kingsbat University Prep eight to six.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: So that means that on Saturday afternoon at one o'clock
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: at Seaholme High School, Kings will play Blaine. Winner goes
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: to state, loser is out. So it's a huge game.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: That'll be at one o'clock at Seaholme High School on
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: Saturday over at Joe Martin Stadium at the same time,
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: same situation, Nooksack Valley against over Lake Bear Creek winner
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: to state, loser out as and then you know, at
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: three thirty at Seaholm High School, the winner of those
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: two teams will play each other again. That will be
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: proceeding as both teams at that point will have clinched
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: a state birth. So that is the one a by
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: district tournament we're just going over to two A now.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: Where As I said earlier, squad can beat Marysville Pilchuck
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: eleven to one to take that eight seed to go
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: up against Seaholme in the first round. I was down
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: there at Daniels Field on Thursday, got to see the
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: whole game between Bellingham and Lynn in the two to
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: seven game, and a boy, it did not look good
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: early for for Lyndon. The Bellingham's first five batters all walked.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: They scored three runs in the inning without scoring, without
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: recording a hit, and it looked it looked very dire
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: for for Bellingham. They had to or for Linden. I'm
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: sorry Bellingham was you know, they could do no wrong.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: Linden had to pull their pitcher without an out being recorded.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: They put in Eli Dimter. He he pitched tremendous, was
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: under control. He threw over one hundred pitches, was able
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: to give it off to Gordy Bedlington. The game was tied.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: Lyndon kind of kept chipping away and then Gordy Bedlington
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: later in the game in the bottom of the eighth
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: with a walk off double to the outfield and Linden
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: picks up the win. Four to three in that one
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: to move on to the semi finals. And the other
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: Walking County game Seahome blank Squalkum eight zero as they
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: got to move on to the semi finals. And then
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: on Saturday, the early game Bellingham Lake would loser out
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: Gamellingham won four to one, so huge moment for them
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: to score all four runs in there in one inning
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: and it was later in the game they were down
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: one zero and so again like White last year, that's
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: what Bellingham does. They just they kind of play spoiler
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: in the eliminate teams. Now they will be facing Archbishop
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: Murphy and that will be on Monday at three point
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: thirty down at daniels Field at Anachordas. All these games
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: we played at daniels Field and Anachortas and that one
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: will be a loser out game. So uh, you know,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: Bellingham is gonna try to keep their season alive there
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: and then Brillington and Anacurtis will also be playing. But
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: the championship game on this will be on Wednesday, will
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: be between Lyndon and Seahim. Now Linen and Sea home
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: baseball teams both have clinched their spot in state. So
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: again this is for seeding and it's for the district championship.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: But congratulations to both teams getting this. They came in
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: as the one and two seed, Lennon beating Anna Chordus
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: nine to five in the semi finals. They were down
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: like five to one in the fifth or something like that.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: It was not looking good. They scored seven runs in
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: one inning eight and or one more run in the
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: eighth or I'm sorry the following inning and Joe Benzi
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: picks up the win and and uh yeah, the Lions
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: has had just had that beginning again and they ended
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: up beating ani Chordus nine to five. On the other side,
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: see home all Over Archbishop Murphy eleven to six. Garrett Gibbons,
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: the freshman left. He picked up his six to win
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: in that one. And so yeah, so it'll be Linen
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: and Seahom in the championship game that will be on
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: Wednesday at six o'clock down at Daniels Field and uh
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: also on Wednesday at three point thirty. The early game
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: will be the winner to a District one versus five
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: crossover which will happen on Saturday and the loser will
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: be out. So Bellingam has to win against Archbishop Murphy,
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: just to get into that game and then if they
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: can win that game, then they will be playing They'll
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: be playing the District five number three. Don't know the location.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: I think it might even it might be at Joe's
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: or it might be at Daniels Field. It's hard to say,
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: but I think it will be District one will be
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: hosting that one. So so hopefully, you know, that's what
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: Bellingham is aiming for right now. They need to keep
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: winning to get to that game and win that game
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: on Saturday to get to the state tournament. Who a
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: lot going on? Three A. Ferndale did not make the
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: three A District tournament. It's kind of a crazy story there,
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: as they finished, you know, above five hundred in the conference.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: But but there are three but the three games they
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: had against other three A teams did not allow them
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: to get to the three A District tournament. So as
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: they lost all those games, sad story, but that's kind
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: of just the way that the cookie crumbles. Let's take
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: a look at the stat leaders and the daily scoreboards.

• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: stat leaders, and we're gonna start off with runs scored.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: Brayln O'Brien of Ferndale still leading away with twenty six
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: runs scored, although his season has wrapped up already. You
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: got a couple other guys that are still playing that
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: are right on his heels as Gordy Bedlington of Lyndon,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: sam Cock of Lyndon Christian each have twenty four. Eli
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: Mayberry of Lyndon Chrishtan and Hudson Nef of Seaholme and
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: Trey Johnson of Lyndon CHRISHTN all have twenty two. So
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: they're right there, pretty darn close, and they are still
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: playing for hits on the season. Spencer Adams, who gave
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: us the intro, he's got twenty nine hits on the year.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: That is an incredible number. If you get over twenty
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: hits in a year, that is that's that's pretty darn good.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: Where he's already had got twenty nine in doubles. Jad
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: Geiger Siom has eleven doubles on the season. In triples,

  Speaker 1: Joe Harward of Bellingham leading the way with four triples,
• 1:08:11

• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: home runs and then runs batted in. Spencer Adams has
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: twenty three runs bated in. He is also leading the
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: way with a four to sixty eight batting average. There's
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: only a few players that have a batting average above
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: four hundred, Aaron Garza of Blaine and Tyson Barksdale Mount
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: Baker at four thirty three and four to thirty two
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: as well. Stolen bases, Joe Harward and Hudson Neff are
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: tied with twenty stolen bases each. Of course they are
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: Those two guys have been going at it the whole year.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: Way up there in stolen bases, Sam Cock leading the
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: way with walks with twenty walks on the year. In
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: slugging percentage, it's Spencer Adams. He's slugging six thirteen on
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: the season. That has a pretty darn good number hits
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: by pitch. Dawson Van Dalen picked up another one in
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: the district tournament. He has now been hit by a pitch.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: He's not been hit by a pitch twelve times. Of course,
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: he's the outfielder from Lyndon. And then an on base percentage.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: Spencer Adams gets on base fifty five point four percent
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: of the time, just barely ahead there of Sam Cock
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: of Lennon Christian and Aaron Garza of Blaine. Let's go
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: to the pitching numbers now and then leading the way
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: and wins. I was talking about it earlier. It's the
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: seahome lefty Garrett Gibbons, who is now six and one
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: on the year. And then in saves it is still
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: Gordy Bellington and Aaron Garza each have two saves on
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: the season. Innings pitched, Hudson Johnson of Squalkam has thrown
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: fifty eight innings. Yeah, I forgot to mention Squalkum. I'm
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: sorry I missed this. Squalicum lost to Burlington as in
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: nine to one on Saturday, so their season came to
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: close at six and seventeen. So but a lot of
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: young guys on that on that team too, they will
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: have some guys to reply that are gonna be really tough.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: But going forward, they played a lot of young kids,
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: so uh, they'll they'll, you know, they'll they'll keep that
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: going on pretty good. I see Yeah, innings pitch, Like
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: I said, Hudson Johnson's squalling leading the way with fifty
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: eight innings pitched in strikeouts, Josh Cochran of Blaine leading
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: the way with seventy five strikeouts on the year, and
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: an e ER Well, that depends on what I have
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: the number at, but I Ashton Vizzetti of Blaine has
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: a zero point seven to one e R Garrett Gibbons
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: zero point six seven. They've each thrown pretty close about
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: the Sam Mount innings. Ashton Pizzetti has thrown twenty nine
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: and two thirds and Garrett Gibbons is throwing thirty one
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: in a third. So so yeah, I think I have
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: I think it's Gibbons. Gibbons is leading the way er
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: a zero point sixty seven. Another ERA under one is
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: Josh Cochran of Blaine zero point nine to one. So
