- 0:45Speaker 1: the volleyball team that are also on this flag football team.
- 0:50Speaker 1: You know, the Linden girls basketball team is favored to

- 0:58Speaker 1: on coach Deekster and the fast to win as well.
- 1:01Speaker 1: And they have a really good team. And the girls
- 1:04Speaker 1: tennis team is fantastic too. So you might see five
- 1:07Speaker 1: girls state championship teams this school season, which is incredible
- 1:14Speaker 1: from one school, So just really crazy to think about.
- 1:18Speaker 1: But congratulations to Sarah McFee, thank you very much for
- 1:20Speaker 1: doing the intro. Also, I got to talk about Walton Beverage.
- 1:23Speaker 1: They've been a staple in our community for over ninety years,
- 1:26Speaker 1: and I will continue to work harder every day to
- 1:28Speaker 1: make the fantastic people at Walton Beverage proud to sponsor
- 1:31Speaker 1: youth sports in our community. They deliver superior quality and commitment,
- 1:35Speaker 1: and I plan to do the very same. Also, do

- 1:46Speaker 1: youth have an opportunity to compete in athletics. Visit them
- 1:50Speaker 1: online at nwofficials dot com to learn more. This is
- 1:55Speaker 1: usually where I talk about girls wrestling and boys wrestling,
- 1:58Speaker 1: but nothing happened this week. They're getting ready for the
- 2:01Speaker 1: Matt Classic coming up this upcoming week, so and I talked.
- 2:05Speaker 1: I talked on last week's podcast out every single wrestler
- 2:09Speaker 1: that's moving on. So that's a really really exciting event.
- 2:13Speaker 1: If you've never been there, is fantastic. I've been there,
- 2:16Speaker 1: I think three or four times, and it's been a
- 2:19Speaker 1: long time. Since I've been there. I wish I could
- 2:22Speaker 1: go this year, but uh, it's not in the cards.
- 2:25Speaker 1: So there's just a lot of things, a lot of
- 2:27Speaker 1: things going on. I do have someone that asked about
- 2:31Speaker 1: helping me take pictures there, and so I set him
- 2:34Speaker 1: up with credentials and everything, and not one hundred percent
- 2:36Speaker 1: sure if he's going, but if he is, I think
- 2:38Speaker 1: he'll be good to go. So let's talk about flag football.
- 2:41Speaker 1: But we were just talking about a little bit ago.
- 2:44Speaker 1: What a weekend it was in the first ever flag
- 2:46Speaker 1: football state tournament. Now, not a lot of schools play,
- 2:50Speaker 1: so one in two way were combined for postseason play
- 2:54Speaker 1: and in the semi finals, Linden defeated Port Angeles twenty
- 2:58Speaker 1: eight to fourteen Squalicahawia twenty one to seven, which meant
- 3:02Speaker 1: it was going to be an all Walka County championship game,
- 3:05Speaker 1: which is incredible. Linden defeated squalak from twenty one to seven.
- 3:10Speaker 1: The Lions completed their undefeated season with a state championship.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Congratulations to coach Mike Regis in the entire program at Lindon.
- 3:17Speaker 1: What a legacy, pretty incredible. It's just you know, when
- 3:24Speaker 1: I heard they were joining like football this year. I thought, well,
- 3:29Speaker 1: of course they'll be great at it. The crazy thing
- 3:33Speaker 1: is is that a lot of the other schools, the
- 3:34Speaker 1: four big school four bigger schools I should say, in
- 3:37Speaker 1: Walkham County played a kind of a condensed season last year. Belling,
- 3:42Speaker 1: mcm Squalkman, Ferndale and Linden did not. And Linden does
- 3:45Speaker 1: not have a home field. I think they played their
- 3:48Speaker 1: home games at Ferndale. And you go on and win
- 3:52Speaker 1: the state championship. So how about that? Pretty incredible. Let's
- 3:56Speaker 1: talk about boys swimming and diving, and when we do,
- 3:59Speaker 1: we got to talk about offer insurance. You can visit
- 4:01Speaker 1: them in person at nineteen o three Front Street and
- 4:04Speaker 1: Lynden give McCall three six zero seven four six eighty
- 4:07Speaker 1: eight zero three. We had the district boys swimming and
- 4:13Speaker 1: diving meet this past weekend and in three A dominated
- 4:20Speaker 1: by Shorecrest Shorewood, those two schools put up a ton
- 4:24Speaker 1: of points, just like they did last year. Ferndale took
- 4:28Speaker 1: thirteenth place out of the fifteen schools with thirty eight points.
- 4:32Speaker 1: No swimmers advanced to the state tournament. Very very competitive
- 4:35Speaker 1: at the three A division. So yeah, it's insane how
- 4:39Speaker 1: good they are. In two A and Accordis won the
- 4:43Speaker 1: district meet with four hundred and thirty five points. Belliam
- 4:46Speaker 1: took second place two hundred and fifteen points, Seem took
- 4:49Speaker 1: third with one hundred and ninety one. Squall Look Them
- 4:51Speaker 1: took fourth with one hundred and twenty nine, Linden took
- 4:54Speaker 1: sixth with sixty eight points, and Blaine got seven points.
- 4:57Speaker 1: With their swimmers. There are a handful of swimmers heading
- 5:03Speaker 1: on to state, so we're gonna go through each of
- 5:05Speaker 1: them and talk about each each different kind of race
- 5:10Speaker 1: and different thing like that. So let's start off with
- 5:15Speaker 1: two hundred medley relay. The Bellingham team of Camp Hancock,
- 5:19Speaker 1: Ivan Kurria, Marley Lotts, and Tony Seaholme. They are the
- 5:24Speaker 1: top ranked Wakin County team in that race. They are
- 5:27Speaker 1: ranked fifteenth in the state. The Seahome team of Owen Reed, Willberella,
- 5:32Speaker 1: Liam Deheim and Cyrus mcfrasier are the seventeenth ranked team,
- 5:36Speaker 1: and then the Swallocome team of Tristan Jensma, Micah Kerman
- 5:39Speaker 1: and Nathan Wang and Gus Meyer they are the twenty
- 5:43Speaker 1: fourth ranked team. So those three relay teams will be
- 5:47Speaker 1: competing in the two hundred medley relay in the Boys
- 5:50Speaker 1: Swimming and Diving State Championship Meet coming up this week.
- 5:55Speaker 1: Also in the two hundred individual medley, Marley Lots of
- 5:58Speaker 1: Bellingham is the twelfth rank swimmer. Liam Dahem of Seaholm
- 6:01Speaker 1: is fourteenth and Owen Reed of Seaholm is twenty second.
- 6:05Speaker 1: In the fifty freestyle, Will Burrella of Seaholm is the
- 6:08Speaker 1: twenty first ranked swimmer in the state in that race
- 6:13Speaker 1: and he will be the loan participant from Walkam County.
- 6:16Speaker 1: In diving, this is this is amazing. We have the
- 6:20Speaker 1: top four ranked divers in the state right here in
- 6:24Speaker 1: Walkham County and we have six of the top or
- 6:27Speaker 1: five of the top six, so pretty incredible. Aiden Schmidt
- 6:30Speaker 1: of Seaholm is the number one ranked diver. Nolan Whitman
- 6:33Speaker 1: of SQUALKM is number two, number Alex Whitman of SQUALKM
- 6:36Speaker 1: is number three. Miles Ludwig of Bellingham's ranked number four,
- 6:39Speaker 1: Keaton Espinoza of Bellingham is ranked sixth, Eli Cusick of
- 6:43Speaker 1: SQUALKMA is seventeenth, and Jacob Carter of Bellingham's ranked twenty second.
- 6:47Speaker 1: So we got seven divers competing for the state championship,
- 6:51Speaker 1: and the top four are all from the Walkham County
- 6:55Speaker 1: So that's where, you know, if we're gonna you know,
- 6:58Speaker 1: make some hey here, that's a good, great place to
- 7:00Speaker 1: get some points for Walkham County schools. In the one
- 7:03Speaker 1: hundred butterfly, Will Burrella of Seems ranked seventeenth and Marley
- 7:07Speaker 1: Lotts of I'm sorry Will Burrella of Sealm and Marley
- 7:10Speaker 1: Lotts of Bellingham is ranked twenty second. In the five
- 7:14Speaker 1: hundred freestyle race, camp Hancock of Bellingham is ranked eighth
- 7:17Speaker 1: and Liam Deheim of Seaholme is ranked tenth. In the
- 7:20Speaker 1: two hundred freestyle relay, Caden Schmidt, Jason McGinnis, Sal Sanders,
- 7:25Speaker 1: and Cyrus mcfraser of Seaholme, that team is ranked eighteenth,
- 7:28Speaker 1: and then right behind them, ranked nineteenth is the Bellingham
- 7:31Speaker 1: squad of Torren Fraser, Carlos fool, Nicholas Rayon, and Ivan Kyriev.
- 7:36Speaker 1: In the one hundred backstroke, camp Hancock of Bellingham is
- 7:39Speaker 1: ranked eighteenth in the state. And then in the final race,
- 7:42Speaker 1: the four hundred freestyle relay, we have a couple teams
- 7:44Speaker 1: from Walkham County ranked fourteenth is the Seahome team of
- 7:48Speaker 1: Liam Deheim, Hans Bondreau, Owen Reid, and Will Burrella. And
- 7:51Speaker 1: ranked seventeenth is the Bellingham team of twenty Seaholme, Camp Hancock,
- 7:56Speaker 1: Ewan Kelly and Marley Lotts. So I mean there's quite
- 8:01Speaker 1: a bit of participants, not a ton of highly ranked ones,
- 8:05Speaker 1: so they're gonna have to, you know, do their best
- 8:07Speaker 1: to get up there and get really big time points
- 8:10Speaker 1: and and you never know. I mean it's you know,
- 8:12Speaker 1: Bainberge Island is always amazing, and it's it's it's always
- 8:16Speaker 1: interesting to see kind of how the rest of the
- 8:17Speaker 1: state is uh in comparison to the Walking County swimmers.
- 8:21Speaker 1: But I tell you what, those divers, uh, they have
- 8:24Speaker 1: a great, great chance just kind of based on what
- 8:27Speaker 1: they've done so far this year. So we'll be rooting
- 8:30Speaker 1: them on as well. Let's shift our attention to girls basketball,
- 8:35Speaker 1: where the nightly scoreboards are brought to you by Edeline
- 8:37Speaker 1: Derry from Satisfied Cows to Satisfied Customers. Edling Derry is
- 8:41Speaker 1: my favorite place in Walkin County to get a cold treat,
- 8:44Speaker 1: and you can check them out at any of their
- 8:46Speaker 1: five stores. Two in Linden one and Blaine one in
- 8:48Speaker 1: Sue mass and of course the one in Ferndale where
- 8:50Speaker 1: I find myself the most often. We're still going with
- 8:54Speaker 1: district tournament action here, and we're gonna look at the
- 8:58Speaker 1: all the all the brackets here. We're going to start
- 9:00Speaker 1: off at one B where earlier in the week Leimu
- 9:05Speaker 1: Nation defeated Concrete for the district championship and moved on
- 9:09Speaker 1: to the tried district tournament. So it's kind of interesting
- 9:14Speaker 1: how they do it. And we've seen other divisions do
- 9:16Speaker 1: this as well. One A had done this before and
- 9:19Speaker 1: in the not too recent past, where you know, you
- 9:23Speaker 1: like the top you know, four or five teams from
- 9:26Speaker 1: districts will go on to this tried district District one,
- 9:29Speaker 1: two and three where a lot of teams can end
- 9:34Speaker 1: up going to State. I think it's like seven teams
- 9:37Speaker 1: go to State from this tournament coming up, and Leimu
- 9:42Speaker 1: Nation is ranked third right now out of the twelve teams,
- 9:47Speaker 1: and seven of them go on. Now leim Nation because
- 9:49Speaker 1: they're ranked third, they got to skip the playing round
- 9:53Speaker 1: and host the quarterfinal round, and what do you know,
- 9:57Speaker 1: they're playing Concrete again, so they get to host in
- 10:00Speaker 1: this round, so they'll be hosting Concrete. That'll be on
- 10:04Speaker 1: Tuesday the seventeenth, and that game will be at five
- 10:07Speaker 1: point thirty at Lemon Nation High School. If they win
- 10:11Speaker 1: that game, then they will move on to play on
- 10:14Speaker 1: Thursday in a site that's unknown, but it'll be a
- 10:17Speaker 1: neutral site. So you know, I expect them to defeat
- 10:22Speaker 1: the Lions once again. It was pretty uh, they beat
- 10:25Speaker 1: them pretty handily the first time, so you know that
- 10:28Speaker 1: that should happen again. And yeah, I mean the Lemination
- 10:33Speaker 1: girls right now, they're on a roll and and really
- 10:37Speaker 1: really fun to watch them play. You know, they're the
- 10:40Speaker 1: people call it the run and gun. Jim Carberry has
- 10:43Speaker 1: called it the fun and run because they have so
- 10:45Speaker 1: much fun playing defense and they got a lot of
- 10:48Speaker 1: kids that can shoot it. So you know, they got
- 10:51Speaker 1: three different players that are averaging at least fourteen points
- 10:54Speaker 1: a game, and that's you know, that's pretty incredible when
- 10:57Speaker 1: you when when you have that and they are so
- 11:00Speaker 1: fun to see. They just swarm all over and hopefully
- 11:03Speaker 1: they'll have a big run here. I think, you know,
- 11:06Speaker 1: being the third ranked team in this tournament and seven
- 11:08Speaker 1: go on to state, I think that's pretty safe to
- 11:11Speaker 1: say they will do pretty well and get out there
- 11:15Speaker 1: and then it's just once they get into State, you know,
- 11:18Speaker 1: hopefully they can perform under the bright lights and all
- 11:21Speaker 1: that stuff. I think they'll do a fantastic job. This
- 11:24Speaker 1: is a nice window that they have right now with
- 11:26Speaker 1: the seniors that they have and the underclassmen combination. It's
- 11:30Speaker 1: a this is the year and I think coach James
- 11:34Speaker 1: knows that. And yeah, I'm really really excited for what
- 11:38Speaker 1: they can do. They're so much fun to watch. Let's
- 11:41Speaker 1: jump over to one A now where Blaine was defeated,
- 11:46Speaker 1: so they are out. Their season is finished right now,
- 11:49Speaker 1: so the other four schools are still alive. Last week,
- 11:53Speaker 1: Nukxac Valley beat Mount Baker fifty six to forty seven,
- 11:57Speaker 1: and Lenna Christian beat Meridians sixty six, So that means
- 12:00Speaker 1: Nuksack Valley and lind and Christian will play each other
- 12:03Speaker 1: for the district championship game. For boy, I don't know,
- 12:07Speaker 1: I think I said something like the sixth year in
- 12:09Speaker 1: a row that they're playing each other in this game,
- 12:12Speaker 1: the winner will go to State. The loser still has
- 12:15Speaker 1: to win another game to go to State, and Linden
- 12:19Speaker 1: Christian will be you know, favored in this one. This
- 12:23Speaker 1: game will take place on Tuesday out at Linden High
- 12:28Speaker 1: School at five forty. So that's the district championship game
- 12:31Speaker 1: for girls Nuksack Valley and Linden Christian. In the Constellation game,
- 12:35Speaker 1: Meridian will take on Mount Baker. That game will take
- 12:38Speaker 1: place on Friday night at London High School at five forty.
- 12:42Speaker 1: The loser is done for the year. The winner moves
- 12:45Speaker 1: on to take on the loser of the district championship game,
- 12:49Speaker 1: and then that game will be on Saturday afternoon at
- 12:53Speaker 1: one pm at London High School. So that's the tough
- 12:57Speaker 1: thing about playing that Friday night game. If you win,
- 13:01Speaker 1: you have to turn around. I mean it's great your
- 13:03Speaker 1: season gets to continue, but you have to turn around
- 13:05Speaker 1: and play the next afternoon, you know, against a team
- 13:09Speaker 1: that's higher ranked than you are. So that's why it
- 13:12Speaker 1: was so important to win that semi final game. So
- 13:14Speaker 1: Mount Baker Meridian kind of have their backs up against
- 13:16Speaker 1: the wall. They got to battle it out and then
- 13:19Speaker 1: play another game. The winner will have to play another
- 13:21Speaker 1: game the next week. So yeah, I mean it's it's
- 13:26Speaker 1: tournament basketball, right, that's kind of the way that it is,
- 13:29Speaker 1: but it's so much fun. This is such a great
- 13:32Speaker 1: time of the year, so much basketball going on. You know,
- 13:34Speaker 1: this week will be a lot of driving up to
- 13:36Speaker 1: Linden and Mount Vernon back and forth, going to different games.
- 13:40Speaker 1: It's so so exciting and just glad to be a
- 13:44Speaker 1: part of it, and I'm glad that the community allows
- 13:46Speaker 1: me to keep doing this, and it's just it's so
- 13:49Speaker 1: much fun and hopefully I'm able to provide some kind
- 13:52Speaker 1: of service because it's it is so great. Let's jump
- 13:56Speaker 1: over to two way now where there's been a lot
- 13:58Speaker 1: of action this past week. Bellingham. They beat Marysville Pilchuck
- 14:03Speaker 1: seventy to twenty six in the play in game to
- 14:06Speaker 1: get into that quarter final round where they played Linden.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Lindon of course, you know, just one of those one
- 14:14Speaker 1: of those teams that you don't see very awesome very often,
- 14:19Speaker 1: once in a lifetime kind of talent and drive and
- 14:23Speaker 1: you know, big win streak and everything. So Lynden wins
- 14:25Speaker 1: that one sixty seven to thirteen. Seehom beat Lake Wid
- 14:29Speaker 1: fifty three to forty, Squalm beat Burlington is in fifty
- 14:32Speaker 1: six to forty four, and Archbishop Murphy handled and a
- 14:35Speaker 1: quarter seventy six to eighteen. So in the semi final round.
- 14:39Speaker 1: These games were played on Saturday. I was out there
- 14:42Speaker 1: for all of them. Lyndon defeated Sea Home sixty four
- 14:46Speaker 1: to twenty That stamp to their ticket to the state
- 14:49Speaker 1: and they will play in the district championship game against
- 14:51Speaker 1: Archbishop Murphy, who defeated Squalicum sixty three to twenty five.
- 14:56Speaker 1: So Seahome and Squalicum's still alive. Bellingham did lose to
- 15:01Speaker 1: Lakewood fifty one to thirty eight, so Bellingham season is done.
- 15:04Speaker 1: They won eleven games this year, they most they've won
- 15:07Speaker 1: in quite a while. So congratulations to the BayHawks and
- 15:11Speaker 1: coach McFall on a job well done. I mean it
- 15:14Speaker 1: was they played. There was a lot of fun things
- 15:17Speaker 1: to watch with them this year. And Merritt Jensen, she
- 15:22Speaker 1: finished with two hundred rebounds on the season, breaking a
- 15:25Speaker 1: school record that had been held for twenty one years.
- 15:28Speaker 1: So just a lot of good positive things and I'm
- 15:31Speaker 1: excited to see what Bellingham does next year. But Lyndon
- 15:36Speaker 1: will play Archbishop Murphy for the district championship game. Like
- 15:39Speaker 1: I said, both teams have already qualified for State and
- 15:41Speaker 1: having seen both of them in person, they are both
- 15:44Speaker 1: very qualified already for State, but now they're they're for
- 15:48Speaker 1: sure going to be in there, and yeah, they're tremendous
- 15:52Speaker 1: to see. It's weird because I saw them earlier in
- 15:54Speaker 1: the year and they looked a lot better in this game.
- 16:00Speaker 1: And you know, that's the thing is, after three months
- 16:02Speaker 1: of basketball sometimes a team can look a lot different.
- 16:05Speaker 1: And maybe I had a different perspective on it, but
- 16:07Speaker 1: they looked extremely sharp. So that's going to be a really,
- 16:11Speaker 1: really good game. I mean, Linden seems to put everybody away,
- 16:14Speaker 1: but Archbishop Murphy is a great, great team, so I
- 16:16Speaker 1: think that'll be a really good game. That championship game
- 16:20Speaker 1: will be on the nineteenth, that's Thursday night out at
- 16:23Speaker 1: five point thirty pm at Mount Vernon High School. Again,
- 16:27Speaker 1: both teams are already going to State, but you know,
- 16:30Speaker 1: a win there will get you, A win there might
- 16:33Speaker 1: get you the number one seat so going into the
- 16:36Speaker 1: state tournament. But a loss there doesn't put you too
- 16:40Speaker 1: hot too low either, so I mean it could go
- 16:42Speaker 1: either way. Seehome's still alive. They will play Anacordis at
- 16:47Speaker 1: Lynden High School on Monday night, that's tonight if you're
- 16:51Speaker 1: listening to this. And also at Linden High School, Lakewood
- 16:55Speaker 1: will play against Squalicum. That'll be at seven thirties. So
- 16:59Speaker 1: those are the two games back to back out at
- 17:01Speaker 1: Lyndon High School tonight. I know on the website it
- 17:04Speaker 1: says there's like the date above it says February seventeenth
- 17:07Speaker 1: and nineteenth, but then you put your cursor over and
- 17:10Speaker 1: it says the sixteenth. So I'm gonna trust the cursor.
- 17:14Speaker 1: I'm going to say that these games are Monday night.
- 17:16Speaker 1: So but yeah, see on squall of them both still
- 17:20Speaker 1: in it. They have to each win on Monday to
- 17:23Speaker 1: keep playing, and then if they do win, then they
- 17:26Speaker 1: will play on Wednesday. Those two teams will play on
- 17:29Speaker 1: Wednesday against each other out at Mount Vernon High School
- 17:35Speaker 1: and then they have to if the winner of that
- 17:37Speaker 1: then has to play a crossover with District five's number
- 17:39Speaker 1: three and to get into stay. So there's a lot
- 17:42Speaker 1: of stuff that still has to play out. But just
- 17:45Speaker 1: you know, stay tuned to walkompreps dot com and read
- 17:48Speaker 1: about kind of what's going on, and I'll kind of
- 17:51Speaker 1: let everybody know. But right now, three teams still in
- 17:56Speaker 1: the two way from Walkin County still alive in three.
- 18:00Speaker 1: How about Ferndale defeating Everett in a loser out game
- 18:04Speaker 1: in the district playoffs forty six to forty five. They
- 18:07Speaker 1: were down by twelve in the fourth quarter, come back
- 18:10Speaker 1: to win Kayla Washington with like a I don't know
- 18:13Speaker 1: how far it was like a twenty seven foot three
- 18:15Speaker 1: point shot to win the game by one point. And
- 18:18Speaker 1: that I mean, and that's a lose you know, that's
- 18:21Speaker 1: a win or go home game. And they defeated Everett
- 18:24Speaker 1: in that game. It was an upset on the road.
- 18:27Speaker 1: What a tremendous shot. That'll definitely that shot will definitely
- 18:30Speaker 1: be in the running for PEPSI Player of the Week.
- 18:32Speaker 1: It was outstanding. Because of that, they got to move
- 18:35Speaker 1: on and play the number two ranked Edmunds Woodway Edwinnds
- 18:39Speaker 1: Woodwag got him sixty eight thirty eight despite a great
- 18:42Speaker 1: game by Brooklyn Larrabe scored twenty two points at twenty
- 18:45Speaker 1: two of our team teams thirty eight. That drops them
- 18:49Speaker 1: into the Constellation Round where they'll play Shortcress and that
- 18:54Speaker 1: game will be out at Shortcrest High School on Wednesday
- 18:58Speaker 1: night at seven o'clock. So, uh, that's a loser out game,
- 19:03Speaker 1: So that's gonna be that's gonna be tough. And even
- 19:07Speaker 1: if they win that, they'd have to win the next
- 19:09Speaker 1: one to get to state. So right now Ferndo has
- 19:12Speaker 1: their backup against the wall. And then you know, with
- 19:15Speaker 1: their top player been out most of the year, Julia Fox,
- 19:19Speaker 1: you know, they're just they're just striving to stay alive.
- 19:22Speaker 1: And you know, they came into this tournament as the
- 19:24Speaker 1: tenth ORR eight team, ten out of twelve and they're
- 19:27Speaker 1: still in it. That's that's pretty cool. So face the
- 19:31Speaker 1: number six seeded Shortcrest. If they can win that game,
- 19:34Speaker 1: they will play again on Saturday morning at eleven forty
- 19:38Speaker 1: five at Jackson High School. So a lot of stuff
- 19:41Speaker 1: still going on there in the three A bracket. Ferndale
- 19:44Speaker 1: still alive. Now let's look at the stat leaders, brought
- 19:50Speaker 1: to you by Acceleration Driving School and Linden. Many of
- 19:53Speaker 1: you out there learning how to drive, and I strongly
- 19:55Speaker 1: advise you to check out the Acceleration Driving School and Lindon.
- 19:59Speaker 1: Give Kevin a call three six zero seven four six
- 20:02Speaker 1: four five six seven and tell them you heard about
- 20:04Speaker 1: them on the WACOM Preps podcast. It's it's all the
- 20:08Speaker 1: same names. Numbers are getting moved around a little bit.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Points per game fin departure of Lyndon twenty two point
- 20:15Speaker 1: four points per game. She leads in all the shooting
- 20:18Speaker 1: categories as well, field goal percentage sixty eight point nine percent,
- 20:21Speaker 1: free throw percentage eighty four percent, and three point percentage
- 20:25Speaker 1: forty five point six percent. Boy, the game that she
- 20:29Speaker 1: just played against see Them, she was twelve for twelve
- 20:32Speaker 1: from the field for twenty five points, including a three
- 20:35Speaker 1: pointer that was a one hundredth of her career. It's
- 20:40Speaker 1: hard to believe that she's just a junior. There's been
- 20:43Speaker 1: some tremendous girls basketball players in Walkham County and she is.
- 20:48Speaker 1: She is right up there with all of them. You know,
- 20:51Speaker 1: when it's all said and done, she will probably be
- 20:54Speaker 1: the greatest basketball player girls basketball player to ever come
- 20:58Speaker 1: out of Walkham County. But she still has some stories
- 21:02Speaker 1: to write here in her career. So just a junior's
- 21:07Speaker 1: time and done with her junior year and she's close
- 21:09Speaker 1: to fifteen hundred points as well. In a rebounds and
- 21:12Speaker 1: blocks per game, Rebecca sores sixteen rebounds a game and
- 21:16Speaker 1: three blocks per game, both leading the county and then
- 21:19Speaker 1: it assists and steals elimin Nations Elena Raebang leading the
- 21:23Speaker 1: way at five point three assists per games and Gemma
- 21:26Speaker 1: James of Elimination leading at six point three steals per game.
- 21:30Speaker 1: So all the same players numbers are just getting moved
- 21:33Speaker 1: around a little bit. Now it's time to talk about
- 21:37Speaker 1: the player of the week. And boy, you look around,
- 21:40Speaker 1: there was there was There was great individual performances in
- 21:44Speaker 1: certain games, but I was looking for like the and
- 21:47Speaker 1: they were like the entire week. I mean what Kayla
- 21:49Speaker 1: Washington was tremendous, but her next game wasn't as good.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Brooklyn Lrabye had a tremendous game against Edmunds Woodway, but
- 21:57Speaker 1: the game against Everett wasn't wasn't great rate. And I
- 22:01Speaker 1: was looking for that consistency maybe in a couple of games.
- 22:04Speaker 1: And I'm going with Peyton Mills out of London, the senior.
- 22:08Speaker 1: She is just she's on her game right now. She's
- 22:10Speaker 1: got her game face on when she's playing and doing
- 22:15Speaker 1: a lot of things, very efficient from the floor, but
- 22:17Speaker 1: also a lot of good passes, rebounds and it's just
- 22:21Speaker 1: so much fun to watch and you could tell she's
- 22:24Speaker 1: played a ton of basketball and on a mission now
- 22:28Speaker 1: for her senior year to try to bring home that
- 22:31Speaker 1: third ring in a row. So congratulations to the Linden
- 22:34Speaker 1: senior forward Peyton Mills. She is the Anytime Fitness Player
- 22:38Speaker 1: of the week. You could check out Anytime Fitness in Linden,
- 22:40Speaker 1: Linden North and Ferndale. Let's talk about some boys basketball

- 23:17Speaker 1: Them and Scadget counties. Visit them online at most Ariconstruction
- 23:21Speaker 1: dot com. That's mo ce r I Construction dot com.
- 23:27Speaker 1: All right, let's take a look at the brackets. I
- 23:30Speaker 1: am just gonna bring up three a really quickly. Ferndale
- 23:33Speaker 1: was eliminated, so they played last week and their season
- 23:36Speaker 1: is done. They had to play in a playing game
- 23:39Speaker 1: in their district bracket and they were defeated. So the
- 23:44Speaker 1: Ferndale Boys are done for the season. But boy, they
- 23:48Speaker 1: got some really really good young talent. It's it's sad
- 23:50Speaker 1: to say that, you know, Montage seeing his career is done,
- 23:53Speaker 1: and Cooper, Vincent and ca if you're Dylan, and it's
- 23:58Speaker 1: tough because it's you know, you watch those guys for
- 24:01Speaker 1: so long and then all of a sudden it's over.
- 24:03Speaker 1: And and but they've got a new they got a
- 24:06Speaker 1: young core that is really really good. So I'm excited.
- 24:11Speaker 1: I'm excited for the future of Ferndale. I think Luke
- 24:13Speaker 1: Tashane does a fantastic job as well, so I think
- 24:16Speaker 1: they're stet They're steered in the right direction right now
- 24:20Speaker 1: in the one B brackets. Very similar on their to
- 24:24Speaker 1: the girls side. Where Lemon Nation Boys won the district championship.
- 24:28Speaker 1: They did it by beating Tulayla Parrotage, their big, big rival,
- 24:33Speaker 1: and they moved on to the tri district tournament. So
- 24:35Speaker 1: it's all the same thing, like I was saying on
- 24:37Speaker 1: the girl side, where seven teams get to move on.
- 24:41Speaker 1: Lemon Nation is the top ranked team in this tournament,
- 24:44Speaker 1: so they have not played yet. They will play tomorrow night,
- 24:48Speaker 1: Tuesday night out at home. They will face Northwest Yeshiva.
- 24:53Speaker 1: This is the squad I've never heard of before. They
- 24:55Speaker 1: beat Darrington seventy one to sixty. This game will be
- 24:58Speaker 1: at seven o'clock Nation High School and in that quarter
- 25:03Speaker 1: final round. So so yeah, I have no clue what
- 25:08Speaker 1: to expect. I think elimination is just they're just you know,
- 25:12Speaker 1: they're playing so well right now. I think they're on
- 25:14Speaker 1: a like an eighteen or nineteen game winning streak and
- 25:17Speaker 1: and so I think they should take care of business here.
- 25:21Speaker 1: But you never know. If they win this game, then
- 25:23Speaker 1: they will move on and play on Thursday at a
- 25:26Speaker 1: neutral site against the winner between Summit Classical Christian and
- 25:30Speaker 1: Muckleshoote Tribal. That would be the semi final game. If
- 25:33Speaker 1: they win that one, then they will play for the
- 25:35Speaker 1: TI Tried District championship on Saturday. That'll be a Saturday. Yeah,
- 25:41Speaker 1: well we don't know. We don't know the time that
- 25:45Speaker 1: it would be played. But It would be played at
- 25:47Speaker 1: the Muckle Shoot Community Center, and boy, if you've ever
- 25:50Speaker 1: been down there, that is a fantastic venue. It looks awesome.
- 25:53Speaker 1: They do games, they show up on YouTube and they
- 25:56Speaker 1: it looks fantastic, looks professional. So I would effect them
- 26:00Speaker 1: to play to lay the pritage. This would be the
- 26:02Speaker 1: fourth time this year they would play them. They are
- 26:05Speaker 1: the one and two seeds, so that would be a
- 26:08Speaker 1: tremendous fourth match up to see and so yeah, so
- 26:13Speaker 1: we shall see there, but elimination boys definitely on a
- 26:17Speaker 1: mission to defend their onebe state championship. You look at
- 26:22Speaker 1: the one A bracket, Mount Baker was ousted by Blaine
- 26:25Speaker 1: sixty to forty three, So the Mountaineers are done for
- 26:28Speaker 1: the season. Blaine moved on to face top seeded Lennon
- 26:31Speaker 1: Christian and gave them a heck of a game, losing
- 26:33Speaker 1: by just twelve points, sixty six to fifty four. Now
- 26:36Speaker 1: the Links were without Dawson Heins, but still there's a
- 26:40Speaker 1: lot of other firepower that they have. Gunnar Dykster stepped
- 26:42Speaker 1: up and scored thirty points in that game. Blaine played great,
- 26:46Speaker 1: but they were beaten. But because they got that win
- 26:49Speaker 1: over Mount Baker. That's they got into the double elimination,
- 26:51Speaker 1: so they're still alive. On the other side, Nuksack Valley
- 26:54Speaker 1: beat Meridian sixty five to sixty one. Every single time
- 26:58Speaker 1: those two teams get together, it is a close game.
- 27:00Speaker 1: That's just the way that's been regular season, postseason, it
- 27:03Speaker 1: does not matter. And and the Pioneers came into town.
- 27:08Speaker 1: I watched the entire game and it was it was
- 27:12Speaker 1: weird because there were moments where you were like, boy, Meridian,
- 27:16Speaker 1: I think they're gonna win this one, but the Knuksac
- 27:18Speaker 1: just kind of kept doing their thing. Owen Wickers was
- 27:21Speaker 1: just making everything. I think he was like ten for
- 27:23Speaker 1: thirteen and he had just one of those career games.
- 27:27Speaker 1: And it was crazy because I from where I was standing,
- 27:30Speaker 1: I could from like I could see kind of the
- 27:33Speaker 1: crowd was in the background, and and Nuksack Valley was
- 27:38Speaker 1: playing so well, and Owen was playing so well, and
- 27:40Speaker 1: I could see his dad in the crowd just you
- 27:42Speaker 1: could see He's sitting there like so intent, and even
- 27:46Speaker 1: when Kooksick Vally would score, you could see everybody around
- 27:48Speaker 1: him would, you know, stand up and clap and everything,
- 27:51Speaker 1: and he just he just sat there with this. You know,
- 27:54Speaker 1: he was so into the game and it was so
- 27:56Speaker 1: cool to see and I'm so glad that he was
- 27:57Speaker 1: able to see him play because he hasn't had been
- 28:00Speaker 1: able to see him too much this year coaching the
- 28:01Speaker 1: girls team obviously, So they just got done with that
- 28:05Speaker 1: win against Mount Baker. So they packed up and drove
- 28:08Speaker 1: out to Meridian High School just like many of us did,
- 28:10Speaker 1: and got to be in attendance to watch that game.
- 28:13Speaker 1: So pretty cool deal there Meridians appears Prozowski. My goodness,
- 28:19Speaker 1: what a game he had. He led his team in
- 28:21Speaker 1: all five categories points, rebounds, assists, seals, and blocks. He
- 28:25Speaker 1: had a triple double, did so much for his team,
- 28:28Speaker 1: but they were on the losing side of things and
- 28:31Speaker 1: Niksack Valley moved on and they will face Lynden Christian
- 28:36Speaker 1: for the district championship game. That will be on Tuesday
- 28:40Speaker 1: night out at Linden High School at seven point fifteen,
- 28:44Speaker 1: so be ready for that. One winner will go to state.
- 28:48Speaker 1: Loser is still alive, but the winner does go to state.
- 28:52Speaker 1: On the twentieth, that is Friday night, Blaine and Meridian
- 28:56Speaker 1: will play a loser out game out at Linden High school.
- 28:59Speaker 1: That'll be at seven fifteen, and the winner of that
- 29:02Speaker 1: one will face the loser of the district championship game. Again,
- 29:05Speaker 1: very much like on the the girls side, this will
- 29:09Speaker 1: be a two fifty pm afternoon game out at Linden
- 29:15Speaker 1: High School the very next day. So yeah, it's a
- 29:19Speaker 1: winner to state loser out. So it's it's a yeah,
- 29:23Speaker 1: it's gonna be it's gonna be something. But and that
- 29:26Speaker 1: Saturday out at London always was always so fun. There's
- 29:29Speaker 1: just always a bunch of games and it's just you know,
- 29:31Speaker 1: a lot of you know, winner to state loser out
- 29:33Speaker 1: kind of games, and it's like, oh man, this is
- 29:35Speaker 1: where it gets. This is where you sit on the
- 29:38Speaker 1: edge of your seat, you know, and it's it's it's fantastic,
- 29:42Speaker 1: it's such it's such great basketball. So that's kind of
- 29:45Speaker 1: how it looks right now. On the one A boys bracket.
- 29:48Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot of fun this week to
- 29:50Speaker 1: see how that continues. In the two A boys bracket,
- 29:54Speaker 1: Bellingham defeated Barry'sville Pilchuck sixty six to fifty nine to
- 29:58Speaker 1: end the Tomahawks season. Move on to take on Linden,
- 30:01Speaker 1: and I tell you what they were given Linden a
- 30:03Speaker 1: heck of a game for the first quarter and a half,
- 30:06Speaker 1: a lot of actually the first half. Linden played very
- 30:08Speaker 1: well in the second half to put them away beat
- 30:11Speaker 1: him eighty seven to sixty one. Seahome also defeated Archibishop
- 30:15Speaker 1: Murphy seventy three to fifty six behind a huge fourth quarter,
- 30:18Speaker 1: and Anachordus just got by Squalicum sixty two to fifty
- 30:21Speaker 1: nine in overtime. Great great performance by Squalicum, just coming
- 30:26Speaker 1: up short, which met Seahome and Anachordis in the semi finals,
- 30:31Speaker 1: and Lakewood and Linden. Anacordus defeated Seahome sixty six to
- 30:35Speaker 1: fifty seven, although the nwc Athletics site says sixty to
- 30:40Speaker 1: fifty seven, but I give you my word it was
- 30:43Speaker 1: sixty six to fifty seven. And Linden defeated Lakewood sixty
- 30:47Speaker 1: one to forty six. So Lindon stamped their ticket to
- 30:52Speaker 1: go back to the state tournament. Which is funny because
- 30:54Speaker 1: there was a lot of talk this year about maybe
- 30:58Speaker 1: Linden won't go to State or this than that, and
- 31:00Speaker 1: it's like, I remember, I don't know exactly what year
- 31:04Speaker 1: it was, it was I don't know if I can't
- 31:06Speaker 1: remember if it was before I think it was before
- 31:08Speaker 1: COVID and they went to stay as like the sixth seed,
- 31:11Speaker 1: and I thought, it doesn't matter, they're Linden. They just
- 31:14Speaker 1: there's just something about them. They're so well coached. Even
- 31:17Speaker 1: if they have troubles in the beginning of the year,
- 31:19Speaker 1: they fixed. They kind of work through everything, and they
- 31:22Speaker 1: they're always always at their best once it comes to
- 31:25Speaker 1: you know, mid mid February, so so congratulations. They will
- 31:30Speaker 1: be taking on Anachordus for the district championship game. That
- 31:34Speaker 1: will be Thursday night out at Mount Vernon seven thirty
- 31:37Speaker 1: High School. It's gonna be an awesome game. But Seahom
- 31:41Speaker 1: is still alive, as is Squalicum. Squalkum defeated Archbishop Murphy
- 31:45Speaker 1: fifty four to fifty and that was a crazy game.
- 31:48Speaker 1: So Squalicum's played two district games and both of them
- 31:52Speaker 1: have gone into overtime. So there are like the Cardiac kids.
- 31:55Speaker 1: They lost that one to Anachordus. They beat Archbishop Murphy,
- 31:59Speaker 1: so Squalicum is still alive. They are playing tonight at
- 32:02Speaker 1: Mount Vernon High School at five thirty against Lakewood. That's
- 32:06Speaker 1: a loser out game. That should be a great game
- 32:08Speaker 1: with a lot of running back and forth to very
- 32:11Speaker 1: similar teams. There. That's a game where I think Orion
- 32:14Speaker 1: Gramberg Kittle could take advantage of his size because Lakewood
- 32:17Speaker 1: is not the tallest team and ogk is six foot five,
- 32:21Speaker 1: and I think that he can if he can use
- 32:24Speaker 1: that to his advantage and stand tall and get rebounds
- 32:28Speaker 1: and put backs and different things like that, that could
- 32:31Speaker 1: really be helpful for the storm Bellingham, their season came
- 32:35Speaker 1: to an end at nine and fourteen. They lost to
- 32:37Speaker 1: Burlington Edison. This has sixty nine to fifty four. No,
- 32:41Speaker 1: it was sixty nine and sixty four, and yeah, so
- 32:46Speaker 1: Burlington defeats Bellingham. The BayHawks are done for the year.
- 32:49Speaker 1: Burlington now will play Seahome. That will be that second
- 32:53Speaker 1: game tonight out at Mount Vernon High School. That game
- 32:55Speaker 1: will start at seven to thirty again in a loser
- 32:58Speaker 1: out game. So the winners of those two games will
- 33:04Speaker 1: face each other at Mount Vernon High School on Wednesday
- 33:09Speaker 1: at seven point thirty. So and then they have to
- 33:11Speaker 1: win that one to play in a district crossover to
- 33:14Speaker 1: get to state. So there's still some work to be
- 33:15Speaker 1: done for squalkam and see home, see what can happen there.
- 33:20Speaker 1: Lyndon of course, has already stamped their ticket to the
- 33:23Speaker 1: state tournament as they will play for the district championship
- 33:26Speaker 1: game on Thursday of the nineteenth, So woo. A lot
- 33:31Speaker 1: of stuff going on there as well. Like I said,
- 33:33Speaker 1: I mean Lynden and Mount Vernon, right, you're gonna be
- 33:36Speaker 1: going back and forth to those gyms at least I
- 33:38Speaker 1: will be every single night this week. And it's it's
- 33:43Speaker 1: such a it's just such a fun time. I just
- 33:46Speaker 1: and you know, I don't leave the county too often,
- 33:48Speaker 1: but I do love going into Mount Vernon's gym. So
- 33:51Speaker 1: many great, great, great memories both you know, it's just
- 33:55Speaker 1: as a fan, as a really young reporter at the
- 33:59Speaker 1: Bellingham Harold Know twenty five, twenty six years ago, uh,
- 34:03Speaker 1: covering this tournament, it's just or you know, all sorts
- 34:06Speaker 1: of these tournaments, the one as the two A's, and
- 34:08Speaker 1: it's just it's so much fun. So I'm glad that
- 34:11Speaker 1: I can still do it. I'm glad I still enjoy it. Yeah,
- 34:16Speaker 1: it's so fun. And now I always I always meet
- 34:19Speaker 1: somebody that I you know, that comes up and introduces
- 34:22Speaker 1: themselves and appreciates what I do. Or I'll see someone
- 34:25Speaker 1: I haven't seen in twenty years and that's always fun too,
- 34:28Speaker 1: and it's just, uh, it's my happy place and so
- 34:31Speaker 1: I'm so glad I'm able to do this, and uh,
- 34:34Speaker 1: it's fantastic. Let's take a look at the stat leaders again,
- 34:37Speaker 1: brought to you by Acceleration Driving School in London. And
- 34:42Speaker 1: if you want to learn how to drive the right way,
- 34:44Speaker 1: give Kevin a call three six zero seven four six
- 34:47Speaker 1: four five six seven. Tell them you heard about them
- 34:49Speaker 1: on the Walk the Preps podcast. That's the Acceleration Driving
- 34:52Speaker 1: School in London. And we do have some new names
- 34:56Speaker 1: on the stat leaders. One of them right away is
- 34:58Speaker 1: the points per game. Joe Harward of Bellingham has taken over,
- 35:02Speaker 1: averaging twenty two point six points per game. He had
- 35:05Speaker 1: a huge outburst against Lyndon where he scored thirty eight points.
- 35:11Speaker 1: I think he was like sixteen for twenty from the
- 35:13Speaker 1: field too. He's he knows how to get his shot.
- 35:16Speaker 1: It's unfortunate that their season is done now, but what
- 35:22Speaker 1: a year he had for his senior year, averaging twenty
- 35:24Speaker 1: two point six points per game. In the one year
- 35:28Speaker 1: field goal percentage still Chasewaight Keller of Leimination sixty eight
- 35:32Speaker 1: point seven percent. Free throw percentage is still Dawson Heinz
- 35:35Speaker 1: at Lindon Christian eighty six point five percent. Three point percentage.
- 35:39Speaker 1: This one's been jumping around all year. This is the
- 35:41Speaker 1: one that I think, I think every single week it's
- 35:44Speaker 1: been a different person, and the people have come back
- 35:46Speaker 1: and dropped it and then come back and now back
- 35:50Speaker 1: in there is Blake Elson of Squalic him forty two
- 35:52Speaker 1: point two percent. Yeah, he's still got some work to
- 35:57Speaker 1: do in these district playoffs, and I think that he
- 35:59Speaker 1: wants to add, you know, a little higher percentage for
- 36:02Speaker 1: his three point percentage, although that's pretty darn high forty
- 36:04Speaker 1: two point two percent. Rebounds, all these all these other
- 36:08Speaker 1: ones are all the same. Rebounds per game Chasewake Keller
- 36:10Speaker 1: of Limination eleven point nine, assists per game still, Nolan
- 36:14Speaker 1: Wright of Seahome at six point eight, steals per game
- 36:17Speaker 1: is still, Dyson Edwards of Limination at three point seven,
- 36:20Speaker 1: and blocks per game is still Caden Veldman of Lennon
- 36:23Speaker 1: Christian at two point nine. And now it's time to
- 36:27Speaker 1: look at the anytime Fitness Player of the Week. You know,
- 36:31Speaker 1: I was really seriously considering Pierce Berezowski just because of
- 36:36Speaker 1: what he did in that game. I usually don't give
- 36:37Speaker 1: it to players, you know, that that do not win
- 36:42Speaker 1: during the week, but he played so well I didn't
- 36:45Speaker 1: I was thinking of owhen Wickers as well Gunnardikstra, but
- 36:50Speaker 1: all these guys, they just they played one game, and
- 36:52Speaker 1: it's hard for me to sometimes justify just one game.
- 36:56Speaker 1: And when I looked at everything and going back to state,
- 36:59Speaker 1: I'm going with spend Sir Adams of Lindon. He's had
- 37:01Speaker 1: he had two big games this week, neared triple doubles
- 37:05Speaker 1: in both of them. And it's what's fun about watching
- 37:09Speaker 1: him play is as like last year, you know, he
- 37:13Speaker 1: was kind of he was kind of like that second
- 37:18Speaker 1: option sometimes third option, a guy that was a tall
- 37:22Speaker 1: kid that could shoot it from the outside and and
- 37:26Speaker 1: you could rely on twelve to fourteen points. And this
- 37:28Speaker 1: year it's different. He he plays with he plays with
- 37:33Speaker 1: the mentality of someone that's on a mission. He is
- 37:37Speaker 1: he has scoring points, he was grabbing rebounds, he's playing
- 37:40Speaker 1: more inside, he's he's delivering great passes, he's he's way
- 37:43Speaker 1: up there on assists now and he's still shooting a
- 37:46Speaker 1: hYP percentage and playing through his shoulder injury, and it's
- 37:48Speaker 1: just like, holy cow, this guy is so fun to watch,
- 37:52Speaker 1: especially when you're down there close on the baseline and
- 37:55Speaker 1: and you know, you see the effort that he's putting
- 37:57Speaker 1: in on every single play. So I think he's been
- 38:00Speaker 1: having a great tournament so far. He's got them back
- 38:02Speaker 1: to the state tournament. There's still work to be done
- 38:04Speaker 1: here in the district championship game or against and of
- 38:07Speaker 1: Coortus at Mount Vernon High School. So congratulations to the
- 38:11Speaker 1: Linden senior Spencer Adams. I'm being named Anytime Fitness Player

- 38:32Speaker 1: you know, it's that crazy busy time of the year
- 38:35Speaker 1: and where the days and the weeks fly by, and
- 38:39Speaker 1: I'm sitting here going, oh man, I have to do
- 38:41Speaker 1: my taxes. I got to do this. I got to
- 38:44Speaker 1: make sure, you know, I got everything set for State
- 38:46Speaker 1: I've all got got my hotel and everything's set for state,
- 38:49Speaker 1: so that's good. And I'm always fearful that I'm going
- 38:53Speaker 1: to miss something. I'm looking around. I'm sitting at my
