- 0:53Speaker 1: we do, we talk about Stauffer Insurance.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Give them a call at 360-746-8803.

- 1:09Speaker 1: to help. Boy, over this past week, they had the
- 1:12Speaker 1: big race there, the Northwest Conference Championships. And all the
- 1:17Speaker 1: Northwest Conference teams meeting up at Civic Stadium. That was
- 1:23Speaker 1: on Wednesday. It's always an awesome sight to see. The
- 1:25Speaker 1: weather was great.
- 1:28Speaker 2: Great, great times.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Obviously, we have a lot of runners and both boys
- 1:31Speaker 1: and girls that are going to make some noise at state.
- 1:34Speaker 1: And so that was really cool to see. Again, Sehome
- 1:37Speaker 1: sweeping girls and boys for the conference championships. In girls,
- 1:42Speaker 1: Bellingham finished second, Meridian third. And in boys, Meridian finished second,
- 1:47Speaker 1: Bellingham third. Kind of the same teams as usual. When
- 1:51Speaker 1: you look at the top times, look at the girls' side.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Finishing in first place was Sloane Clines of Sehome in
- 1:58Speaker 1: 18 minutes, 2.7 seconds. Right behind her was her teammate,
- 2:02Speaker 1: a tenth of a second behind, Kirsten Ludeman, Samantha Knipp
- 2:06Speaker 1: of Sehome in third, Lil Desler of Sehome in fourth.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Really cool to see them in their final race with
- 2:13Speaker 1: all four of them together in Whatcom County, their final
- 2:16Speaker 1: race at Civic Stadium, their home turf.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Yeah, just amazing, amazing to see.
- 2:25Speaker 1: And, you know, I got some I wanted to try
- 2:29Speaker 1: to get a picture with all of them together because
- 2:32Speaker 1: it was quite a moment, but I didn't really want
- 2:36Speaker 1: to interrupt the moment either at the same time. I
- 2:40Speaker 1: got a good picture of all of them hugging at
- 2:42Speaker 1: the finish line and all four of them finishing basically
- 2:47Speaker 1: 40 seconds ahead of the next Whatcom County racer, that is,
- 2:52Speaker 1: which was Lane Dixon of Meridian. She finished in sixth place.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Audrey Blue of Squalicum in seventh place. Jewel Bringelson of
- 2:59Speaker 1: Sehome in 8th, and Nora Alexander of Bellingham in 10th.
- 3:03Speaker 1: So those are the Whatcom County runners that finished in
- 3:05Speaker 1: the top 10. On the boys' side, Ruben Taveldi of Meridian,
- 3:11Speaker 1: 10 seconds ahead of his brother to win the Northwest
- 3:15Speaker 1: Conference Championship in a time of 15 minutes, 27.9 seconds.
- 3:20Speaker 1: His brother, Judah Taveldi, finished in second, 15 minutes, 37.8 seconds.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Judson Barrett of Sehome in 3rd place. Luke Scouten of
- 3:28Speaker 1: Linden in fourth, Colton Valentine of Meridian in sixth, Jack
- 3:33Speaker 1: Stoddard of Bellingham in seventh, Taylor Rush of Squalicum in eighth,
- 3:37Speaker 1: and Tarver May of Bellingham finished in ninth. There's going
- 3:41Speaker 1: to be a lot of those runners. You'll hear those
- 3:43Speaker 1: same names going forward as we get to closer to
- 3:46Speaker 1: the state race. And, and, uh, boy, it's, there's, uh,
- 3:51Speaker 1: Whatcom County will have some good times. See home boys
- 3:54Speaker 1: and girls, always one of the favorites in.
- 3:56Speaker 2: Uh, the overall at-state.
- 4:00Speaker 1: So the Stauffer Insurance Runner of the Week, and this
- 4:05Speaker 1: one was down to the very final tenth of a
- 4:09Speaker 1: second there as the two teammates were running together, but
- 4:13Speaker 1: Sloane Clines of Sehome did finish in first place, so
- 4:17Speaker 1: she will win the Stauffer Insurance Runner of the Week.
- 4:20Speaker 2: So congratulations to her.

- 4:46Speaker 1: These same times here as the leaders, so we'll look
- 4:49Speaker 1: at them really quickly here in the 200 Medley Relay.
- 4:52Speaker 1: The Squalicum time of Sammy Fury, Soleil Rubido, Jazzy Nelson,
- 4:56Speaker 1: and Brooke Staduhar. They do have the top time right now,
- 5:00Speaker 1: 2 minutes, 7.58 seconds.
- 5:02Speaker 2: And in 200.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Freestyle relay, Elsa Ethelbov-Seaholm still holding the top time there,
- 5:07Speaker 1: 2 minutes, 5 seconds,. 42. 200 individual medley, it is
- 5:13Speaker 1: Jazzy Nelson of Squalicum, who's 8 seconds ahead of Bellingham's
- 5:17Speaker 1: Jordan Ebeling. In the 50 freestyle, Jasmine Garcia of Bellingham,
- 5:22Speaker 1: only um swimmer this year to finish that race in
- 5:26Speaker 1: under 27 seconds that is moving um i've i've talked
- 5:31Speaker 1: about it before i've seen some really good racers in
- 5:33Speaker 1: that i think i think i've seen her do that
- 5:36Speaker 1: um i've seen soleil rubido in that race and it
- 5:41Speaker 1: is it's crazy when you see how fast they are
- 5:43Speaker 1: going it's uh Yeah, it's like.
- 5:48Speaker 2: A fisherman caught them and they're reeling them in. They're
- 5:50Speaker 2: just moving, right? It goes fast. And it makes for
- 5:54Speaker 2: a fast race.
- 5:55Speaker 1: In diving, Fiona Runnels of Sehome has the best score
- 6:01Speaker 1: of 174.95. That is over six dives. And the 100
- 6:06Speaker 1: Butterfly talked about that race last week. The incredible race
- 6:10Speaker 1: between Jazzy Nelson of Squalicum and Jasmine Garcia of Bellingham.
- 6:14Speaker 1: They were finished basically less than two-tenths of a second
- 6:17Speaker 1: apart from each other. They have the two fastest times.
- 6:20Speaker 1: In the 100 freestyle, it's Jasmine Garcia of Bellingham, the
- 6:24Speaker 1: only one with a time under a minute. She's actually
- 6:27Speaker 1: at 58.35 seconds. In the 500 freestyle, the long distance,
- 6:32Speaker 1: the marathon, basically, it's Elsa Ethelbaugh of Sehome, five minutes, 36.63 seconds.
- 6:39Speaker 1: In the 200 freestyle relay, it's the Bellingham team of
- 6:42Speaker 1: Amanda Buck, Bronwyn Wilkins, Jordan Ebeling, and Jasmine Garcia at
- 6:47Speaker 1: a minute 53.87. It's so crazy, too, because Bellingham, Seaholm, Squalicum,
- 6:54Speaker 1: and Linden are all basically within one second of each other.
- 6:57Speaker 2: That is awesome.
- 6:59Speaker 1: And, you know, I don't know what the rest of
- 7:01Speaker 1: the state looks like, but... we're coming for you in
- 7:05Speaker 1: that 200 freestyle relay.
- 7:07Speaker 2: So who knows?
- 7:09Speaker 1: I mean, wouldn't that be great if it was like
- 7:10Speaker 1: a clean sweep at state with those four teams?
- 7:14Speaker 2: That would be awesome.
- 7:15Speaker 1: You know, the state qualifying time is a minute 49
- 7:18Speaker 1: and no one's hit that yet. So that tells me
- 7:21Speaker 1: that there's probably some teams that.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Are hitting that.
- 7:25Speaker 1: So they have the work cut out for them, but
- 7:26Speaker 1: I'd love seeing how close they all are at this
- 7:29Speaker 1: point of the year. The 100 backstroke, Amanda Buck of Bellingham,
- 7:34Speaker 1: Barely edging out Jazzy Nelson of Squalicum by a tenth
- 7:37Speaker 1: of a second. In the 100 breaststroke, it's Soleil Rubidoux
- 7:41Speaker 1: of Squalicum, a second and a half faster than Rahagare
- 7:44Speaker 1: of Sehome. And in the 400 freestyle relay, it's the
- 7:48Speaker 1: Squalicum team of Jazzy Nelson, Ellie Hanslick, Sammy Fury, and
- 7:52Speaker 1: Soleil Rubidoux.
- 7:54Speaker 2: They are four and a half.
- 7:55Speaker 1: Seconds faster than the Bellingham team. So, yeah, congratulations to
- 8:00Speaker 1: all of them. We got some postseason swimming around the
- 8:03Speaker 1: corner and got to.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Get ready for that. And, boy, the season just flies by.
- 8:09Speaker 1: I mean, it flies by like Jasmine Garcia flies in
- 8:14Speaker 1: the 500 freestyle. Yeah, it flies like the 100 butterfly.
- 8:19Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, so enough puns
- 8:23Speaker 1: for me. That's a Jazzy Nelson race there. But, yeah,
- 8:28Speaker 1: it does go by really, really fast. So I'm glad
- 8:32Speaker 1: to catch it when I can. And, boy, there's a
- 8:35Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on at this time of the year,
- 8:38Speaker 1: including all the foliage outside, if you recognize that.
- 8:42Speaker 2: I just happened to see it once.
- 8:43Speaker 1: I just walk outside, and there's leaves all over my driveway.
- 8:46Speaker 2: And I'm like, when did this happen? It's crazy how
- 8:49Speaker 2: fast it happens. but it does.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Let's move on to girls soccer, which is sponsored by
- 8:55Speaker 1: North County Alliance FC. Go to ncaliancefc.com to check them

- 9:15Speaker 1: little kids that had their jerseys on and it had
- 9:18Speaker 1: a It had a North County Alliance.
- 9:21Speaker 2: FC patch on it.
- 9:22Speaker 1: I think I wanted to take a picture of it,
- 9:25Speaker 1: but I didn't want to take a picture of little kids.
- 9:26Speaker 2: I just didn't think that would be a good look.
- 9:29Speaker 1: But I just wanted to show that that's there.
- 9:33Speaker 2: It's just so cool that you see that everywhere.
- 9:35Speaker 1: So I'm really proud that they're a sponsor and it
- 9:38Speaker 1: makes me feel really, really good.
- 9:40Speaker 2: Let's take a look at what.
- 9:41Speaker 1: Happened around the county this week. On Tuesday, we'll start
- 9:46Speaker 1: off there. Meridian beat Blaine 4-3. Freshman Ella Kratsoff finished
- 9:51Speaker 1: with a hat trick, and the Trojans needed every last
- 9:54Speaker 1: one of those goals as the border rights came back
- 9:56Speaker 1: from four to one to make it interesting in the
- 9:59Speaker 1: final minutes. Meridian also received a goal from Sophia Guzman
- 10:02Speaker 1: and assists from Lily Meza and Mila Krapsoff. Blaine's Rudy
- 10:06Speaker 1: Bellarmineau scored two goals and Kate Koresky also scored for
- 10:10Speaker 1: the border rights. Also, the Bayhawks picked up another narrow
- 10:13Speaker 1: win to remain unbeaten on the season. against Squalicum 1-0
- 10:17Speaker 1: as Stella Eltrich assisted Greta Ross on the lone goal
- 10:20Speaker 1: of the game. Linda Christian defeated Nooksack Valley 5-0 as
- 10:25Speaker 1: the Lynx executed their game plan to perfection and walked
- 10:28Speaker 1: away with a clean sheet win over the visiting Pioneers.
- 10:31Speaker 1: Kaylin Hinton led the way with a pair of goals,
- 10:34Speaker 1: while Quinn Hovde and Addie Mullendyke each had a goal
- 10:37Speaker 1: and an assist to lead Linda Christian. Elsie also received
- 10:40Speaker 1: a goal from Lexi Yoon. and assists from Josie Van Corbach,
- 10:44Speaker 1: Megan Preggeman, and Allie Molendyk. Seaholm all over Sultan 8-0
- 10:50Speaker 1: as the Mariners received a hat-trick from Gwen Brown as
- 10:52Speaker 1: they cruised to victory on the road against the Turks.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Amaya Reid also scored a goal and had a pair
- 10:58Speaker 1: of assists off of corner kicks. Margo Smith scored twice,
- 11:01Speaker 1: and Vivian Moss had two assists, while Kayla Reeves and
- 11:04Speaker 1: Joan Downing also scored, and other assists came from Briley Valiant,
- 11:09Speaker 1: Elysian Borrell, and Addie Hayes. Ferndale, they beat Oak Harbor
- 11:14Speaker 1: 6-0 as the Golden Eagles looked sharp on the road
- 11:17Speaker 1: as they picked up their 11th win in a row.
- 11:19Speaker 1: Hannah Wynn led the offensive tack with two goals, while
- 11:22Speaker 1: Ferndale also received goals from Lexi McDougal, Mia Collins, Liv Luna,
- 11:27Speaker 1: and Sarah Stoner. And then Anna Cordes got the best
- 11:29Speaker 1: of Linden 8-3 as the Lions scored first on the
- 11:32Speaker 1: road when Lena Vandermeer had a goal, but the Seahawks
- 11:35Speaker 1: came back with a vengeance before Linden's Ella Adkisson and
- 11:39Speaker 1: Avery Francis scored late goals. So that's what happened on Tuesday.
- 11:44Speaker 1: On Thursday, all the teams were back in action again
- 11:48Speaker 1: as Squalicum and Linden tied one-to-one on senior night out
- 11:52Speaker 1: at Benderfields. The Lions defended their home turf well and
- 11:55Speaker 1: came away with a tie against the Storm. Lena Vandermeer
- 11:58Speaker 1: scored Linden's lone goal on an assist from Kylie McVie.
- 12:02Speaker 1: And Squalicum's goal came from Addie Wilson, her 16th on
- 12:05Speaker 1: the season. as it was assisted by Rylan Rockefeller. Bellingham
- 12:10Speaker 1: beat Burlington Edison 2-0 as the Bayhawks claimed their Northwest
- 12:13Speaker 1: Conference leading 14th win of the season. And they did
- 12:17Speaker 1: it on the road against the Tigers behind a pair
- 12:19Speaker 1: of goals from Sophia Dion. Assists came by way of
- 12:23Speaker 1: Jane Goldsberry and Stella Eltrich.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Lyndon Christian and.
- 12:27Speaker 1: Meridian, they played to a 1-1 tie in a much
- 12:29Speaker 1: anticipated rematch from earlier in the season as the two
- 12:32Speaker 1: top 1A teams in Northwest Conference played each other. Trojan
- 12:36Speaker 1: freshman Ella Kravtsov scored her 27th goal of the season,
- 12:40Speaker 1: and it was assisted by Les Lane. The Lynx also got,
- 12:43Speaker 1: the Lynx got a goal. The Lynx goal, I should say,
- 12:46Speaker 1: was a header from Quinn Hovde on a cross from
- 12:50Speaker 1: Megan Preggeman. Blaine played a game down south on the
- 12:54Speaker 1: road in a non-conference game against 4A Mariner. and came
- 13:00Speaker 1: away with the win against the Marauders behind goals from
- 13:04Speaker 1: Nevaeh Zadik and Kate Koresky. Also, Nooksack Valley beat Mount
- 13:08Speaker 1: Baker 4-1. The Pioneers picked up the big home win
- 13:12Speaker 1: behind two goals from Nevaeh Corona and two assists from
- 13:15Speaker 1: Peyton Duque. Nooksack Valley also received goals from Gretchen Elmendorf
- 13:19Speaker 1: and Lisette Flores, and an assist from Chloe Mora. The
- 13:23Speaker 1: Mountaineer goal came on a penalty kick from Kaylin Neely.
- 13:27Speaker 1: Seaholm beat Anacortes 4-2 as the Mariners grabbed the home
- 13:30Speaker 1: win against the Seahawks behind a four-goal performance from Amaya Reid.
- 13:35Speaker 1: Vivian Moss assisted on a pair of goals, which leaves
- 13:38Speaker 1: her with a Whatcom County leading 11 on the season.
- 13:41Speaker 1: Seren Connell had an assist for Seaholm, which got great
- 13:44Speaker 1: play in the center of the field from Ayla Woodworth,
- 13:46Speaker 1: Maya Jorgensen, and Macy Alexander. Also, Ferndale beat Mount Vernon
- 13:50Speaker 1: 2-0 as sophomore Mia Collins scored both Golden Eagles goals
- 13:54Speaker 1: as Ferndale rode its winning streak to 12 games after
- 13:57Speaker 1: the home win. Assists came from Liv Luna and Audrey Callen.
- 14:01Speaker 1: So that was on Thursday. Then on Saturday, there was
- 14:04Speaker 1: a few games as well as Nooksack Valley and Blaine
- 14:07Speaker 1: played a make-up game out at Sid Lambert Field. Nooksack
- 14:10Speaker 1: Valley came away with a 2-1 win on goals from
- 14:13Speaker 1: Nevaeh Corona and Jessica Kingma. They kind of came pretty
- 14:16Speaker 1: close to each other, about five minutes apart from each other.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Chloe Mora had an assist. Blaine's goal came from Nevaeh Zadik,
- 14:23Speaker 1: but Nooksack Valley still picked up the big win, and
- 14:27Speaker 1: that win basically made it so they did not have.
- 14:30Speaker 2: To play in the play-in game.
- 14:31Speaker 1: It looks like Blaine and Mount Baker will be playing
- 14:34Speaker 1: in that, and we'll talk about that in about that
- 14:36Speaker 1: 1A tournament coming up here pretty soon. Also on Saturday,
- 14:40Speaker 1: Ferndale went on the road and beat Cedar Woolley 7-0.
- 14:43Speaker 1: Mia Collins and Bryn Bisson each had two goals and
- 14:46Speaker 1: an assist to lead the offense, while Josie McClellan had
- 14:49Speaker 1: two assists.
- 14:51Speaker 2: And a goal.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Hannah Wynn and Adelaide Beach both each had a goal,
- 14:55Speaker 1: and Kenzie Dawson got an assist from her goalkeeper position,
- 14:58Speaker 1: and Nyla Conda also had an assist as Ferndale still
- 15:07Speaker 1: remains unbeaten in Northwest Conference play. So let's take a
- 15:13Speaker 1: look at the standings now, and in the 1A... Meridian
- 15:20Speaker 1: 6-1-1 in league play. Lyndon Christian 5-1-1. And Nooksack Valley
- 15:26Speaker 1: 4-3 as Blaine and Mount Baker each sit at 1-6
- 15:30Speaker 1: in conference play. Both of their wins were against each other.
- 15:33Speaker 2: So that's in the 1A.
- 15:35Speaker 1: In 2A, Bellingham leading the way with 38 points with
- 15:38Speaker 1: a 12-0-2 record. Seaholm in second with being 10-2-2. Anacortes third.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Squalicum in fourth. They're 7-4-3 in conference play. And Linden
- 15:49Speaker 1: is in sixth place, 4-9-1. And like I said earlier,
- 15:53Speaker 1: in 3A, Ferndale undefeated on the year there, 8-0, averaging
- 15:57Speaker 1: almost four goals a game in conference play and allowing
- 16:00Speaker 1: less than a half a goal a game in conference play.
- 16:03Speaker 1: So they are playing at a great.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Clip right now.
- 16:09Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the statistical leaders now. In goals,
- 16:14Speaker 1: let's see here. We can do a top 10 here.
- 16:16Speaker 1: We have a two-way tie for ninth place. Amaya Reed
- 16:18Speaker 1: of Sehome and Addie Mullendyke of Linden Christian each have
- 16:21Speaker 1: 10 goals, booting their way to 11 goals on the year.
- 16:26Speaker 1: Macy Kamanga of Mount Baker and Kayla Reeves of Sehome
- 16:29Speaker 1: each have 11. We have another tie for fifth place
- 16:32Speaker 1: with 13 goals on the year. Sophia Dion of Bellingham
- 16:35Speaker 1: and Luz Lane of Meridian. And then a three-way tie
- 16:38Speaker 1: for second place with 16 goals on the year. Kaylin
- 16:41Speaker 1: Hinton of Linden Christian. Mia Collins of Ferndale and Addie
- 16:45Speaker 1: Wilson of Squalicum all have 16 goals. And, of course,
- 16:48Speaker 1: leading the way is Ella Kratsoff of Meridian. She has
- 16:50Speaker 1: 27 goals on the year.
- 16:53Speaker 2: Incredible.
- 16:54Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the assist leaders. And we
- 16:56Speaker 1: have a handful of players with six assists. Josie McClellan
- 17:00Speaker 1: of Ferndale, Ella Kratsoff of Meridian, Siri Hoagland of Squalicum,

- 18:51Speaker 1: was there for this and on senior night the storm
- 18:53Speaker 1: volleyball team sang the national anthem, and then took the
- 18:58Speaker 1: court against the visiting Bayhawks, which I thought was really,
- 19:00Speaker 1: really cool. Squalicum won the first two sets pretty easily,
- 19:04Speaker 1: but Bellingham gave the Storm everything they could handle, but
- 19:08Speaker 1: Squalicum eventually prevailed 29-27 in that third set there. Sehome
- 19:13Speaker 1: beat Sultan 3-0, and after winning the first two sets
- 19:18Speaker 1: at home against the Turks, the Mariners accomplished something rarely
- 19:21Speaker 1: seen in volleyball history, It could be compared to pitching
- 19:24Speaker 1: a perfect game in baseball. Solden began the third set
- 19:27Speaker 1: with a serve, and after a few volleys, Sehome got
- 19:30Speaker 1: the point with a kill from Brooklyn Flamer. That was
- 19:33Speaker 1: when junior Radler Rosellison took the ball and went to
- 19:36Speaker 1: the service line. She lived there until the final whistle
- 19:39Speaker 1: blew as she served her way through a perfect 25-0 set.
- 19:45Speaker 1: An unimaginable feat by Rosellazan, who picked up a career-high
- 19:50Speaker 1: 13 aces on the way as the Mariners notched another
- 19:54Speaker 1: one in the win column.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Incredible.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Meridian beat Blaine 3-0, and they took care of business there,
- 20:00Speaker 1: winning 25-8, 25-11, and 25-16. Lyndon Christian beat Nooksack Valley
- 20:02Speaker 1: also 3-0. That was all on Monday night. On Wednesday, Tuesday,
- 20:10Speaker 1: there was only two matches as Linden beat Anacortes 3-0
- 20:15Speaker 1: and Ferndale beat Cedro Woolley in three straight sets as well.
- 20:19Speaker 1: Finley Parcher had another great game with 17 kills and
- 20:22Speaker 1: five aces to lead Linden past Anacortes. And out there
- 20:28Speaker 1: on the road at Cedro Woolley, Taya Dubé led the
- 20:31Speaker 1: offense with 16 kills and 14 digs. She also posted
- 20:35Speaker 1: three aces. And Brooklyn Larrabee also had another huge game,
- 20:39Speaker 1: 33 assists, five digs, four aces, a pair of kills. And,
- 20:44Speaker 1: and that was a, they were playing without Svetlana Badak
- 20:50Speaker 1: in that one. So that was, you know, and she's
- 20:52Speaker 1: been slowly coming back. I'm hoping she'll be okay for
- 20:55Speaker 1: the post season. I think she will be, but they
- 20:59Speaker 1: had to make a few changes to their lineup there,
- 21:01Speaker 1: but still picking up wins on the way. On Wednesday,
- 21:05Speaker 1: Lyndon Christian beat Meridian in a thrilling 3-0 match. Lyndon
- 21:08Speaker 1: Christian did pretty well to open up winning 25-13, but
- 21:12Speaker 1: then they had to claw their way back from being
- 21:14Speaker 1: down 20-14 in the second set and ended up finishing
- 21:17Speaker 1: the set on a 12-4 run to win 26-24 before
- 21:21Speaker 1: sweeping the match with a convincing 25-8 win in the
- 21:25Speaker 1: third set. And that second set comeback was spearheaded by
- 21:29Speaker 1: defense up front by sophomore Jesta Young, pulled off multiple blocks,
- 21:33Speaker 1: to not only gain points for her team but give
- 21:35Speaker 1: the momentum to her team as well. She finished with
- 21:38Speaker 1: a game-high 4.5 blocks on the night. Yeah, there was
- 21:42Speaker 1: a lot of diving around. The intensity in the building
- 21:46Speaker 1: was awesome. Lyndon Christian getting that rematch over Meridian there,
- 21:52Speaker 1: three sets to zero. Bellingham also beat Burlington again for
- 21:56Speaker 1: the second time this year in three straight sets. So
- 22:00Speaker 1: a great, great win there for the Bayhawks. And then
- 22:04Speaker 1: on Thursday, got to see a lot of volleyball. I
- 22:07Speaker 1: went out to see Ferndale take it to Oak Harbor,
- 22:10Speaker 1: three sets to zero. Sehome beating Anacortes, three sets to zero.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Paige Flory had another 17 kills, seven aces. Jackie Hurley,
- 22:18Speaker 1: 19 digs. I mean, this team is, they're playing great
- 22:23Speaker 1: at the right time. Of course, Clayton Sin, one of
- 22:25Speaker 1: the best coaches in volleyball, and he's got them going
- 22:28Speaker 1: extremely well. Linden also beat Squalicum, three to zero, halted
- 22:32Speaker 1: the Storms. winning streak there, Finley Partridge had 22 kills
- 22:36Speaker 1: and she also surpassed 1000 kills in her career, which
- 22:40Speaker 1: is an incredible number. And, uh, just another one of
- 22:42Speaker 1: those accomplishments for, in my opinion, the best female athlete
- 22:47Speaker 1: ever to come out of walking County. So, uh, just
- 22:50Speaker 1: so honored to be, to be able to see her
- 22:53Speaker 1: compete in athletics up close. And that's, what's, you know,
- 22:56Speaker 1: that's part of, uh, the greatness of what I do.
- 22:59Speaker 1: It's just, uh, it's not anything great that I'm doing.
- 23:02Speaker 1: It's the, it's what I guess I mean by that
- 23:04Speaker 1: is it's, I just feel that it's so great that
- 23:07Speaker 1: I get to do this is what I mean. It's, it's,
- 23:09Speaker 1: I love, uh, yeah, it has nothing to do with
- 23:11Speaker 1: the greatness of what I'm doing. It's, it's, it's, uh,
- 23:14Speaker 1: I just love what I do and there's so many
- 23:16Speaker 1: great things that make it great.
- 23:17Speaker 2: So, uh, yeah, it's been fantastic.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Also Mount Baker getting the home win over Nooksack Valley
- 23:23Speaker 1: in a, and just a great, great match that went
- 23:26Speaker 1: five sets.
- 23:27Speaker 2: It had been 12 years.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Since the Mountaineers had defeated the Pioneers, but on senior night,
- 23:32Speaker 1: Mount Baker made it happen in a thrilling five-set match.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Nooksack Valley took the first set 25-22, but a mishit
- 23:39Speaker 1: by the Pioneers at the end of the second set
- 23:40Speaker 1: allowed the Mountaineers to win 25-19 and tie it up.
- 23:44Speaker 1: Mount Baker then took the third set 25-19, but Nooksack
- 23:47Speaker 1: Valley came back from being down 20-17 in the fourth,
- 23:51Speaker 1: to win 25 to 23 and send it to the
- 23:53Speaker 1: fifth and final set. And then where the pioneers were
- 23:56Speaker 1: up in that set nine to six, keep in mind,
- 23:58Speaker 1: they only played a 15 in that fifth set, but
- 24:01Speaker 1: the Mounties, they rallied with a seven to two run
- 24:04Speaker 1: to take a 13 to 11 lead. Each team scored
- 24:07Speaker 1: a point. And then a one handed backhand by senior
- 24:10Speaker 1: Rebecca Soros scored the final point for Mount Baker. Lily
- 24:14Speaker 1: Laverne had a huge game with 18 kills. Soros added
- 24:17Speaker 1: 11 kills. Layla Porter did a lot of great things.
- 24:21Speaker 1: 30 assists, 16 digs and a team high seven aces.
- 24:26Speaker 1: And Elizabeth, Elizabeth delaying had one of her best ever games.
- 24:31Speaker 1: She neared a triple double with 21 kills, 12 digs
- 24:35Speaker 1: and nine aces. Just a tremendous game for her. Carson
- 24:39Speaker 1: only also had 29 digs in the marathon match. It
- 24:42Speaker 1: was one of the great, great matches. And I just
- 24:46Speaker 1: have a feeling they'll, they'll see each other perhaps in,
- 24:49Speaker 1: So we'll just have to wait and see. So that
- 24:52Speaker 1: happened on Thursday. So let's take a look now at–
- 24:58Speaker 1: let's see here. What are we going to take a
- 25:00Speaker 1: look at? We're going to take a look at the
- 25:01Speaker 1: standings now. And, yeah, for 1A, it looks like Meridian
- 25:09Speaker 1: is 7-1 in league. Lyndon Christian is 6-1.
- 25:13Speaker 2: But I think that Lyndon Christian still has one more.
- 25:18Speaker 1: League like meridian is done with league play and lyndon
- 25:23Speaker 1: christian has to pick up the win i believe they
- 25:25Speaker 1: play mount baker this week if they get that win
- 25:27Speaker 1: then both teams will be seven and one i don't
- 25:29Speaker 1: know what caught what breaks the tiebreaker as far as
- 25:33Speaker 1: you know going into district tournament but they're going to
- 25:36Speaker 1: be one and two just either way not not too
- 25:38Speaker 1: sure how that's going to happen um mount baker is
- 25:42Speaker 1: at they're still in they're in third right now three
- 25:45Speaker 1: and four And Nooksack Valley is fourth at two and five.
- 25:48Speaker 1: Blaine is oh and seven, but Nooksack Valley and Blaine
- 25:50Speaker 1: play this week. Pioneers are favored in that one. If
- 25:53Speaker 1: they pick up the win, then they will be tied
- 25:56Speaker 1: with Mount Baker for third place. And that's a more
- 25:58Speaker 1: important one because fourth and fifth have to play in
- 26:01Speaker 1: a play in game.
- 26:03Speaker 2: If you're third, you don't have to play in that game.
- 26:05Speaker 1: So it kind of, uh, it's really interesting to see,
- 26:09Speaker 1: you know, how they'll settle that one too. I'm not
- 26:11Speaker 1: quite sure how that will all happen, but, um, Yeah,
- 26:16Speaker 1: we'll just have to wait and see. And the regular
- 26:19Speaker 1: season will end this upcoming week in the middle of
- 26:22Speaker 1: the week. And then the tournament will start pretty quickly.
- 26:26Speaker 1: And we'll kind of know some more at that point.
- 26:29Speaker 1: In 2A, Linden 13-0 in conference play.
- 26:34Speaker 2: Sehome 11-2. Squalicum 10-3. Anacorta 6-7. Bellingham 5-8. Lakewood 4-9.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Burlington Edison 3-10. And Salton is 0-13 as that conference
- 26:38Speaker 1: will be.
- 26:46Speaker 2: I don't know if it's.
- 26:47Speaker 1: Already finished up or it's going to be finished pretty
- 26:49Speaker 1: quickly as we're going to be heading into postseason play
- 26:52Speaker 1: as well. Then in 3A, Ferndale way out ahead of everybody.
- 26:55Speaker 1: They are undefeated on the year. It's Mount Vernon, Oak Harbor,
- 26:58Speaker 1: and Sejah Woolley all chasing them. So those are your standings.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Now we'll go to the stat leaders that are brought
- 27:05Speaker 1: to you by Apex Northwest Volleyball Club. They utilize competitive
- 27:09Speaker 1: volleyball to develop stronger athletes, nurture well-rounded individuals, and provide

- 27:26Speaker 2: We have a tie. This is incredible.
- 27:29Speaker 1: We have a tie at kills per set at the top.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Finley Parcher, Melanie Short. They've been one and two all year,
- 27:36Speaker 1: kind of going back and forth. Finley had the lead early.
- 27:39Speaker 1: Melanie took it over. Now it's tied at 5.35 kills
- 27:41Speaker 1: per set. Svetlana Badak still in third, Paige Flory fourth,
- 27:47Speaker 1: and Jocelyn Essice in fifth. In digs per set, Bailey
- 27:51Speaker 1: Burge still leading, but is getting really close with Jackie
- 27:53Speaker 1: Hurley right behind her, Bronwyn Jones, Lila Pereira, and Svetlana
- 27:58Speaker 1: Badak also in that one. In assists per set, Brooklyn
- 28:02Speaker 1: Larrabee leading, just barely edging out Izzy Stephan at the
- 28:06Speaker 1: moment from Linden, Taylor Terrell in third, Alyssa Rosselli in fourth,
- 28:10Speaker 1: Finley Mitchell in fifth. In aces per set, Radley Rosellison,
- 28:14Speaker 1: not a surprise there.
- 28:15Speaker 2: And she served her way through.
- 28:17Speaker 1: That whole third set against Sultan. She's up to 1.15
- 28:21Speaker 1: aces per set now. She shot her way back to
- 28:24Speaker 1: the top. Eden Bernardi in second. Lola Froese in third.

- 28:33Speaker 1: in blocks per set, Jocelyn Essice leading the way. She's
- 28:36Speaker 1: way up there now. 0.71 blocks per set. She's got
- 28:40Speaker 1: 39 blocks on the season. Elizabeth Delang in second, Izzy
- 28:43Speaker 1: Stephan in third, Livia Weta of Blaine in fourth, and
- 28:47Speaker 1: Avery Kettman and Brooklyn Flamer still tied.
- 28:50Speaker 2: There at fifth place. So those are your.
- 28:54Speaker 1: Apex Northwest Volleyball Club leaders in volleyball statistics. And now
- 29:00Speaker 1: it is time for the players of the week. The
- 29:02Speaker 1: offensive player of the week is brought to you by
- 29:03Speaker 1: Angar Home Comfort. And that player, I'm giving this to
- 29:08Speaker 1: Layla Porter of Mount Baker. And this is, uh, A
- 29:12Speaker 1: lot of this has to do with what she did
- 29:14Speaker 1: in that they're on a three-game winning streak right now,
- 29:17Speaker 1: which I'm trying to find the last time they won
- 29:20Speaker 1: three games in a row. I think it's been probably 13,
- 29:23Speaker 1: 14 years. She's a huge, huge part of it. And
- 29:28Speaker 1: I say that about a lot of teams where you're
- 29:31Speaker 1: only going to be as good as your setter is.
- 29:33Speaker 1: And she's a fantastic setter, but there's a lot of
- 29:35Speaker 1: other things that she's doing. She does things defensively as well,
- 29:38Speaker 1: but she's setting up a lot of different players for,
- 29:41Speaker 1: for kills.
- 29:42Speaker 2: She's great at the service line. She's a calming presence.
- 29:46Speaker 2: She never ever leaves the court.
- 29:48Speaker 1: And she's the biggest reason I believe why Mount Baker
- 29:52Speaker 1: has improved this year. So giving this Angar home comfort
- 29:56Speaker 1: offensive player of the week to Layla Porter of Mount Baker. Also,
- 30:00Speaker 1: we have the defensive player of the week, which is
- 30:02Speaker 1: brought to you by Acceleration Driving School. And if you

- 30:42Speaker 1: to Linden Christians, Jess D young. And a lot of
- 30:46Speaker 1: it had to do with that second set against Meridian.
- 30:49Speaker 1: A lot of times when I see things with my
- 30:50Speaker 1: own eyes, it just does it for me right there.
- 30:53Speaker 1: When I saw what she did, It was amazing. There
- 30:56Speaker 1: was a run there where it was all, it was
- 30:58Speaker 1: a lot of it was just her getting them back
- 31:00Speaker 1: into it. And so congratulations to Jess DeYoung of Linda Christian.
- 31:04Speaker 1: You are the acceleration driving school defensive.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Player of the week.
- 31:09Speaker 1: And I think she's just a sophomore now too. So
- 31:11Speaker 1: she's probably learning how to drive. This is great timing. Hey, Jess,
- 31:15Speaker 1: go check it out. Acceleration driving school. Go check it out.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Exactly. That's what you got to do. All right.
- 31:20Speaker 1: Well, let's take a look at what's coming up this week.
- 31:24Speaker 1: And a lot of stuff like post-season wise to get
- 31:28Speaker 1: ready for. So there is still some stuff going on
- 31:31Speaker 1: for regular matches, especially Tuesday night, a couple of big
- 31:34Speaker 1: volleyball games, Blaine at Nooksack Valley at seven o'clock. Talked
- 31:38Speaker 1: about the importance of that one with seating involved. Squalicum
- 31:41Speaker 1: at Seaholm at seven o'clock on Tuesday.
- 31:44Speaker 2: Uh, that should be a good one too.
- 31:45Speaker 1: And then also Tuesday night, there will be soccer at
- 31:48Speaker 1: Blaine Nooksack Valley at Blaine at seven o'clock.
- 31:52Speaker 2: Um, On Friday, they'll have in.
- 31:54Speaker 1: Swimming, there will be the Northwest Conference B Championships at
- 31:59Speaker 1: the Arnie Hanna Aquatic Center at 3.30. And that's for
- 32:02Speaker 1: a lot of swimmers and divers to get that final
- 32:07Speaker 1: qualifying time to go to districts. There's also a lot
- 32:13Speaker 1: of postseason stuff kind of happening and getting ready. 2A
- 32:18Speaker 1: girls soccer, the tournament is already set. So we got
- 32:22Speaker 1: play-in games on Monday already. Linden, they will be hosting
- 32:26Speaker 1: a play-in game. This will be against Sultan. It'll be
- 32:29Speaker 1: at Blaine High School. So this is Monday night hosting Sultan.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Win and you move on to go against Seaholm. Lose
- 32:37Speaker 1: and you are done for the year. So Linden's going
- 32:40Speaker 1: to have to.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Be on their game here.
- 32:43Speaker 1: I think they'll be quite favored against Sultan. Sultan really
- 32:46Speaker 1: struggled this year. So Linden should be able to do that. Again,
- 32:49Speaker 1: that will be at Blaine High School. Monday night, 7 o'clock.
- 32:53Speaker 1: And the winner will take on Sehome. And that game,
- 32:58Speaker 1: Sehome will likely be playing Linden. That will then take
- 33:02Speaker 1: place on Wednesday night at 7 o'clock down on the
- 33:06Speaker 1: lower field at Sehome High School. And that's basically a
- 33:10Speaker 1: win to get to the semifinals, which those games are
- 33:15Speaker 1: played at Civic Stadium. If you lose, then you're in
- 33:18Speaker 1: the loser-out bracket. Also, On that Wednesday, Squalicum will be
- 33:22Speaker 1: playing Burlington Edison. That'll be out at Anacortes High School
- 33:25Speaker 1: on Wednesday at 3.30.
- 33:28Speaker 2: And that'll be, you.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Know, it's still, you know, you win, you move on, obviously,
- 33:33Speaker 1: but if you lose, you're still alive. And then Bellingham
- 33:36Speaker 1: also on Wednesday night, they will host the winner between
- 33:42Speaker 1: Lakewood and Marysville Pilchuck.
- 33:44Speaker 2: That's a game they'll be playing Monday.
- 33:46Speaker 1: And so they'll be able to host that game at
- 33:48Speaker 1: seven o'clock at Bellingham high school.
- 33:51Speaker 2: And for a chance to get on to the semifinals,
- 33:54Speaker 2: which will be played on Halloween.
- 33:56Speaker 1: So a lot of stuff going on in two way
- 33:58Speaker 1: soccer this week, as far as the tournament goes, it
- 34:01Speaker 1: just kind of jumps up on you. Also in cross country,
- 34:05Speaker 1: they will have the, the, the district, like the district one,
- 34:09Speaker 1: two way and three, a championships. That'll be at Lakewood
- 34:14Speaker 1: high school. So, So the 2A and 3A runners, that
- 34:17Speaker 1: will be at Lakewood High School, and that'll be on Saturday.
- 34:20Speaker 1: The schedule is as follows. The 2A girls will start
- 34:24Speaker 1: at 11 a.m., and the boys will start at 11.40 a.m.
- 34:29Speaker 1: So this is a Saturday, 2A girls, 2A boys, and
- 34:33Speaker 1: then the 3A girls will run at 12.20 in the afternoon,
- 34:37Speaker 1: and the 3A boys will run at 1.40 in the afternoon.
- 34:42Speaker 1: So again, this is all happening out at Lakewood High
- 34:45Speaker 1: School for a chance to.
- 34:48Speaker 2: Move on and go to state.
- 34:51Speaker 1: And yeah, that'll be pretty exciting. And then the 1A,
- 34:55Speaker 1: that will be out at the Deming Log Show. And
- 34:58Speaker 1: the boys, that will also be on that Saturday, Halloween.
- 35:02Speaker 1: So that will.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Be at 2.15.
- 35:05Speaker 1: The boys will be running. And this is at the
- 35:09Speaker 1: Deming Log Show. And then the girls will follow at 2.45.
- 35:13Speaker 1: So we'll see how many runners will be able to
- 35:16Speaker 1: move on and go to state. And yeah, so for boys,
- 35:22Speaker 1: I think the top two teams will automatically go and
- 35:25Speaker 1: the top 14 placing individuals will go. And then for girls,
- 35:30Speaker 1: the top team will go and the top seven placing
- 35:33Speaker 1: individuals will go. So yeah, so good luck to all
- 35:37Speaker 1: the runners. I'm going to try to make it out
- 35:40Speaker 1: there to the Deming Log Show for that one. Saturdays
- 35:42Speaker 1: are pretty crazy. Usually I've got a lot of stories
- 35:45Speaker 1: to write about and stuff like that.
- 35:47Speaker 2: And there'll be a lot of movement going on. So, yeah,
- 35:50Speaker 2: it's that time of.
- 35:51Speaker 1: The year, right, where all these postseason stuff is starting
- 35:55Speaker 1: to happen. So it makes it pretty exciting. And it goes,
- 35:58Speaker 1: like I said, it goes extremely fast. Thank you so
