shots to let them know we
are here." With a smile I
agreed and reloaded my
12 gauge.
Back to telling stories,
I interrupted Bob to let
him know that often, after
some shots, the mass of
birds lift off and pour over
us by the hundreds. Not
knowing how right I was,
there off in the distance
I could see a black cloud
stirring about.
Looking like a tornado,
I could tell that soon they
would be headed our way.
Telling Bob to get ready,
no less than a hundred
ducks came pouring over
us in quick succession.
Again the guns fired.
This time I was pleased
to see that Bob had
dropped one out of the
flock, "Great shot!" I re-
marked.
Pulling anchor and re-
trieving the bird, it was
soon" evident that the
birds were now moving.
Flock after flock passed by
and both Bob and I made
a couple more shots with
success.
On this trip I had elect-
ed to not bring along my
new Chocolate Lab pup,
Rider, and our method of
retrieval was my old trout
net. Scooping up two more
birds, I noticed I was out
of shells• and the light was
fading, I made the last
call, as it was time to head
home.
A successful trip, even
if it was a short one. Both
Bob and I agreed, we need
to do this more often.
Owls win second game of season
By DEAN SIEMON
Mary M. Knight High
School girls basketball
earned their second win of
the season on Saturday at
North River High School,
32-26.
The Owls (2-6, 2-1 1B
Coastal League) had ear-
ly struggles, veXh eight
points in each of the quar-
ters.
"The gym is small and
not much room to spread
the court out," said Owls
head coach Lance Valley.
Miranda Sowle scored
four of her six points in
the second quarter and
had seven rebounds in the
first half.
"She stepped in at point
guard for me' and played
well," Valley said.
The Owls won the re-
bounding battle with 27
offensive rebounds.
The win came after a
league loss at Oakville
High School on Friday,
37-33.
The Owls started with
a 11-7 first quarter lead,
but were outscored 20-12
in the second and third
quarters.
"We started out great
scoring," Valley said. "But
then we couldn't buy a
basket."
The Owls were 14 of 59
from the field in the game
and unable to score on the
• inside lanes.
"When you don't hit kill
shots, you don't win," Val-
ley said.

Climbers
Continued from page C-1
Fisher was three out of
six from three-point range,
but only two out of 10 when
shooting for two.
Another alarming sta-
tistic was Olympia out-
rebounding Shelton 20 to
nine in the second half, an
issue that has plagued the
Highclimbers this season.
Olympia had two players
at six-foot-five (Alex Weber-
Brader and Cole Voorhees)
in addition to another four
players at six-foot-three and
above.
Jensen said his two six-
foot-five players, Jon Own-
by and John Padgett, were
"stocky" when compared to
the larger Bears.
"We've gone up against
teams that are big and
physical and our bigs aren't
exactly physical," Jensen
said.
The low rebounding num-
bers for Shelton could be at-
tributed to the quick shots
from some of the players,
Jensen said.
Berry Peterson only
scored two points in the
game, missing several lay
ups and mid-range jumpers.
His lone field goal came
with 10 seconds left in the
first half.
"He missed a lot of shots
early and I think he got his
head down after that," Jen-
sen said. "I thought he lost
his focus and got frustrated
and when that happens, it
sort of goes downhill."
After the road win at Sta-
dium High School on Janu-
ary 5, Jensen said the High-
climbers have not competed
well in the last three games.
"I think we sort of pla-
teu and sort of went back-
wards," Jensen said. "Part
of it is a competition but it's
mainly the way we've com-
peted."
