Barber fi nishes in top-,00000 in
2A state girls golf tourney
By DEAN SIEMON
North Mason High
School freshman Anela
Barber was the lone Lady
Bulldog at the 2A
Girls Golf Championships
on May 24 and 25 at Lake
Spanaway Golf Course in
Spanaway.
Barber finished tied for
33rd place with Sequim
High School's Kim Duce
with a two-day total of
189.
Barber finished the
first day of competition
tied for 39th place with a
round of 95. She was tied
with Sequim's Duce, Fife
High School's Kayla Wil-
iams and Cedarcrest High
School's Samantha Dunn.
The top-40 golfers in
the first day moved on to
golf another round, where
"My goal now
is for her to
play higher up
the ladder next
Barber finished with 94
for the 189 total.
North Mason coach
Martha Music said she is
proud of Barber, as both
were excited to be at state.
"My goal now is for her
to play higher up the lad-
der next year," Music said.
The individual 2A state
championship went to
Pullman High School's
Paige Whidbee, who had
rounds of 72 and 77 for a
149 total.
The second place golf-
er was Steilacoom High
School's Cherokee Kim
(72-82-154), followed by
Burlington-Edison High
School's Lauren Atkinson
(74-81-155).
While facing tough
competition, Music said
Barber was mentally fo-
cused throughout both
rounds of golf.
"[Barber] would have
some really tough holes
and grind back into her
pace," Music said. "She
didn't let anybody intimi-
date her."
Music said that Bar-
ber's short game will be a
focus of improvement in
the offseason.
"Chipping on and get-
ting it close for an easy
putt or an easy two-putt,"
Music said.
Young Owls ,;1:and out at
1B track charnpmnshlps
By DEAN SIEMON
Mary M. Knight High
School sent five girls to the
1B WIAA Track and Field
Championships on Saturday
at Eastern Washington Uni-
versity in Cheney.
The Lady Owls finished in
a tie for 17th place out of 29
schools represented with 15
team points.
Freshman Hannah Frost
finished fourth place in the
800-meter run with a time of
2:40.61.
Her new personal best
time by four seconds was not
enough for the win. Valerie
Vogt of Trout Lake/Glenwood
High School won with a time
of 2:25.73.
Frost also finished eighth
in the discus with a throw of
90 feet and seven inches. She
also helped in two relay races.
The Lady Owls' 4x200 re-
lay took sixth with a time of
2:14.86. The team also con-
sisted of freshman Kiah Lof-
gren, sophomore Kelsey Bee-
be and senior Ashley Culver.
The same four athletes also
finished eighth in the 4x400
relay with a time of 5:32.82.
Beebe also competed in
an individual event, taking
eighth in the 300-meter hur-
dles with a time of 1:06.36,
0.2 seconds from her season
best time.
Junior Linda Cook finished
the season with a fifth-place
throw in the shot put with 30
feet and four inches.
The throw was three inches
shorter than her season best
last week at the 1B District
IV Championships.
Mary M. Knight head
coach Kitty Brehmeyer was
called for comment on the
season, but could not respond
by press time.
: ::::: COMMENTARY
Favorite varsity sports mome',l:s in Mason County
It has been
a fun two
years report-
ing on the lo-
cal sports in
Mason County
and there have
been some mo-
ments from
games that
are memorable
in their own
Dean right.
Fans can re-
Siemon member when
their team had a last minute buzzer
beater or a touchdown on the final
drive, possibly a bases loaded home
runin the bottom of the ninth.
As a sports fan, I love to see these
moments live and being the sports
reporter, there have been a few
great moments to remember from
these last two years.
September 4, 2009 - Mount
Tahoma High School at Shelton
High School (football season
opener)
One of the first things I was told
by the Journal staff before I was to
start on this day was that Shelton
football suffered a couple of bad
seasons, including a 0-10 record in
2008.
I sat in the highest row at High-
climber Stadium after driving three
straight days to make the move to
Shelton.
On the very first play from scrim-
mage, running back Ryan Adams
scored on an 80-yard touchdown
One of the more impressive events
I have attended was the WIAA Mat
Classic wrestling tournament at the
Tacoma Dome, where hundreds of
grapplers from all of the classifica-
tions compete.
At the 2A level, North Mason had
two individuals wrestling for cham-
pionships - brothers Pedro and Zac
Joaquin.
The younger brother, Zac, won
the 112-pound championship in a
very close 11-9 win in overtime over
Squalicum High School's Ren Bish-
op.
The match was back and forth to
the point where I was quietly root-
run en route to a 40-16 win for the ing r •last minute edown to
Highclimbers. ,' : ':' : ' -" " giveheBtdldogddwin
Forget that they went winless
the rest of that season, but for that
night, Shelton fans were cheering.
February 19, 2011 - 2A WIAA
Mat Classic
But then in the very next
match, Pedro, a senior, lost in the
ll9-pound title match to a familiar
rival in North Kitsap High School's
Jake Velarde.
But b0b tg 49gqa llad §milw
on their faces about competing at
this level together.
February 26, 2011 - Mary M.
Knight High School vs. Taholah
High School (1B Regionals at
Timberline High School in Lac-
ey)
In 2010, Mary M. Knight girls
basketball had a winless season, so
the expectations were to improve
game by game.
But the Lady Owls earned a
berth to the 1B WIAA Girls Basket-
ball Tournament after winning two
games at the regional round; includ-
ing a win over Coastal League rival
Taholah.
Also considering that the WIAA
allows 1B schools to bring eighth
graders up to the high school level,
and that the Lady Owls had a large
number of middle school age play-
ers, the team can only get better.

POLES APART
BY JOSEPH ZYGAK P.T.
Hiking (or
"trekking")
poles are
designed to
help walkers
get all four
limbs involved as well as take stress
off their legs. While ascents get the
heart beating faster, descents are
much harder on the hip and leg
muscles. Walking downhill, in fact,
exerts three to four times the com-
pressive force on knees that they
otherwise endure walking on level
ground. The interest that walkers
and hikers have in hiking poles is
largely predicated on the findings
of numerous biomechanical ex-
periments that show that ,the poles
can significantly reduce the forces
that walking downhill place on the
knees. They also reduce movement
within the knees and hold walk-
ers more upright, which increases
walking stability and
and fractures.
Using two hiking poles effec-
tively will also reduce fatigue, in-
crease speed and provide excellent
stability. Hiking poles increase the
distance that can be traveled com-
fortably in a day, and reduce stress
on the legs, feet and back. For all

APY AND SPORTS MEDICINE.

P.S. A study involving people
who experience pain in their legs
while walking due to poor circu-
lation (intermittent claudication)
reports that they were able to walk
farther with less when
