By EMILY HANSON emiIy@masoncounty.com For the Shelton boys' cross coun- try team, 13 is its lucky number. The team finished the WIAA 3A State Cross Country Championships in 13th place on Saturday at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco. "I was very happy with where our team placed," head coach Daryl White said. "We actually did better than what we thought we might." Points-wise, the Highclimbers found themselves in a three-way tie for llth place, White explained. "But in cross country, there are no ties," he said.

Taholah serves season-ending loss By EMILY HANSON emily@masoncoun(y.com Before last week, the Mary M. Knight volley- ball team had faced Ta- holah on the court twice this season, splitting matches with them. In last week's match, Taholah came out ahead, ending the Lady Owls' season in the first round of Southwest Washington District IV Tournament on Oct. 30 in Taholah. Taholah won games one, three and four 25- 18, 25-19 and 25-22. The Lady Owls took game two 25-19. "I thought we played fairly well," head coach Kitty Brehmeyer said. "We had good hustle and communication on the court." Senior outside hit- ter Ashley Sowle led the team, serving 16-of-18 with three aces. Sopho- more defensive specialist Lauren Dierkop served 9-of-ll with three aces. Junior setter Hannah Frost and sopho- m o r e setter Miranda Sowle both col- FRIDAY: 1 e c t e d Taholah ......... 3 four kills. MarylV[~.. 1 " T h e best kill of the match was put down by (sophomore defensive specialist) Melodic Sny- der," Brehmeyer said. "It was textbook: hard, fast and awesome." She said this match was interesting because it was the third time the Lady Owls had played Taholah. "Every time we played Taholah this season, it was a good, competitive night of volleyball," she said. "Both teams were victorious on the oppo- nent's home court." Brehmeyer said the Lady Owls' final match of the season was competi- tive all the way until the end. She said the team "We are a young team with only one senior and one junior ... Look for the Owls to be more competitive as we mature." played hard all season. "We are a young team with only one senior and one junior," Brehmeyer said. "Look for the Owls to be more competitive as we mature. Finishing third in (the 1B Coastal League) was a good ac- complishment for this young team."
