COEUR d'ALENE - Kootenai won just two games during the regular season, but picked the right time to get hot.

The third-seeded Warriors swept through the 1A Division II District 1 tournament, beating the top-seeded Clark Fork Wampus Cats 34-23 in the championship game Thursday night at Lake City High.

"What we did so well tonight was defense; we came out with intensity on defense," Kootenai coach Mike LaFountaine said. "We talked about defense all year long; they bought into our philosophy. It's just neat to see the way these kids bought in as a team."

Kootenai (4-18), which ousted No. 2 Mullan in the semifinals on Monday, will face Dietrich (23-1) in its state tourney opener next Thursday at 12:15 p.m. PST at Nampa High. It's the Warriors' first trip to state since 2008.

Leading 25-23 with less than two minutes to go, Kootenai closed with a 9-0 run to pull away. Savanna Dutton scored on a putback with 1:06 left, Katey Mae McInturff hit two free throws, then scored on a breakaway layup with 10 seconds left to clinch it.

Tess Vogel led Clark Fork (8-13) with nine points.

HARRISON FLATS - Jacklyn Jensen totaled 15 points and six blocked shots as the Panthers beat the Lumberjacks at Kootenai High in a loser-out game in the 2A District 1-2 tournament.

Lexi Turkenburg added 13 points for Coeur d'Alene Charter (17-5), but took a shot to the nose with 6 minutes left and had to leave the game. It was feared her nose was broken, but coach Doug Grant said after the game that it was not.

"That younger group, I couldn't be more proud of them," said Grant, whose group of two freshmen and three sophomores extended a five-point lead at that point.
