MOSES LAKE - The Runnin' Vikes picked up two wins over the last five days to run their record to 12-1 in league play and 23-4 overall, and capture the Northwest Athletic Association of Community College's (NWAACC) East Division Championship for the third time in the last four years.

BBCC beat Columbia Basin Community College (CBCC) by 24 points at home Feb. 13, and then turned back Walla Walla by 6 points on the road Saturday.

"Winning another Eastern Region title is great accomplishment, especially considering the conference was really balanced this year," coach Mark Poth said. "We lost our league opener at Spokane and bounced back with 12 consecutive wins to repeat as champions."

Nield scored 16 and pulled down 10 boards, Page added 15 points, Funston knocked down 7, McCullough scored 6, Johnson chipped in 5, Walker tallied 3, and Cameron Sanchez finished with 1 point.
