BONNERS FERRY — Ciara Soumas made three 3-pointers scored 16 points as the Timberlake Tigers rolled past the Bonners Ferry Badgers 63-29 on Friday night to clinch at least a tie for the Intermountain League title, and wrap up the No. 1 seed to the 3A District 1 tournament.

McKennah Kronenberg also hit three 3s and added 13 points for Timberlake (13-5, 5-1 IML), which beat Bonners Ferry 43-36 at home on Jan. 19.

“They were much better than nine days ago,” Bonners Ferry coach Travis Hinthorn said. “They were more aggressive. We had 25 turnovers, and that full-court pressure was a huge part of those turnovers.”

Asha Abubakari scored nine points for Bonners Ferry (7-10, 1-3), which hosts Kellogg on Tuesday.
