I grew up in the small town of Orwigsburg, Pa., where I resided all of my life before moving to Sandpoint. I attended Blue Mountain High School, where I participated in cross country and track and field, a sport that I ended up falling in love with. I went on to attend and run for DeSales University (with other brief stints at Susquehanna University and Elizabethtown College) and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in sport communication with a minor in sport management. I remember just how great it made me feel when I was mentioned in my hometown newspaper. I want to be able to give that feeling to every athlete in Bonner County, no matter how big or small their accomplishments are. As an athlete myself, I know how many hours of work are put in on a daily basis, and that hard work deserves to be recognized. It is my goal to cover as much of the Bulldogs, Spartans and Wampus Cats as I can. I want to work with every athlete, parent, coach, administrator and the community to ensure the best stories are published. | January 19, 2024 9:15 PM

Genesis Prep 71, Clark Fork 59

POST FALLS — Clark Fork senior Ethan Howard paced the Wampus Cats with 12 points in a 71-59 nonleague loss to Genesis Prep at The Courts at Real Life on Friday night.

“It was an exciting game,” head coach Heath Beason said. “We came prepared, but tonight wasn't our night. In the first half, our shots were falling, and we controlled the boards. In the second half, our shots just didn't fall. Credit to Genesis Prep, their shooting was impeccable tonight. We need to get ready for Wallace, another big game.”

Also reaching double-figures on the night for Clark Fork were Seth Caven and Cole Sanroman who each had 10 points. Cole also led the Wampus Cats in assists (5) and steals (4). Evrett Montgomery and Westin Caven each had nine points. Owen Howard scored five and pulled in a team-high nine boards. Cole and Owen also had two blocks apiece. 

Junior Spencer Farrell led the Jaguars with a game-high 29 points, 18 of which came from behind the 3-point line.

Clark Fork (5-3) hosts Wallace on Thursday.

Clark Fork 14 20 15 10 — 59
