MOSES LAKE — The Big Bend Community College Vikings (27-4) concluded their season after being eliminated in the second round of the Northwest Athletic Conference tournament.
Knights optimistic for future after third place finish at state
ROYAL CITY — The Royal Knights (23-5) wrapped their season with a historic run to the 1A state semifinals and third-place finish, the first time they’ve appeared in the tournament since 2001. “I'm thrilled with this season,” Head Coach Farrah Wardenaar said. “We set some goals, and one of them was to get to the SunDome. To do it and then get third place, it was almost unattainable, but (we’re) so happy that we stayed focused. When we went to Tacoma and beat Annie Wright, I think it was like a light switch for our girls, like we can compete with these guys, and the momentum kept going from there.”
Foundations of belief powers Knights to third in state tourney
ROYAL CITY — After a successful first year under Head Coach Tim Ravet, the Royal Knights (24-5) finished the season in third at the 1A state basketball tournament. “I think we were playing pretty good basketball; having a shot to play until the last day is always the goal,” Ravet said. “Believing that you could win is always fun; you can tell the kids believed we could win. That's what you want more than anything: that belief, buy-in and work ethic.”
