Sunday scoreboard

Good Sunday morning. Coming later, we have a Mount Si High School girls’ basketball team preview for you. First though, a busy scoreboard for you on this Sunday.

Baseball
Gonzaga 21, St. Mary’s 3: A football game broke out last night on the baseball diamond in Spokane as the Bulldogs unloaded on the Gaels, led largely by Mason Marenco. The junior from North Bend, a 2017 MSHS’er, was 3-5 with two doubles, four runs scored and three RBI’s pushing his batting average to above .300 as Gonzaga rolled. The final game of the series is this afternoon at 1:00 on WCC Network live streaming.

Northwest Naturals 18U 9, Northwest Bandits 5: The Sammamish-based Nats won a slugfest at home with the Kirkland-based Bandits at Eastlake High School on the plateau. Mount Si’s trio of Hayden Weaver, Tyler Disch and Jack Phillips all factored in; Weaver was 1-2 with a triple, two runs, two walks and an RBI while Phillips was 1-2 with an RBI. Disch was 0-2 with an RBI. Weaver started on the hill for NWN and worked four innings, allowing three runs on six hits, walking one, striking out seven and getting the win.

Track & Field
John Knight Twilight, Monmouth, OR: Western Washington University senior Karlie Hurley, she of North Bend and a 2015 MSHS’er, won the women’s 200m dash last night at this meet being hosted by Western Oregon University. She clocked 25.13 seconds and won the race by over a second over a WOU competitor. Hurley also took second in the 400m dash, clocking 57.63 seconds.

PLU Invitational, Tacoma: PLU women’s distance runner Alicia Krivanek competed in this meet’s 1500m women’s race yesterday, and the junior from Carnation, a Cedarcrest HS grad, finished eighth clocking six minutes, 6.40 seconds. Fellow Red Wolves alum Sophie Paradis also competed in this meet repping Western Washington University; the junior cleared 10 feet to finish in a tie for fifth in the women’s pole vault.

WAR, Spokane: A pair of Valley athletes were in action at this meet yesterday. Central Washington senior Andrew Harris, from North Bend and a Mount Si HS grad, won the men’s hammer toss at the event hosted by the Community Colleges of Spokane. His winning toss was 188 feet, seven inches. Also, Gonzaga junior women’s distance runner Mary Cate Babcock, from Duvall and a 2018 CHS’er, took eighth in the 1500m, clocking 5:12.46.

Pacific U. meet, Forest Grove, OR: George Fox freshman Spencer Sprague, from North Bend and a 2019 MSHS alum, took 11th in the men’s 800m at this meet outside of Portland yesterday. He clocked 2:03.19. Sprague also ran the 1500m and took third, clocking 4:09.12. Another Wildcat alum also did well for the Bruins in this one. Women’s high jumper Karlie Stewart, also from North Bend, cleared 4′ 11 1/2 feet and finished tied for second in the high jump event.

Lacrosse
Limestone men win regular season finale aided by MSHS alum: The Saints rolled to the 21-11 home win in their regular season finale yesterday over Coker in South Carolina. Mount Si alum Chris Haycock, from Snoqualmie, played in the contest for Limestone recording one shot and one “ground ball” defensively.

Southwestern-TX women blown out at home: The Pirates opened a home-and-home set in Texas last night with Colorado College falling 23-10 to the visitors from Colorado. Goalie Tessa Lewis, from Snoqualmie and a MSHS alum, allowed seven goals on 15 shots she faced in a little over 22 minutes of work in a backup role for Southwestern in goal. She received no decision.

Softball
Washington Ladyhawks 18U Hirai/Simpson 4, Northwest Sidewinders 0 (game one, doubleheader): Three pitchers, two from Kingco 4A schools (Redmond’s Grace Haegele and Issaquah’s Megan Reichley) combined on a no-hitter for the Bellevue-based Hirai/Simpson squad as they blanked the Sidewinders in the first of two in Everett. Cedarcrest’s Riley Warden went 1-3. Haegele also led the offense in this one for the Hawks, homering and driving in all four runs. Good day all around for the Mustang athlete.

Fordham 4, St. Bonaventure 2 (game one, doubleheader): Pitcher Devon Miller’s 15-strikeout complete game effort lifted the Rams in the first of two at home in New York. Sophomore Michaela Carter, from Duvall and a CHS alum, was 0-3 for Fordham.

Fordham 8, St. Bonaventure 0 (game two, doubleheader): Carter paced the Rams, going 1-2 with a run scored and RBI as they beat the Bonnies in the nightcap and swept the twinbill to move to 23-3 on the season.

Washington Ladyhawks 18U Hirai/Simpson 4, Northwest Sidewinders 2 (game two, doubleheader): The third pitcher in that no-hitter in the first game, Glacier Peak’s Makayla Miller, continued to dominate in the nightcap in the circle for the Hawks, allowing two runs, one earned, on three hits in a complete game effort to help her team sweep the twinbill. Warden went 0-2 with a walk. Haegele once again homered to power WLH and drove in two runs.

Football
Mount Si alum sees perhaps final college action: The up-and-down college career of Mount Si alum Jonathan “JoJo” Hillel perhaps came to an end yesterday, we shall see, but he left something on the field for Central Washington University in a 59-3 loss to the University of Montana over in Missoula.

The senior receiver, from North Bend, caught three passes for 20 yards for the Central ‘Cats as they fell in their lone game of their truncated 2020-21 season. Montana will have one more game next weekend in their truncated schedule. They are not competing in Big Sky Conference play this season.

Volleyball
Former Wildcat Carr delivers for Northwest in thriller: Senior Courteney Carr’s 24 assists, a game-high, lifted Northwest University to a wild 22-25, 25-20, 26-24, 20-25, 15-10 win over NCAA Division II foe St. Martin’s last night at home in Kirkland. Carr, from Snoqualmie and a Mount Si HS grad, also had a kill and two digs for the Eagles, whose win finished off a two-match sweep of the Saints. Late last Friday night, Carr had 11 assists, a kill and six digs as the Eagles swept St. Martin’s in three, 25-17, 25-17, 25-23. NWU has an intrasquad game tomorrow, then will close with two straight weekends of games against conference rival Evergreen State.
