Saturday, March 8 CHAMPIONSHIP SATURDAY!
State Championship Game
(1) Davis 61, (8) Sumner 45
The Davis Pirates served notice they were serious last year with a 3rd place finish. They came cruising into the the State Tournament with a 20-2 record and the top seed. Maybe a little too comfortable as Sumner stunned the Pirates in the Regional on their home court none the less with a 67-62 win. The Pirates were now going to have to play a loser out game on Wednesday in the Tacoma Dome just to get into the quarters and the double-elimination portion of the tournament.
The Sumner experience turned them back on as they rolled through the 9 seed Mead 81-58. The early loss then forced an early 1 vs 2 match-up in the quarters and the Pirates handled Lake Washington 71-59. They blew by Cinderella, the 13 seeded Glacier Peak in the semi’s 76-38 and advaned the hard way to the State Championship game.
Guess who was there waiting for them? That’s right the last team to beat them the Sumner Spartans. Sumner advanced outplaying their 8 seed with a win over Davis then beat the 7 seed and defedning State Champ Camas before taking care of the 4 seed Woodinville in the semifinals setting up the re-match.
You have to say this aboout Davis they learned their lesson and came out on fire once again scoring 17 and 12 holding the spartans to 7 and 7 for a 29-14 lead. This would really do it for Sumner as they did play better in the 2nd half scoring 31 but Davis did plenty to keep that cushion with 32 2nd half points for the comfortable win.
Davis did most of their damage behind the 3 point line going 10-21 for 48% while the Spartans were a cold 3-15 or just 20% behind the line. The Pirates were led by the Thorbeckes MVP of the game Cheyenne Hull with 26 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals. Naveah Parrish added 15 and 9 in the Championship effort.
Sumner made a valiant run through the tournament and gave it all they had finishing the season with a 25-5 record. Kawehi Borden led the Spartans with 24 points and Parker Gould added 10
Davis wins their 1st ever State girls basketball Championship and finished the season with a 24-3 final mark.

9:30am 4th/6th Place Game
(3) Chiawana 47, (6) Auburn 41
Chiawana was hoping to be playing on Saturday but at a later time after getting upset by the 3 seed Glacier Peak in the quarters. The River Hawks bounced back with a nice win on Friday over the 2 seed Lake Washington to get to the trophy round.
Auburn as the 6 seed had already battled the Riverhawks at Regionals and fell short 67-51. The Trojans were determined to make this a much better game and did so with a big 2nd half. The Trojans got started slow trailing the Riverhawks 28-15. But in the 3rd they doubled up Chiawana 10-5 to have a shot in the final quarter trailing 33-25.
But Chiawana was not having it and although got outscored 16-14 in the final frame was enough to take home the 4th place trophy. Chiawana was led by Kaia Foster’s 13 points and got the double-double with 10 boards and earned our Thorbeckes MVP award. Baylee Maldonado had a solid game with 8 points and 9 boards. The Riverhawks finished the year with a 25-2 record.

1pm 3rd/5th Place Game
(4) Woodinville 55, (13) Glacier Peak 54
After getting upended by Sumner in the semifinals the Woodinville Falcons were in no mood to play for runners-up positions and came out as flat as a pancake. One of the surprises of the tournaments 13 seeded Glacier Peak beat 3 seeded Chiawana in the quarters to get to the semifinals where top seed Davis ended their Cinderella run to the Title game.
The Grizzlies though were not ready to stop playing and jumped all over a lethargic Falcons squad leading 32-16 at the half outscoring Woodinville 17-8 and 15-8. Well the halftime speech, whomever gave it, was a dandy because the Falcons were a new team. Clearly determined not to finish the year this way.

Consoltion Round (Loser Out)
(6) Auburn 58, (7) Camas 53
The Auburn Trojans prevented the defending Champs from going home with anything as they slowed down the Camas offense to a crawl for half the game. Holding the Papermakers to just 17 points in the 2nd and 3rd quarters gave them the opportunity to build a big lead heading into the final 8 minutes. Up 48-35 after 3, the Trojans withstood the Camas 18-10 rally in the 4th and advances to Saturday.
For Auburn, Avery Hansen scored 15 and Kamryn Huttenlocker added 14. But it was Huttenlocker’s 4 3-pointers off the bench that spurred the Trojan attack and she earned our Thorbeckes MVP award.

(3) Chiawana 45, (2) Lake Washington 42
This consolation game was a tale of two halves with the Lake Washington Kangaroos taking a 24-17 lead at the half holding Chiawana to single digits in the 1st and 2nd quarters. The Riverhawks then used that same plan and shut down the Kangs in the 3rd and 4th holding them to 6 in the 3rd and then just 12 in the 4th.
This opened the door for the Riverhawks to get their offense rolling. They picked up 6 in the 3rd with a 12-6 run and then overhauled the Kangs 16-12 in the 4th to get the win.
