GIRLS PREP BASKETBALL

Eatonville 60, Hoquiam 16

Hoquiam’s losing streak stretched to five games as the Grizzlies fell to Eatonville 60-16 on Saturday at Hoquiam High School.

“Too much size, too much athleticism and too much pressure by the Cruisers today,” Hoquiam head coach Chad Allan said of Eatonville, which held a 20-2 lead after one quarter and put the game away up by 36 at halftime. “They have one of the best guards in our league with (Bailey) Anderson, who either scored or picked us apart all day.”

Hoquiam’s Achilles’ heel this season reared its ugly head again as the Grizzlies committed 36 turnovers in the game.

Hoquiam (3-12 overall) hit 5-of-30 shots from the field (17%) and gave up 29 offensive rebounds to the Cruisers, which went 26-of-68 shooting (38%) as a team.

Nadine Stewart led Hoquiam with seven points.

Hoquiam sits a game up on Tenino for the fourth and final playoff spot in the 1A Evergreen League.

Olympia 56, Montesano 35

Montesano lost to 4A Olympia 56-35 in a non-league contest on Saturday in Olympia.

The Bulldogs (9-8) fell behind by nine after one quarter and struggled to slow down Olympia’s perimeter shooting.

The Bears went 10 for 36 from the field (28%) and hit 10 3-pointers in the game, which Monte head coach Mark Mansfield said “was kind of the difference tonight.”

Jillie Dalan led the Bulldogs with a double-double, scoring 10 points to go along with 15 rebounds.

Monte went 12-for-49 shooting (24%) from the field and hit 10-of-21 free throws in the loss (48%).

“(Olympia) did a very good job of crashing the boards,” said Mansfield, who added anytime his team made a move, the Bears answered. “It was a nice effort tonight. We battled.”

Pe Ell 48, Ocosta 43

Despite getting off to a quick start, Ocosta suffered a non-league loss to Pe Ell 48-43 on Saturday at Pe Ell High School.

The Wildcats (6-8) scored the game’s first seven points highlighted by a corner three from eighth-grade guard Bristol Towle.

But the Trojans (15-3) outscored Ocosta 8-2 the rest of the period to trail by one after one quarter of play.

The game remained close at the half and through the third quarter, with senior post Alexia Bradley scoring eight of her team-high 17 points in the frame as the two teams were tied 36-36 heading into the fourth quarter.

Pe Ell’s defense held Ocosta to seven points in the fourth to hand the Wildcats the loss.

“We fell short of the win tonight, but the girls played hard tonight especially with some not feeling 100% today, but they still gave it there all to the end,” Ocosta head coach Rissy Ness said.

Ocosta had 38 rebounds in the game (18 offensive), led by sophomore Anna Davis with 16, and went 16 of 54 from the field as a team (30%), including 4 of 25 from 3-point range (10%).

Davis had a double-double, scoring 13 points to go along with her 16 boards.

The Wildcats also converted 10-of-18 free throws (56%).
