Raymond-South Bend 58, Toledo 34

Raymond-South Bend exacted a little revenge with a 58-34 win over Toledo on Monday at Raymond High School.

The Ravens (2-1) hit 10 threes and had just eight turnovers en route to the victory over the Riverhawks (1-1), which ended the Raven’s season in the district tournament a season ago.

“Just a very physical competitive game versus an opponent we know well,” RSB head coach Jason Koski said.

RSB had four players with three fouls or more in the game, but senior guard Berklee Morley (6 points, 3 rebounds) and freshman guard Elizabeth Lewis (2 rebounds) stepped up to give the Ravens valuable minutes.

“We got into early foul trouble and it continued all game long,” Koski said. “Thank goodness for Berklee and Liz who played bigger minutes than they have been and gave us good contributions both on off and defense.”

The Ravens were led by junior Kassi Koski, who had a game-high 17 points to go along with five rebounds, four assists and six steals.

Junior point guard Megan Kongbouakhay (11 points, 6 assists, 5 steals) and sophomore guard Avalyn Stigall (11 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals) also scored in double digits for the Ravens.

“Making 10 threes as a team was a welcome sight, but more importantly winning the rebound battle and limiting our turnovers to eight was huge. The latter was mainly due to the ball handling of Megan, who just continues to control our offense, which lets our post kids and shooters do their thing.”

RSB faces Naselle at 7 p.m. on Thursday at Naselle High School.

Toledo 5 7 12 10 – 34

RSB 14 20 12 12 – 58

Scoring: Toledo – Gould 9, Stanley 7, Lairson Young 6, Tallon 5, Holter 2, Cooper 2, Miller 2, Z. Norberg 1. RSB – Koski 17, Kongbouakhay 11, Stigall 11, Baugher 7, Morley 6, Pine 6.

“So proud of the effort we came with today and never stopped working,” Hoquiam head coach Chad Allan said. “So many things we can take away from this game to improve to our potential. Exactly what a (non-league) game should provide.”
