GIRLS PREP BASKETBALL
Raymond-South Bend 71, Ilwaco 19
Raymond-South Bend had four players in double figures in a 71-19 win over Ilwaco on Thursday at Raymond High School.
The Ravens (10-5 overall, 3-1 2B Pacific) had the game well in hand by the end of the first quarter, leading 24-1 over the Fishermen (2-11, 1-3) thanks to hot starts from senior guard Emma Glazier (7 points), sophomore guard Avalyn Stigall (7 pts.) and senior post Ava Baugher (6 pts.).
Raymond-South Bend’s defense held Ilwaco under nine points in every quarter of the game while getting plenty of scoring from the likes of Glazier (15 pts., 3 rebounds, four steals), Stigall (15 pts., 5 reb., 2 assists, 2 stl., block), senior forward Kassie Koski (13 pts., 9 reb., 2 stl.) and Baugher (12 pts., 10 reb., 7 stl.).
“First game in a long while that we actually started fast and didn’t have to play catch up,” Ravens head coach Jason Koski said. “Nice to have the kids share the ball and to get lots of opportunities for everyone to get good shots. Still looking to cut down on the unforced turnovers, but I really like our energy the last four league games.”
The Ravens had 15 turnovers as a team to 23 for the Fishermen.
RSB hosts Hoquiam at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday at Raymond High School.

Willapa Valley 67, Columbia Adventist 32
Willapa Valley had 11 players score, four in double figures, en route to a 67-32 victory over Columbia Adventist Academy on Thursday at Willapa Valley High School.
The Vikings (6-8) put the game away early with 23-0 run in the first quarter and had four players – Tylar Keeton (16 points, 11 rebounds, 4 steals), Kylee Fluke (10 pts., 4 assists), Paislee Hurley (10 pts.) and Rhian Verboomen (10 pts.) – score in double figures against the Kodiaks (4-5).
“Our defense set the tone early and we attacked the basket with confidence,” Valley head coach Dawn Keeton said. “We shared the ball well, creating opportunities for everyone to contribute offensively. We also did an excellent job on the boards, collecting nearly as many offensive rebounds as defensive ones. Those second-chance opportunities played a big role in securing the win.”
Valley hit 28-of-59 shots (47%) and made 9-of-14 free throws (64%) as a team.
The Kodiaks shot 23% from the floor on 11-of-48 shooting and made 4-of-14 free throws (29%).
“Columbia Adventist is a young team that challenged us at times and helped expose a few areas we still need to improve,” Coach Keeton said. “The girls adjusted well and were very receptive to feedback throughout the game. With each outing, we’re getting closer to where we want to be.”
The Vikings host Mary M. Knight at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
