Prep basketball: Entiat girls lock up second place
Tuesday, February 5, 2013
ENTIAT — The Entiat girls basketball team locked up second place in the Central Washington 1B League North Division with a 61-37 win over Waterville Tuesday night.
Jaelyn Davis had 14 points and Taylor Southard had seven points and nine assists to help the Tigers (14-6 overall, 7-2 league) take down the Shockers.
Entiat led 22-6 after the first quarter and 40-14 at halftime.
“We struggled the last couple nights with our starts, but we did some different things in pregame,” Entiat coach Bill Edwardson said. “We came out real hard with our pressure and bothered them. We hit some shots and just got some confidence that we needed after a rough couple games.”
The Tigers will host a district play-in game at home Saturday against Wilson Creek.
