Indians will host Riverside in loser-out
After getting a busy week started on the right sneaker with a big road win at Lakeside, the Colville High boyâs basketball team saw opportunity slip through their grasp last weekend at home.
The Indians (11-9, 6-4) were outplayed by NEA champion Freeman (13-7, 8-2) and by second place Chewelah (15-5, 7-3) on Saturday.
Colville gives top-ranked
Freeman all they can handle
By virtue of their second place Northeast A League finish, the Colville High girls avoid the District 7 1A Tournament loser-out pressure cooker on Saturday and can prepare for the opening round of the double elimination portion of the tournament that gets started Wednesday, Feb. 8 at Mead High School.
Indians down Lakeside,
Riverside back-to-back
Colville High shared the Northeast A League dual meet championship last winter with Lakeside and Riverside. This time around, there is no sharingâthe Indians have annexed the NEA championship over Lakeside and Riverside outright.
The Colville Road Warriors, who have seldom been home this winter on what seems like an extended road trip, annexed a league championship last week with a 48-31 win at Lakeside. The Indians, who went through the NEA unscathed this winter, followed that up one night later with a 39-29 dual match win at Riverside.
