November 30th
It could be another interesting winter for Colville High girlâs basketball.
The Indians, who finished 17-5 last season, lost five key seniors off a veteran club, but they return a solid nucleus of players and some promising newcomers that could pull some surprises in the competitive Northeast A League this winter.
Colville also returns a couple of familiar names and faces that have been actively involved with Colville girlâs basketball for many years.
What is likely one of the most inexperienced girlâs basketball teams in the Northeast 2B League (Bi-County) this winter will get the 2011-2012 season underway this week.
Kettle Falls High opened the season on Tuesday at the an nual Chewelah Jamboree. The Lady Bulldogs will open their regular season on Thursday at Kettle Falls against Selkirk. Game time is 5:45 p.m.
KFHS will travel to Chewelah for another non-league date on Friday. Game-time against the Northeast A League member Cougars is 5:30 p.m.

Colville High volleyball coach Missy Bennett holds up WIAA championship trophy hardware after the Indians downed Castle Rock Saturday night. Bennett has gotten close to a state title before, getting two teams in her 20-plus year run to the championship. âI think Iâll hold on to this for awhile,â she said.
Colville poses with the schoolâs first state volleyball championship hardware. Back row, from left: Assistant coaches Anne Cecil and Michawn Vining, Tyra Brons, Aubrey Buckner, Joellee Buckner, Sadie Learn, Jacy Vining, Jessi Glidewell, Taryn Main, Hannah Smith, Leanna Carr and head coach, Missy Bennett.

Colville High seniors Erin Little, Lexi Lehman, Ryley Wittmeyer, Ashley Knight and Tasji Urhausen reflect on a memorable 2011 volleyball season in a post-championship interview with former CHS teacher, coach and longtime âVoice of the Valley,â KCVL/KCRK sports announcer, Larry Pember.
In a game played alternately in rain and snow, Royal came from behind in the second half to post a wild 38-35 win over host Colville Saturday afternoon and advance to the quarterfinals of the State 1A football playoffs. Colvilleâs (5-5) unlikely run into the playoffs after an 0-4 start looked like it might continue after the Indians took an early 14-0 lead.

Colville annexes regional
Top-ranked Colville High rolled through the Region 6/7 volleyball tournament at Chelan last Saturday, beating Cascade 25-15, 25-12, 25-20 and then downing Freeman (for the fourth time this season) in the regional championship, 25-21, 25-9, 25-19.

Pietroburgo, Carpenter lead Indians to second again
Saving their best race of the season for last, Colville High Schoolâs boyâs cross-country team ran its way to second place at the Washington State Championship Saturday at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco.
In what have must have felt like dĂ©jĂ vu, the local harriers, led by senior Biagio Pietroburgoâs fifth place and Kevin Carpenterâs 8th place finish, annexed the runner-up spot behind Northeast A League rival Lakeside. It was Colvilleâs second straight runner-up finish at Pasco.

Itâs playoff time around the Northeast Washington prep sports scene.
High school football playoffs (Crossover/so-called Play-in games) are the featured events this weekend. Colville will host Omak and their Caribou-Trail League Player of the Year, 5-9, 215-pound running back Dylan Green.
Green, who holds most of the No. 4 seeded Pioneers rushing records, including a school single game mark established earlier this season, was also named to the first team defense as a line backer.
The burly senior is a load and is the focal point of any op posing defense.
