Cheney High girls basketball head coach Shannon Root learned a few things about her team, and something about herself in her first season as the Lady Hawks varsity head coach. Cheney finished 2013-2014 with a 5-15 record overall, 3-9 in Great Northern League play, making the post-season as the sixth seed and losing in the first round of the league playoffs to Clarkston, 71-49. None of the Lady Hawks games was closer than nine points, in either column, but, with only a few exceptions, Root doesn’t feel her team was blown o...
Long after this season ends for the Eastern Washington University men's basketball team, some might look back and remember how it was Troy Huff's rebound basket at the buzzer that beat the Eagles 69-67 and kept them from earning their first sweep of a Big Sky Conference road trip in a decade. Lost, however, will be the many other opportunities the Eagles had to get the win at the Betty Englestadt Sioux Center, and maybe build a better foundation on their quest to get back to...
The tears streaking down her cheeks as senior Laura Hughes walked off the court last Saturday were unmistakable. They were the final punctuation mark on last Saturday’s 61-57 Big Sky Conference loss to North Dakota at Reese Court as the Eagle women closed out their home schedule. North Dakota pried away a victory scoring the game’s final seven points. At stake was the slim possibility that Eastern might be able to win the conference championship they were predicted to capture...
The Eastern Washington women's basketball team lost both their seven-game home winning streak and traction in their late-season bid to catch the University of North Dakota for the Big Sky Conference championship, last Saturday on Senior Day at Reese Court. The Eagles watched as the league leading visitors from Grand Forks scored the game's final seven points, erasing the Eagles' 57-54 lead with 3 minutes, 22 seconds remaining and score a 61-57 win. Eastern entered the...
Ronnie Hamlin and that trademark hair flowing out of his helmet will return for another season with the Eastern Washington University football team. Nearing the school record with a current career total of 361 tackles in 40 games, the Eagles' linebacker and Buck Buchanan Award candidate will return for the 2014 season after recently being given a sixth year by the NCAA. The extra year of eligibility replaces two seasons wiped out because of injuries. He is a 2009 graduate of...
By Dr. E. KIRESTEN PETERS Contributor Every time I fill my gas tank, I see the notice on the pump that explains part of the fuel I’m buying is ethanol. Ethanol is alcohol, a type of biofuel rather than fossil fuel. While biofuels can be good to promote national energy independence and possibly help with greenhouse gas emissions, the ethanol in our gasoline is made from corn. (The starch in the corn is broken down into sugars that are then fermented into alcohol.) With corn ethanol, we are essentially putting food into our g...
