Medical Lake’s girls’ tennis team improved to a perfect 6-0 in the Northeast A League following a 4-1 win over Riverside last Tuesday. The Cards completed their NEA schedule this past Tuesday at Lakeside. “After the previous week, last week seemed downright low key,” head coach Dawn Eliassen wrote in an email. Medical Lake had come off a week with three matches in five days. Rachael Hansen claimed the win at No. 2 singles 7-6 (8-6), 6-2. “It took Rachel a set to find her...
Although the week started off rough for the Cheney High School tennis team, their comeback one day later was nothing short of impressive. Last Tuesday, the team struggled against perennial GNL top team Clarkston, losing 6-1. “They were going to be tough, and we knew that coming in. Pullman barely got them 4-3,” head coach Jesse Erickson said. “That was the first time they’ve lost in six years, so they’re pretty dominant.” Throughout the day, singles play wasn’t as consistent as previous outings, leading some to struggle again...
Medical Lake boys’ soccer coach Zane Higgins certainly liked the results his team produced last week as they rebounded from a last-minute 3-2 loss April 18 against regular season champion Lakeside. The team’s two wins, 5-1 over Newport last Tuesday and 9-0 Thursday at home against Riverside, concluded the Cardinals’ Northeast A League season and earned them a second place finish with a 6-3 record. By the time the Cardinals got a 2-1 overtime win this past Monday over Newpo...

Erin Clark’s new school record in the pole vault lasted exactly one week. The Cheney senior broke her own mark of 11 feet, 6 inches set April 18 in a dual meet with East Valley and Deer Park by going six inches higher last Thursday, winning the event and helping give the Blackhawk girls two Great Northern League wins at Colville, over the host Indians, 89-58 and West Valley, 79-70. Clark hit 12 feet for the first time, easily outdistancing the competition by 3 1/2 feet. But wh...
Four runs in both the first and second innings proved too much for the Cheney baseball team to overcome in an 11-2 Great Northern League home loss last Tuesday to East Valley. Starter Tanner Smith’s knuckleball was “not sharp,” manager Randy Elam said, allowing four runs in the first and facing just one hitter in the second. Alex Berman came on in relief and also fell victim to the Knights’ bats, giving up four runs as well in one inning of work. Austin Harding relieved Berman in the third and “did a nice job,” Elam said,...

The Lady Hawks loaded the bases on three straight hits by Cheyenne Wright, Amy Anderson and Katie Bethel, scoring on Adriana Suiter’s b...
Sometimes it doesn’t matter how you win, you just need to win. The Cheney boys’ soccer team notched a pair of victories in just such a fashion last week, and in the process earned their second consecutive Great Northern League regular season title. The Blackhawks got unassisted goals from Daniel Bogart, 26th minute, and Micah Weller, 47th minute for a hard-fought, 2-0 road win last Tuesday in Clarkston, and turned around less than 48 hours later to produced a 3-2 shootout win at Pullman Thursday. Cheney hasn’t lost a boys’ GN...
