The Spokane Blue Devils will take a boost of confidence into this weekend’s Best of the Northwest baseball tournament at Central Valley High School following a solid performance in the Missoula Tournament last weekend. “We played pretty well over there,” BD coach Tony Byrne said following a third place finish and some quality wins, including one over the eventual champions from Casper, Wyo. Spokane got off to a slow start losing to runner-up Missoula 23-7 in their opene...
Medical Lake’s Kasey Kelly will not participate in Saturday’s Earl Barden Classic All-Star football game at Yakima’s East Valley High School after suffering an oblique strain injury. Kelly, who was on the East team roster as free safety in the game featuring players from 2A/1A/2B/1B schools, sustained the injury to the stomach area during a recent batting practice session for the Spokane Crew baseball team....
Medical Lake’s AA American Legion baseball team might be running on empty after playing 10 games in 11 days and their three straight losses might be proof. So having the better part of this past week off from games, head coach Kerry Kelly is grateful for five days off. Medical Lake was able to sneak in a Monday night doubleheader around scattered thundershowers that dodged Colville long enough for the home team to score a sweep with wins of 7-4 and 18-8. Those setbacks came o...
It was a good way to spend Father’s Day for Cheney’s AA American Legion baseball team. Not only was part of it spent at the ballpark at Al K. Jackson Field, but the SummerHawks ended with an 8-1 win over Shadle Park in a week where they won four of five games. Tanner “Bubba” Smith showed no hint of rust after not taken to the mound in a month and a half and pitched a four-hitter. “He was brilliant on the mound, six strikeouts and no walks,” his coach, Randy Elam, wrote in an e...
I had a brief panic attack last week. The cause of my sudden apprehension was a name, or rather the correct spelling thereof. I was in Spokane at The Engravers on Monroe picking up end-of-season trophies for the kids in the Challenger Division of West Plains Little League. I had sent in the names for the trophies and was going through them when I came to one for a young girl named Caitlin – and briefly got lightheaded. On the trophy, her name was spelled with a “C” and for a moment I thought I might have sent in the wrong...
Medical Lake Parks and Recreation Department tennis clinic participant Nolan Mathley sets his sights on a return serve during last week’s clinic. The classes ran for four days and taught participants ages 6 through 13 the basics of the game....
Having five head coaches leave their positions at the end of the school year isn’t a situation Cheney High School athletic director Jim Missel has faced before. But it’s one the Blackhawks’ sports program finds itself in as 2012-2013 draws to a close, although two of those positions have now been filled. Missel’s dilemma began at the end of the winter sports season when Lady Hawks’ basketball head coach Jennifer Harmer resigned after only two seasons. Harmer replaced former he...
