SMS Eagles soar
In a good display of basketball skill and determination,
the Snoqualmie Eagles eighth-grade girls’ varsity team powered its way to
victory over Maywood 55-38.
The competition was fierce as both teams battled back and forth into
the fourth quarter. Kaycee Crossan set the tone early with her aggressive
defense and command of the offense. Maggie Kujath played tough under the
boards, grabbing rebounds, while Rachel Travis sizzled the nets from inside
and outside to help gain control of the tightly contested ball game.
Amy Trenkamp and Whitney Chelgren sliced through
Maywood’s defense for a combined 14 points, with Kujath popping in another
eight. Rachel Travis proved too tough to handle for Maywood defenders,
pouring in a game-high 29 points, helping the Eagles improve their record to
3-1.

17 points. Others in the game were Amy Stauch, Emily White and

and McConkey were selected defensive players of the game. Marissa Hill

Pine Lake in the best game of the season so far. The lead changed hands

on top 36-32.

Heaps with eight, Lauren McConkey with seven, Shannon Posey with five
and Marie Will with 11. Marissa Hill, Michelle Avery and Amy Stauch
were also a big part of the game.
McConkey led the team in rebounds with eleven and blocked
shots with two. Posey led in steals with five.
“Pine Lake is an exceptional team and we played very well
against them,” said coach Dick Kirby.
“Like always, we were oversized but everyone worked very hard. We are
developing a very consistent starting team and a bench to help,” he added.
Marie Will and Lauren McConkey were selected offensive players of
the game. Shannon Posey, Brittany Heap and Marie Will were selected as
defensive players of the game. Marissa Hill and Emilie Aaltonan were
selected best off the bench.
