The Cedarcrest boys ended the millennium on a down note,

losing their ninth consecutive game of the basketball season last week on

the road to North Kitsap, 72-63.

Seniors Michael Smith and Ryan Dunn led the Red Wolves’

offense. The team is now off until Jan. 4 when they resume KingCo action by

taking on the Liberty Patriots in Renton.

Meanwhile, the undefeated girls basketball team will put their

undefeated record on the line when they play in Southern California this

week as part of a four-team tournament in Orange County.

The Cedarcrest girls have lost all three KingCo league games, but

are 2-0 in non-conference clashes. Results from the road trip will appear in

next week’s edition of The Valley Record.

The girl Red Wolves will resume KingCo play on Jan. 5 when they

host their counterparts from Liberty in Duvall. Two days later they will

travel across the Valley to take on Mount Si in Snoqualmie.
