A look at local athletes and athletics.

Local places in race

Jan Gifford of North Bend placed second with her team in the Tail of the Lake Regatta held recently on Lake Union. Dave Scott of Carnation also placed in the “Mixed Master’s” class, finishing third with his eight-plus team. Both row for the Sammamish Rowing Association.


Turner helping Lutes

Former Mount Si volleyball standout Stephanie Turner recently helped the Pacific Lutheran University Lutes notch wins. Turner’s kill gave the Lutes match point in one of the matches and she eventually went on to record 23 kills against Willamette. Against Linfield, she recorded 17 kills but the team lost in three matches.
