Pirates sailing to State

In a 2A district tournament state play-in match at Lewis-Clark State’s P1FCU Activity Center, Prairie of Cottonwood swept Potlatch, closing things out 25-22 in the third to punch its first ticket to State in six years.

The Loggers finish their season with a record of 18-7. Prairie will return to action for the Idaho Class 2A state tournament on Thursday through Saturday of next week at Jerome High School.

Bengals, Hawks split

RATHDRUM, Idaho — Kicking off a best two-of-three Class 5A district tournament championship series with a doubleheader, visiting Lewiston pulled off a five-set victory over Lakeland of Rathdrum before falling in four for a split.

The Bengals took the first match with a scoreline of 25-22, 19-25, 25-23, 17-25, 15-11, while the Hawks prevailed 25-20, 25-13, 20-25, 25-19 in the second.

Having dropped both regular-season meetings with the hosts, the Bengals (18-8) “went in mindfully trying to play as a team together” and showed “determination and resilience” while “also having a ton of fun” in the course of turning the tables, according to coach Halle White. She attributed the reversal in the day’s second match to a drop in energy for Lewiston after the Herculean effort of pulling out the opener.

Addy McKarcher (33 kills, four blocks), Brooke Bernal (38 digs) and Emery McKarcher (61 assists, 16 digs, seven kills) were among the day’s stat leaders for Lewiston in what White called a very “spread out” team performance.

Lewiston visits Lakeland again for a rubber match on Saturday at 6 p.m. with the district title and a berth to State on the line.
