LYNDEN — The Sequim boys basketball team split with two strong teams at the Lynden Christian holiday tournament last weekend.
Host Lynden Christian (7-1), the eventual tourney champion, beat the Wolves (8-2) 68-52 to stop Sequim’s current winning streak at two games in the first round.
But the Wolves rebounded by starting a new winning streak by shading Sehome of Bellingham (7-3) 55-52 in the second round for third place.
The Mariners came back from a 10-point deficit entering the fourth quarter (44-34) to make the final moments of the game interesting.
Jayson Brocklesby led three players in double figures with 16 points while Gabe Carter added 13 points and 15 rebounds and Corbin Webb sank 12 points.
All three players had four assists each. Carter was 4-for-6 in the game from 3-point range.
Brocklesby also had three steals and a blocked shot while Carter had two blocked shots to go along with his game-high 15 boards.
Frank Catelli grabbed eight rebounds.
In the first game against Lynden Christian, Corbin Webb and Carter sank 17 points each.
It was Carter’s first game back from a finger injury. He was 3 of 4 from 3-point range and dished out five assists.
Webb also pulled down six rebounds.
Tim Guan added 10 points while Alex Barry and Brocklesby had two blocked shots each.
Evan Hill led the team with three steals, and he also had four assists.
The Wolves next have a crucial game at Olympic League powerhouse Kingston on Tuesday night.
