Sports: Forks girls defeat Clallam Bay

FORKS — McKinnon Hanson had 25 points and six steals as the Forks High School girls basketball team rushed to a 52-39 nonleague win over Clallam Bay on Tuesday.

The Spartans (3-1 overall, 0-1 Southwest Washington League) used pressing defense to go on a 24-point tear in the second quarter.

Colleen Silcox added 13 points and 11 rebounds for Forks while Kaci Price scored 10.

Whitney Taber led Clallam Bay (1-1) with 13 points and Suzanne Goplen-Dean added 10.

King’s West 54, Crescent 27

BREMERTON — Tiffany Winters scored 10 points and Ruth Wilhelm added nine but it was far from enough as King’s West doubled the Loggers (2-2) in nonleague play.

“They shot the ball very well,” Crescent coach Terry Kahler said of the Warriors.

“They’re always up in the thick of it (in the postseason). It kind of gives us an idea of what we’re going to face if we end up in Tri-Districts.”

Kristin Anderson led the Warriors with 15 points.

FORKS — Clallam Bay knocked off Forks in nonleague play for the third year in a row.

This time, however, the Class B Bruins needed overtime to beat the 2A Spartans.

Danny Angulo led Clallam Bay (2-1) with 23 points and 10 rebounds and Clallam Bay extended its streak against Forks despite missing five players, including one starters, due to illness.

The regular starters who did play made it count. Dylan Simmons scored 12 points and Melchor Ramos added 11. Brad Reamer did it all with seven points, six assists and eight steals.

Forks (2-2 overall, 1-0 Southwest Washington League) was led by the 15 points of Kevin Silcox and 14 of Shawn Cole. D.J. Huggins added eight.

The game was tied at 47 at the end of regulation and at 36 entering the fourth quarter.
