SEASIDE — Valley
Catholic had more depth,
more size and more
experience Tuesday night
against Seaside, in a Cowapa
League girls basketball game
at the Gulls’ Nest.
The Valiants also had an
18-1 lead early in the second
quarter. Yet there they were
late in the game, having
to run a spread offense to

Seaside team, 40-31.
The Gulls — playing
without junior Maddi Utti —

before outscoring Valley

half. The Gulls even pulled
to within 32-24 at the end of
the third quarter.
But Valley Catholic’s
Molly Danielson scored six
of her game-high 20 points
early in the fourth to help the
Valiants keep the lead.
Seaside coach Wally
Hamer
called
it
“a
tremendous effort tonight,”
as the Gulls “found their

“We needed to lose that
game,” Seaside coach Bill
Westerholm said. “You never
say you ‘need’ to lose a game,
but it will refocus our kids.
“We knew Valley Catholic
has a really good team,” he
added. “They’re long and
they pose some problems.
And we have to shoot the
ball better. We didn’t shoot
very well. We had open looks
in the second half, and they
just didn’t fall. We did not do
what we had to do, and move
the ball against their zone.
We’ll get better at it.”
