IN BRIEF
Warriors rack up
83 points in win
WARRENTON — The War-
renton girls basketball team
opened the season with a
record-breaking win Friday night
at home, 83-6 over Waldport.
Four players scored in double
figures for the Warriors, led by
Tyla Little with 18.
Rachel Dyer hit four 3-pointers
on her way to 16 points, Landree
Miethe scored 14 and Fernanda
Alvarez added 11 for Warren-
ton, which tied the school record
for the fifth-most points in a sin-
gle game (83 vs. Oregon Episco-
pal in 2010).
The Warriors also limited an
opponent to just six points for
the first time (on record) since a
28-6 win over Westport in 1926-
27, when the Warrenton girls were
coached by “Mrs. Lee.”
Warrenton’s record for most
points in a game is still 92, vs.
Catlin Gabel in 2002. Waldport
has now lost 63 games in a row,
going back to the 2013-14 season.
Boomers edge
Loggers, 47-44
KNAPPA — The Knappa
Lady Loggers committed 41 turn-
overs and trailed by 14 points
in the fourth quarter, but a late
rally brought them to within
three points of Toledo, before the
Boomers were able to close out a
47-44 win over Knappa.
Toledo’s Raeann Hogle scored
19 points in the first round game
of the Loggers’ Tip-Off Classic.
Kaitlyn Landwehr and Devin
Vandergriff scored 12 points
apiece and also had five steals
each for the Loggers, while Paris
Vanderburg had seven rebounds.
Lady Jays win
again, 30-28
JEWELL — The Jewell Lady
Jays are quickly rising to the top
of 1A girls basketball, as the Lady
Jays won for the third time in four
days Saturday, 30-28 over South-
west Christian.
Jewell is the only 3-0 team at
the Class 1A level, and the Jays
have two more home games this
week as they begin Casco League
play.
In Saturday’s win, Emma Guil-
len scored 11 points with seven
rebounds, and teammate Heidi
Hollenbach added eight points
and pulled down 18 boards.
Southwest Christian led 2-1
after one quarter, before Jewell
fought back to take a 9-8 halftime
lead.
Balanced Blazers beat Bulls
112-110 for 3rd straight win
By JAY COHEN

CHICAGO — Damian Lillard
and the Portland Trail Blazers learned
from last month’s blowout loss to
Chicago.
They turned that knowledge into
their own road win Monday night.
Lillard had 30 points and seven
assists, CJ McCollum scored 24 and
the Trail Blazers beat the Bulls 112-
110 for their third consecutive victory.
Portland had won five of six before
Chicago visited the Moda Center on
Nov. 15 and rolled to a 113-88 win.
That loss started the Blazers on a bit
of a slide, but they are rounding into
form again.
“I think the game in Portland
helped us prepare for what kind of
game it was going to be,” Lillard said.
“We saw how physical they were.
They compete on both ends of the
floor. ... We just came in with the right
mindset, knowing what to expect.”
Allen Crabbe added 17 points for
Portland, which opened a five-game
trip with its fourth win in five games.
Maurice Harkless had 11 and Evan
Turner finished with 10, providing a
nice boost in the fourth quarter.
“I’m really pleased the way we
responded after the way they beat us
the first time,” Trail Blazers coach
Terry Stotts said.
Dwyane Wade scored 34 points
for the Bulls, and Jimmy Butler fin-
ished with 26 points, seven rebounds
and five assists. Robin Lopez had
seven points and a season-high 14
rebounds.
Chicago played without point
guard Rajon Rondo, suspended one
game for conduct detrimental to the
team. There was no public indica-
tion from the Bulls on what triggered
Rondo’s suspension. He is expected
to return Tuesday night in Detroit.
“He’s obviously very important
TILLAMOOK — Teams from
District 1/4A officially opened the
2016-17 swim season Saturday, in the
annual Tillamook Invitational.
The Tillamook girls and Newport
boys won the team titles, as the Cubs
racked up 455 points for their cham-
pionship, well ahead of Taft (196),
Scappoose (129) and Astoria (125).
The Seaside girls had four sec-
ond-place event finishes, with two
from sophomore Kendy Lin.
Lin swam the 100-yard freestyle
in 1 minute, 1.11 seconds to place
behind Tillamook’s Kara Putman;
Guillen scores
17 in win
SCOREBOARD
JEWELL — The Jewell girls
opened the weekend with an easy
40-7 win over St. Stephens Acad-
emy Friday night, the first of four
straight home games for the Lady
Jays.
Jewell built a 34-0 halftime
lead against the new school,
competing in its first year of 1A
basketball.
Emma Guillen led the Lady
Jays with 17 points and 10
rebounds, followed by Lily
Kaczenski with eight points and
four steals. Ashley Wammack
also had 10 rebounds, and Gabi
Morales had four steals.
