STEWART: Still mulling playing future
Continued from 1B
That’s why Stewart says
she’s comfortable returning to
1A Nixyaawii for her senior
season when a player of her
talent could become a major
recruit playing on the larger
stage that would be offered at
5A Pendleton. She said it’s a
choice she gets asked about
a lot, and she hasn’t made a
fi nal decision yet, but if she
does leave Nixyaawii it’s not
because she’s looking for
more exposure.
Maddern said he’s still
trying to sell her on the
idea of playing basketball
in college. It’s a harder sell
than one would imagine.
“We’ve had some
conversations about playing
in college,” he said. “For
me as a coach you can see
that would be an avenue for
her to get her school paid
for. I think deep down she
doesn’t want basketball to
defi ne who she is and I’m
just trying to tell her it’s just
a means to an end.
“I’m trying to just make
sure she keeps all her
options open. It’s gotta be
her choice so I’m trying to
not put too much pressure on
her. Whatever she decides
I will support her because
that’s her future and she’s
got to make those decisions,
and I try not to infl uence that
one way or another.”
Stewart said she’s been
contacted by a couple of
college coaches already,
but she hasn’t returned the
interest.
“I haven’t really focused
on that because I still have
next year and I’m still
thinking about it,” she said.
As for more immediate
plans, Stewart said she
hopes to have a new tattoo
to display by the next time
she takes the court. She

2 — At Anaheim, Calif.,
Jakob Silfverberg scored
the tiebreaking power-play
goal late in the second
period, and captain Ryan
Getzlaf had a goal and an
assist to lead Anaheim in
the series opener.
Rickard Rakell scored
the tying goal after Calgary
made a horrendous line
change in the second period,
and John Gibson made 30
saves for the Ducks.
Brian Elliott stopped
38 shots for the wild-card
Flames. Game 2 is Saturday
night at Honda Center.
MATHEWS:
“No it didn’t hurt. It
made me nervous, it tickled
towards the elbow,” she
said of the process, as if
opponents needed anything
else for intimidation.

Saints.
The 6-foot-7 forward
was a NWAC All-East
Region
second
team
selection in 2016-17, after
he averaged team-high
15.8 points and 10.7
rebounds per game. Over
his 46 game career for the
Timberwolves, Mathews
averaged 15 points and 9.6
rebounds per game and shot
57 percent from the fl oor.
“Jared came to BMCC
as a very skilled low post
player,” BMCC head coach
Gavin Burt said in a press
release. “His ability to
fi nish with his left and right
hand on multiple funda-
mental moves makes him
a great 4-year prospect. He
continues to work on new
angles of his game while
adding strength and size to
his frame.”
The Saint Martin’s Saints
compiled a 17-13 overall
record and a 10-10 mark
inside Greater Northwest
Athletic Conference play.
The team is coached by
Alex Pribble, who is in his
third year with the school.
Pribble said in a statement
on SMUSaints.com that
Mathews is a perfect fi t for
his team.
“Jared is a fantastic addi-
tion to the program. He is an
athletic and skilled player,
who rebounds the ball at a
high level,” Pribble said.
“He is also an extremely
high-character young man,
and will be a great represen-
tative of Saint Martin’s.”
Mathews is one of four
signees for the Saints next
season, but he will not be
the only player with ties
to Pendleton on the Saints
next season. Pendleton
High senior Caden Smith
is also signed with Saint
Martin’s and will join the
team this fall as well.

WASHINGTON
—
Toronto native Tom Wilson
scored his fi rst NHL playoff
goal 5:15 into overtime and
the Washington Capitals
survived a scare to beat
the Maple Leafs 3-2 on
Thursday night in Game 1
of their fi rst-round series.
The top-seeded Capitals
came back from a two-goal
defi cit to take the early
lead in the series and at
least momentarily stop the
panic about a slip-up. Justin
Williams scored twice in
regulation, and Washington
showed it could handle the
adversity of falling behind.
Braden Holtby was up
to the task in goal, stop-
ping 35 of the 37 shots he
faced. Toronto counterpart
Frederik Andersen was
arguably the best player on
the ice with 41 saves before
being beaten by Wilson
with an absurd shot on the
winner.
Mitch Marner and Jake
Gardiner scored in the fi rst
period for Toronto, back
in the playoffs for the fi rst
time since 2013.
Game 2 is Saturday
night in Washington.
PREDATORS
1,
BLACKHAWKS 0 — At
Chicago, Pekka Rinne
made 29 saves, Viktor
Arvidsson scored in the fi rst
period and Nashville beat
Chicago in Game 1.
Rinne’s second career
postseason shutout sent
Nashville to just its second
playoff win in Chicago in
seven tries. The Predators
did not have a 1-0 victory
during the regular season.
Corey Crawford had 19
saves for Chicago.
Game 2 is Saturday
night at the United Center.
