It was a tale of two halves for the
Mapleton girls Friday night, as they
played the third place Lakers (6-2) to
a virtual stalemate during the first
two periods.
Trailing 18-16 entering the half,
the Lady Sailors quickly found
themselves down 28-16 just four
minutes into the third quarter.
The only scoring for the Sailors
came from freshman post Alyssa
Richards, who sank two baskets in
the period as Triangle Lake moved
ahead 34-20 to start the final quarter.
Richards went on to lead
Mapleton with 13 points, nine
rebounds, one steal and two blocked
shots.
Alexis Gierke and Destiny Weber
had four points each, along with two
points each from Hannah Rodet and
Josi Hays. The Lakers began the
fourth period with four consecutive
steals to take a 40-20 lead en route to
a 46-26 win.
In the boys game, the Sailors kept
things close throughout the first

The coho salmon fish-
eries in Siltcoos and
Tahkenitch lakes are slow
to fair. This time of year is
typically the most produc-
tive. Recent rains and big
tide should help to move
new fish into the lakes.
The West Lake Boat
Ramp at Siltcoos has been
close for repairs but there
is a neighboring private
ramp that can be utilized.
Look to fish near the lake
outlet and by the major
tributaries that enter the
lakes. Casting or trolling
spinners or various plugs
can be effective.
