The home tournament, which will include teams from Reedsport, North Bend, Marshfield, South Umpqua, Springfield, Thurston and others, will begin at 9 a.m. Last weekend at Strike City in Eugene, the girls team took first place and the boys teams were fourth and 14th, respectively. Siuslaw’s varsity 1 team remained in the top four through the first round of 20 baker games to reach the qualifying round at Strike City, but lost to Cottage Grove in the semifinals despite bowling a tourna- ment-high 246 in the second game against the Billies. They then lost to Marshfield in the match for third place. The girls will host a tour- ney at Holiday Bowl on Saturday, Jan. 7. • SHS BB J. C ITY I NV . GIRLS AT 5:30 P . M . BOYS AT 7 P . M .

Both Mapleton teams were strug- gling with depleted lineups due to dif- ferent reasons. For the girls, who were the first to tip off, the Lady Sailors’ lineup has only seven players to begin with. Against the Braves, the starting five for Mapleton — senior Josi Hays and sophomores Erin Michael, Bailey Mapleton sophomore Gabe Simington leaps for the tipoff against Reedsport. Simington had 7 points and 7 boards for Mapleton. Messick, Alyssa West and Haley Wells — left an empty bench and no relief. By comparison, the Braves had nearly three times as many players, 13 in all, including four starting seniors. The disparity in numbers and expe- rience left the Lady Sailors outmanned See SAILORS 4B Siuslaw teams narrowly nipped by Cubs From left: Siuslaw’s Nikki Launius and Trent Reavis.

In the girls game, senior guard Destinie Tatum doubled her efforts See SIUSLAW 3B MID COAST LAKES Holdover trout will be available in most lakes. Fishing for the various warm water fish species will slow as water tempera- tures cool. There are numerous lakes in the Florence area that can pro- vide good opportunity. Siltcoos and Tahkenitch lakes are open for wild coho until Dec. 31. Fishing has been fair to slow. Casting spinners near the weed lines and trolling plugs or spinners can be effective on fish that recently entered the lake. SIUSLAW RIVER: Chinook The Siuslaw River and bay is open for Chinook salmon. Fishing is slow. Trolling herring in the lower bay is an effective technique. Eggs and bob- ber can be productive in the upper bay and river.
