win by North Bend at Douglas.
Against the Lancers, Siuslaw’s tradi-
tionally ironclad zone defense was
unable to keep South Umpqua from hit-
ting from the perimeter, forcing the
Viks out of their normal set. The result
was open looks for the Lancers as well
as early foul trouble for the Viks that
Siuslaw boys basketball coach Dylan
Perry said that getting a win at South

Richard Huff (113 lbs.) and sophomore
Riley Jennings (152 lbs.) each
advanced to Saturday’s quarterfinals on
pins during the tournament’s opening

Sierra (145 lbs.) and Nick Steinman
(160 lbs.) — eliminated by the end of
day one, and freshman Matthew
Horrillo (285 lbs,) reaching consola-

at this invitational,” said Siuslaw coach
Neil Wartnik.
