SVC Gold team places second at 40-team tourney
Over the Feb. 14-16 week-
end, both Siuslaw Club Vol-
leyball 14u teams were on the
road in Eugene to participate
in one of the biggest tourna-
ments in the state: the three-
day Presidents Day Tourna-
ment.
The tournament included
40 total 14u teams, with the
SVC 14u gold team placing
second overall.
“We played some of the
best teams in the state. Al-
though we did not get the re-
sults we ultimately wanted, I
am still so proud of each and
every one of these girls,” said
coach Lona Dengler. “They
played their hearts out on the
court and really came togeth-
er as a team.”
Dengler said that Ava Cen-
ter was a large part of the
team’s success on the court,

The Viks struggled on the
court the first half of the
game, entering halftime trail-
ing 25-19.
“We kind of made some
mental mistakes that kind of
shot us in the foot, but we
communicated at halftime
that our defense was playing
pretty well,” Perry said.

“Meika not only domi-
nated serving, but also had
a standout weekend in the
back row,” Dengler said of
Shappell, who had 61 digs
for the team.
“This team has improved
so much since the begin-
ning of our season, and that
reflected on the court this
weekend,” said Dengler.
“This was such a great week-
end of volleyball that I know
myself, the parents — and
more importantly the girls —
will remember forever.”
For the season, the gold
team had 20 wins and 8 loss-
es.
The next and final tourna-
ment will be next weekend,

half.
“That was pretty tough, so
we communicated what we
needed to do,” Perry said.
And the Viks followed
through, outscoring the Tigers
in the third and fourth quar-
ters, resulting in 35-35 tie to
end the fourth quarter and
force the game into overtime.
“That’s a total of 12 points
in the last 20 minutes of the
game,” Perry pointed out.
“When you do that in high
school basketball, you’ll most
likely win some games.”
And they did, dominating
overtime with 8 points com-
pared to the Tiger’s 2.
Standouts of the game
include Braydon Thronton,
who led scoring with 14
points.
“He was all over the place
again — dribble driving, cre-
ating shots for himself and his
teammates,” Perry said.
“There’s not a lot of kids in the
4A that can guard him one-
on-one, and Junction City
plays man quite a bit. So, him
being able to break down his
defender and then making
other guys come over and help
creates shots for our team-
mates.”
Brody Terry added 9 points
from the game, including 4
from the free throw line in
overtime to clinch the win.
“I thought Avery Heart had
a really good game as well,”
Perry said. “I told him I really
needed him to step up for us
to be as good as we can — and
he delivered. He came in and
did exactly what we needed
him to do. He was great on
rebounding and made layups
when Braydon would drive.
Avery was where he needed to
be to get the ball and score
layups.”
The Viks went to Junction
City on last night for a Sky-
Em League playoff. A win
would cecure a state playoff,
though the power rankings
could also potentially secure a
spot for the No. 21 team — if
No. 20 Newport falters this
week.
“Newport is right in front
of us, and they have two tough
games as well,” said Perry.
“The power rankings are hard
to predict on how they’re
going to play out from each
game to game.”
The power rankings won’t
be finalized until this Tuesday.
For the girls, Tuesday saw

seniors Mia Collins, Lindsey
Long, Savannah Morris,

Eagles, 41-58.
Morris finished out her
