Dawgs Romero and Elliott Hermiston Sparks win
state basketball title
to play in All-Star Classic
By ANNIE FOWLER
SPORTS EDITOR
SWX ALL-STAR CLASSIC
Basketball season may be
over for most, but for two
Hermiston players, there is
one more game to go.
Senior Jazlyn Romero
and sophomore Chase
Elliott were selected to play
in the SWX All-Star Clas-
sic on Sunday at Kamiakin
High School in Kennewick.
“It will be exciting,
there is a lot of talent in
the Mid-Columbia Confer-
ence,” said Romero, who
is playing in her first Clas-
sic. “I didn’t really expect
it. Obviously, I’m not too
happy with how my career
ended. This is a redemption
game. It will be fun.”
Elliott is one of two soph-
omores on the roster.
“I was definitely sur-
prised with there being
so many good kids in the
league,” Elliott said of the
invite. “I didn’t even play
the whole season.”
Elliott, who broke his left
leg in football, missed all
of the Bulldogs’ December
games before returning Jan.
3 against Southridge.
The Classic, in its 25th
year, pits the Tri-City area
schools against those from
Yakima. The Tri-City girls
hold a 20-8 advantage, and
have won the past 10 games.
The Yakima boys lead the
series 22-6.
In the early years of the
event, there were sepa-
rate games for the large and
small schools. Now they are
combined.
Tri-City Boys
Coach: Bryan Edwards, Columbia Basin College
Roster: Chase Elliott, so., Hermiston; Steven Westermeyer,
jr., Kamiakin; Dylan Ashbeck, sr., Walla Walla; Ayoni Benavi-
dez, sr., Kennewick; Cooper DeWitt, sr., Chiawana; Messiah
Jones, jr., Kamiakin; Michael Cornia, jr., Walla Walla; Taylor
Perez, jr., Chiawana; Tristan Smith, sr., Southridge; Andrew
Albrecht, jr., Richland; William Bailey III, sr., River View;
Grant McClure, jr., Liberty Christian; Jayden Martinez, jr.,
Chiawana; Connor Mendez, so., Chiawana; Kyson Rose, sr.,
Kamiakin.
Tri-City Girls
Coach: Roosevelt Smith, Columbia Basin College
Roster: Alyssa Agundis, sr., Chiawana; Iliana Moran, so.,
Hanford; Jayda Clark, jr., Richland; Rian Clear, sr., Walla Walla;
Nikole Thomas, fr., Kamiakin; Delaney Pink, jr., Chiawana;
Aislin Fiander, sr., Kennewick; Madison Smith, jr., Con-
nell; MeiLani McBee, sr., Kennewick; Madeline Gebers, jr.,
Kennewick; Jazlyn Romero, sr., Hermiston; Amani Davis, jr.,
Kamiakin; Talia von Oelhoffen, jr., Chiawana; Jadyn Johnson,
sr., Columbia-Burbank; A’niyah Heavens, so., Pasco.
Elliott, who led the Bull-
dogs in scoring with 12.15
points a game, said he went
on YouTube to watch some
of the past games to get a
feel for what he is in for.
“I have to not play
scared,” he said. “It’s an all-
star game — it’s flashy and
the best players in the league
are out there. It will be
extremely nice to play with
the kids who dominated us
all season.”
Elliott will get to play
with, instead of against,
Kamiakin’s 6-foot-9 Kyson
Rose, and Chiawana’s 6-6
Cooper DeWitt.
“I’ve never had a cen-
ter that big,” Elliott said of
Rose.

time.
“I was in weight room
and I got a text from the
SWX guy,” said Romero,
who averaged 11.75 points a
game. “I showed it to coach
(Emilee) Strot, and she said,
‘You get one more game,
that’s awesome.’ It’s my last
game ever. I’m just going to
go out and have some fun.”
The girls game will tip
off at 4 p.m., with the boys
game to follow. The event
also will feature a 3-point
shooting contest between
the boys and the girls.
