S
T. HELENS — St. Helens tried to
run with the Gulls, in a nonleague
girls basketball game Dec. 28 at St.
Helens.
And that was a big mistake by
the Lions, as Seaside cruised past the former
Cowapa League team, 82-46.
“St. Helens wanted to press the tempo and
get into a track meet,” said Seaside coach
Mike Hawes. “Fortunately we had the best
runner.”
That was Seaside senior Maddi Utti, who
scored 31 points, with eight rebounds, seven
assists and six steals.
“Maddi was Maddi, but we had contri-
butions from everyone,” Hawes said. “Lucy
Bodner continues to give us good play, and
Gretchen Hoekstre and Anesha Smart played
their best games. Annaka Garhofer came off
the bench for a career-high 14, including three
treys. Everybody played well and contribut-
ed.”
TRINITY
TURNER
Sophomore
A sophomore swing player for
the Lady Gulls, Turner performed
well in the Seaside junior varsi-
ty’s recent tournament at Glad-
stone. The team, coached by Tia
Abbey, also owns a winning re-
cord, with seven sophomores on
the roster. Turner also had one of
two Seaside blocked shots in a
varsity win at St. Helens.
Pirates 56, Gulls 51
COOS BAY — Marshfield trailed 13-2 just
minutes into the game, but the Pirates man-
aged to overcome the big first half deficit to
score a 56-51 overtime victory over Seaside,
in a back-and-forth nonleague girls basketball
game Dec. 21.
Tess Garrett’s basket with six seconds
left in regulation tied the game at 48-48, and
the Pirates outscored the Gulls 8-3 in the ex-
tra quarter to snap Seaside’s five-game win
streak.
Maddi Utti and Sydney Villegas scored
eight points apiece in the first half, as the Gulls
left the floor with a 28-24 lead at the break.
The Pirates opened the third quarter on
a 10-0 run, highlighted by 3-pointers from
Brandi Thompson and Ravyn Miranda.
But a career game for Seaside’s Bryre Bab-
bitt kept the Gulls in it throughout the second
half, as the junior scored three consecutive
buckets towards the end of the third period to
bring Seaside to within 39-38, and her layup
with 45 seconds left in regulation gave the
Gulls a 45-44 lead.
Marshfield answered with a score at the

a large role for the Gulls in the

Garrett scored the equalizer with six sec-

COOS BAY — The Seaside
Gulls did not score their usual 80-
plus points — or even 60-plus —
but the Gulls showed that they can
still win on an off night, as they
escaped Marshfield with a 56-46
win over the Pirates in a nonleague
boys basketball game Dec. 21 at
Coos Bay.
Seaside was held to a sea-
son-low in points, and even trailed
32-29 late in the third quarter, fol-
lowing a layup and score by Marsh-
field’s Scott Clough, who finished
with a game-high 26 points.
But Jackson Januik’s score at
the buzzer to end the third period
gave the Gulls a 33-32 lead, and
Seaside would not trail again.
Hunter Thompson connected
on a 3-pointer early in the fourth,
Chase Januik scored underneath,
and Duncan Thompson’s bank shot
had the Gulls in front with five
minutes left, 42-37.
Still, the Pirates closed to within
45-44, before Seaside was able to
close it out at the free throw line,
where the Gulls were 10-for-12 in
the fourth quarter, as three Marsh-
field starters fouled eventually
fouled out.
Chase Januik led Seaside with
18 points, followed by Jackson
Januik with 16.
