Coeur d’Alene girls basketball coach Dale Poffenroth said he had to coach at halftime Friday. The
Vikings were ahead 31-28 in a rematch of last year’s state championship
game, and Poffenroth didn’t like how things were going. Coeur
d’Alene made some adjustments – chiefly it started running offense
instead of shooting early and often, and the Viks pounded it inside –
as the top-ranked and defending state champs pulled away 71-55 in the
State 5A tournament semifinals at the Idaho Center. It
will be a battle of tradition and unbeatens when CdA (24-0) takes on
second-ranked Centennial (25-0) tonight. Tipoff is at 8 MST/Greg Lee, SR. More here.
