Some women’s basketball news to catch up with from Thursday, with several local players having big nights.
First, the game tonight is Gonzaga at Eastern Washington. It’s the first home game for the Eagles after five straight on the road. We’ll miss that one for hockey duties but we’ll get the word out through Twitter (SRtrim) as time permits from the Arena.
Sophomore Katie Baker (Lake City) had 19 points and 12 rebounds as Montana, which hosts Gonzaga on Sunday, beats Denver at the buzzer. … Senior Kelli Valentine (Mead), who was honored before the game for surpassing 1,000 points, had a big second half as Portland State beat Hawaii. … Senior Dara Zack (University) responded to being named the Great Northwest Conferce Player of the Week with a conference record 12 offensive rebounds among her 20 boards as Saint Martin’s edged Central Washington to open league play. Zack had 14 points and senior Roni Jo Mielke (Sprague-Harrington) had a game-high 19; freshman Kelsi Jacobson (East Valley) had 11 off the bench for Central.
