PFHS Girls Stop CHS, LCHS Back-to-Back
Look who has the momentum now. It wasn’t improbable, but the Post Falls High girls basketball team pulled off victories in back-to-back nights that some may have thought implausible. Some, that is, except the Trojans. After knocking off second-ranked and Inland Empire League champ Coeur d’Alene 47-44 on Thursday, Post Falls held off defending 5A state champ Lake City, 55-51, Friday at The Arena. With the sweep, the Trojans (17-3 overall, 9-3) vaulted past Lake City (13-5, 8-3) to secure the second seed in the Region I tournament that begins Feb. 1 at Elmer Jordan Court. The two teams turn around and face off in a regional opener in the first game at 5:30. In the second game, Coeur d’Alene (18-2, 11-1) will take on No. 4 Lewiston (10-10, 7-5) at 7/Greg Lee, Sportslink/SR. More here.
