If the Spokane Blue Devils AAA American Legion baseball team want some type of idea of how much things have improved since last year, for now at least, they will look at their Saturday, June 13 outing in Yakima. The Blue Devils earned a split in a nonleague doubleheader with Yakima Pepsi Pak, the defending AAA state champions, winning 5-4 and losing 7-2. And not only did the Blue Devils topple one of the state’s premiere Legion programs, but they did so very much shorthanded....
It took a little while for Medical Lake’s veteran tennis coach, Dawn Eliassen, to realize that it was her boys, and maybe not the defending Northeast A League champion girls that were going to excel in 2015. “It didn’t really occur to me that it was possible until we were at Lakeside early in the season, maybe our third match,” Eliassen said. “We lost it, but shouldn’t have.” That’s when it clicked into place for her that there was a ton of potential in the boys and coache...
The Cheney 17U Summerhawks baseball team split a tough doubleheader against the Apple Valley Blues last Saturday, losing game one 18-7 and winning the nightcap 8-7. Cheney fought an uphill battle in game one as Apple Valley started with a 4-0 lead, scoring off three fielding errors. The Blues controlled the game from there, scoring 18 runs off 10 hits. The Summerhawks went through a cycle of pitchers with Phillip Murray (0-1), Jack Peabody, Dylan Vercoe and Austin Johnson...
The visit of Lord Stanley’s Cup will have to wait at least another year. And if that is the case a year or so from now, local hockey favorite son Tyler Johnson’s wrist injury just might be healed so he can heft the trophy around for the day that each member of the winning team takes it home. Johnson’s Tampa Bay Lightning lost 2-0 in game six of the 2015 Stanley Cup playoffs in a series where every other game was decided by one goal. Even for non-hockey fans, it was rivet...
It was fitting that the rubber match between the Cheney Free Press and Rosa's Pizza took place in the Majors championship game at Waterfront Park in Medical Lake last Saturday. CFP came back to defeat Rosa's, 10-9 and win their second Majors title. Rosa's Pizza took an early lead with two runs in the first inning. Down 7-1, CFP started their comeback by scoring four runs in the fourth inning. After being down 9-6 in the bottom of the sixth inning, CFP's Jamel Chabot scored,...
Twenty-five years ago on June 19, 1990, a fire gutted the old, vacant, Congregational Church on Fourth at F Street. The fire was believed to have been started by a 10-year-old boy and his friends who had been seen playing with fire in the area that day.
