After competing in their first tournament of the 2014 summer softball season, the girls of the West Plains Bandits 14U club know they have work to do to become a championship-caliber team. They also know they are really close to that goal, coming one win shy of playing for the Gold Division title in last weekend's Spokane Girls Fastpitch Softball Association's Summer Classic. The Bandits won their first four tournament games Saturday and Sunday at Spokane's Dwight Merkel Sport...
The Fairways Golf Course takes a lot of grief for the wind that is as constant as are the divots its golfers carve. But the wind and the West Plains are pretty synonymous in these parts. However, one thing that the golf course on Melville Road can take pride over this year are greens that appear to be head and shoulders above those at many other courses in the region. Both Spokane city and county courses, plus a number of private ones all suffered significant damage from a cra...
The Cheney A American Legion baseball team cut short their season after folding earlier this month. According to Cheney American Legion Baseball general manager Mike Cagle, one factor that led to the Cheney A team shutting down their season was the lack of players. “If you don’t have 12-13 guys on a roster, it’s hard to compete,” Cagle said. “The dynamics of summer has changed in the last decade.” Cagle added that many players had other commitments outside of baseball. Cheney A coach Kent Weatherbee said he postponed a...
Medical Lake's AA American Legion baseball team kept on the heels of Federal League-leading Freeman this past Monday with their doubleheader sweep of East Valley. With their 4-3 nail-biter win in nine innings in the opener and an 11-1 five-inning breeze in game two, Medical Lake improved to 5-1 and trails Freeman (5-0) by a half game. Last Friday night Medical Lake battled both the elements and the bouncing ball, suffering a 7-6 loss at Colville (4-1). Cory Wagner started the...
The Cheney AA American Legion Baseball team continued to roll through the season this past week winning both games in their Federal League doubleheader against Colville, 7-6 and 16-0, then snagged a victory on the road, June 16, against Whitman County, 13-2. Logan Pratt and Cameron Marchand each had RBI singles while Connor Pratt hit an RBI double in game one against Colville. The SummerHawks battled back to clinch the win in the seventh inning after Kyle Jones, who had only...
I would like to comment on Rep. Eric Cantor’s defeat in Virginia last week. Finally the American people are waking up and realizing that their do-nothing elected official’s time has come to go! Here is a no-name candidate who only spent $100,000 vs. Cantor’s $5 million. That shows me that “We The People” do have a chance and can beat the big spenders and lobbyist. Our very own Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers should take close notice that her time in Congress is also coming to an end. She has lost all touch with the 5th District...
A great big “Viking whoosh” needs to go out to our local fire station! Our little Vikings cannot thank them enough for the time and energy that they gave during our Betz Field Day on June 6. Ken Johnson gave up his time and volunteered to put together a first aid station for our kiddos and Tim Steiner brought a ladder truck as well as his crew! Amazing! Not only did they come out to run a first aid station for the day, they also brought several of their fire trucks. They gave tours of their trucks, mini first aid les...
