After finishing fourth in the Great Northern League, the Cheney High School boys tennis team headed to Washington State University for districts May 10-11, winning some and losing some against West Valley and Pullman. “The team gave great efforts at districts,” head coach Jesse Erickson said in an email. “I thought everyone played really well and showed just how much they improved over the course of the season.” In singles play, Jared Adams played what Erickson called “some of his best tennis of the season” in a marathon 1-...

After Friday's elimination matches only one Card girl advanced to play on Saturday.

For Cheney High School softball head coach Gary Blake — and many of his spring sports counterparts — “prom” is a four-letter word. The annual spring social function creates a myriad of distractions in most teenagers minds, and in Blake’s experience, his Lady Blackhawks have never played very well the night before the big dance. The latter gave Cheney’s veteran softball coach some added trepidation in that this year’s high school event was moved from late April to early May, coinciding with the start of the Great Norther...

The Cheney High School boys soccer season came to an end on May 11 when the Grandview Greyhounds eliminated the Blackhawks 4-1 in a district crossover match. An easy win in the Great Northern League championship match against Clarkston at Eastern Washington University’s Roos Field on May 7 sent the Blackhawks to a home playoff game, where they stumbled against an aggressive Greyhound offense. Cheney (14-3, 11-0) couldn’t seem to find the back of the net in the first half, with Grandview (1-0, 0-0) scoring in the 14th and 35t...
Its over for the Medical Lake softball team after losing back-to-back games against Freeman last week. The Scotties (7-5, 14-7) traveled to Medical Lake on Tuesday, May 7, for the final game of the regular season, downing the Card girls 13-6. Both teams came out hitting in the first inning with the Cards taking a 2-1 lead going into a scoreless second, and by the top of the fifth the Cards had a three-run lead. But by then the Scotties bats had warmed up, knocking in five...
This summer marks the 50th anniversary of humankinds first walk on the Moon, which you must admit is an interesting way to start out a sports column. I say that because it’s an event I have memories of when it happened — how old I was (9) and what I was doing (sleeping — my dad woke me up to watch). Like many seminal events in history that we bear witness to, it sticks in your mind forever and you can say “I remember when...” in future years. I can’t say the same thing about the incorporation of graphics and special effects i...
