One does not see today's skiers dusting off the old wooden slats. The ones that were physically attached to the feet with tough leather straps on boots tightly laced to the feet. They were a broken ankle or leg waiting to happen on ungroomed ski slopes, let alone serious head injury from flailing helicopter blades after a fall. But some golfers are hearkening back to the good old days when hickory shafted clubs with funny names - not numbers - filled a bag that was slung over... Full story

Medical Lake head football coach Jeremy Bahr sensed going in that last Friday’s Northeast A League football game with Colville had some sort of ominous cloud hanging over it. “It was one of those things where the kids were ultra-intimidated by the history of playing these guys,” Bahr said after his team took a 58-7 pounding from the Indians. “Colville’s the real deal, there’s a reason why they’re ranked No. 2 in state.” Scoring in quick bunches, first four minutes into th...
Medical Lake’s girls soccer season came to an end last week when the Cardinals suffered a pair of losses, 2-0 to Colville on Oct. 16 and 6-1 at home to Deer Park, Oct. 18.

Medical Lake finished the season 1-11 in Northeast A League play and 1-13 overall, losing their last 10 league c...

The Lady Blackhawks varsity volleyball team bye week couldn't have fallen at a better time as they wait to see what their future in the postseason will hold. The team is ranked solidly in fourth in the Great Northern League with a 4-8 win-loss record, and as of press time who they'll take on in their Oct. 25 match was still up in the air, dependent on the Oct. 23 matches between West Valley and East Valley and between Clarkston and Pullman. "We'll stay in fourth; there's no...
Putting together our annual Eastern Washington University Homecoming special section is always a bit of a challenge. It's a challenge because story ideas don't always come easily, as they do with other special sections. Outdoors is pretty easy, it's just a matter sometimes of making sure we don't repeat ourselves. Medical Lake Founder's Day and Cheney Rodeo usually provide good material, as do the two Back to School sections, and the fall and winter sports previews are...
By JOHN McCALLUM Managing Editor Cheney High cross country coach Derek Slaughter predicted that the 2018 Great Northern League competition for two team slots to regionals would be a three-team race — he just didn’t think West Valley would be one of those teams. The Eagles used the advantages of a small field of runners and a short course to edge Cheney for second-place — and the district’s No. 2 seed to the regional glue-in meet next Saturday — at District 7 boys competition last Saturday at Clarkston’s Beachview Park. Pullm...
Among the many roads and pathways Medical Lake has taken on the way to winning multiple 1A boys state cross country championships, perhaps last week's was one of the more unique. "The course, first of all, runs through a cemetery," head coach Gene Blankenship said. "It does a two-loop thing. And signage along the way warns of both flower removal and closing times at dusk, which all the teams managed to beat." That's where the Cardinals wrapped up Northeast A League dual-meet...
Cheney High School football head coach Bobby Byrd knew his Blackhawks' showdown last Friday night with visiting sixth-ranked West Valley would be a battle. And an epic battle it was. With the time ticking rapidly away and no timeouts, the Blackhawks tried four times inside West Valley's 10 to punch in the winning touchdown - the last coming on fourth and goal at the four that was stopped two yards short as the Eagles preserved a hard-fought 17-14 win at Tom Oswald Field. The...

Martha (Kingma) Loomer, 95, passed away Oct. 12, 2018, at the home of her daughter in Issaquah, Wash.
