Spring sports roundup

Golf

Our story last week on District 7 golf was incomplete. We have since learned that defending 1B girls champion Kira Powell did not compete in the district meet. After scoring 80 in the sub-district meet, she was able to take her score of 79 from the all-league meet in Colville and apply it to qualify for state competition. Golfers with a school-related conflict during either the subdistrict or district meets were allowed this option, and Powell was in Pittsburg grabbing a fourth-place win at the international science fair there. She was not allowed to be the district champion, however, as only those present for both events could claim the title.

On the boys’ team, three Titans qualified for state: Griffey Powell, Madison Charlton and Chris Hansen.

Baseball

The O-H baseball team entered the state tournament Saturday, May 19, at Central Valley High School in Spokane Valley. The Titans first played Touchet and came out on top by a close score of 10-9. That win sent them up against Colton in their second game of the day. Colton defeated O-H by a score of 5-2, sending the Titans home and setting up the championship game of Colton versus Almira-Coulee-Hartline next Saturday, May 26, in Ellensburg.

As of our press deadline, no additional information was provided on individual performances or other aspects of the two games played (no box scores either).
