Newport punches state ticket

The Knights used a team-high 22 assists from Emmy Freed and 19 digs from Morgan Kraus to top Bothell 3-0 (26-24, 25-16, 25-20) in a winner-to-state match last night at Newport High School.

Anna Crabtree and Casey Schoenlein both finished with nine kills in the win.

Newport will face Garfield, which swept Eastlake in the other semi-final, at 7 pm at Bothell High School on Thursday, Nov. 3.

The Knights defeated the Bulldogs 3-1 in their only meeting of the regular season back in late September.

Bellevue Christian headed to Tri-Districts

Annie Wright dropped Bellevue Christian 3-1 (18-25, 25-22, 25-17, 25-11) in the Emerald City League volleyball tournament on Tuesday night despite 13 kills from Meredith Lampe and 23 assists from Katie Hoffman.

The Vikings will be the fourth seed into the tri-district tournament, which begins on Thursday, Nov. 3 at 5 pm against Cascade Christian. A win can move BCS into a second round game against Cedar Park Christian while a loss would end the season.

Six of the 12 teams in the tournament will earn a 1A state tournament berth.
