Thursday roundup: Sullivan’s sharp shooting scores Wa-Hi boys win over Lewiston
WALLA WALLA 58, LEWISTON 37: Dylan Sullivan accounted for all 15 of his points by going 5 of 8 from 3-point range and Taylor Hamada had 10 points and nine boards to lift the visiting Blue Devils (7-2, 3-1 MCC) over the Bengals on Thursday in nonconference play.
Walla Walla’s defense was suffocating as Lewiston was unable to score double-digit points in a quarter until it dropped 13 in the final period. Wilson Braden and Santana Donaven led the Bengals with 10 points each.

Kamiakin (7-2, 4-0 MCC) led by as many as 24 points after holding Bellingham (5-3) to just two points in the second quarter, but had to hold on as its once cushy lead slipped away a bit after halftime. Spencer Lee had 13 points for the Red Raiders and Caden Mee 12.
HUDSON’S BAY 53, SOUTHRIDGE 39: Anthony Jackson tied the game-high with 19 points but the Suns (3-5, 1-3) fell at the Yakima SunDome Shootout.
