State basketball: Area teams find out quarterfinal foes

Tickets to the Hardwood Classic were punched Saturday. Now, the area basketball teams traveling on to the state quarterfinals know their itineraries.

The Kamiakin girls will play Edmonds-Woodway at 7:15 p.m. Thursday in the Tacoma Dome.

Braves coach Lane Schumacher was still gathering information on the opponent Sunday evening but said one thing he isn’t looking too hard at is E-W’s record: 16-10.

“I was looking at their boxscores, and they’ve played some teams that were highly ranked: Lynnwood, Glacier Peak, Arlington,” Schumacher said. “Their record isn’t indicative of how good they are, and that goes for us too playing in a 4A-3A league in the Mid-Columbia Conference.

“You can throw those records out the window.”

Add this to the tally: The E-W Warriors beat Auburn Riverside 58-48 in the round of 16, handing the Ravens just their second loss of the season.

For the record, the Braves are 14-10. The teams’ combined 20 losses is six more than the entire rest of the field (128-16). And that includes Mt. Spokane at 14-10.

Win or lose, Kamiakin will face either Arlington or Lincoln on Friday, with both teams coming in 23-1. Unbeatens Bellevue (23-0) and Lynnwood (24-0) are in the other semifinal bracket.

This is Kamiakin’s first trip to Tacoma since Schumacher’s first season with the Braves in 2013, when they placed fourth. The past two seasons, they lost in the round of 16.

Though the Kamiakin coaches are not newbies in regard to taking care of the little details that come with a lengthy road trip, there is one thing the Braves will have to adjust to: their first long bus trip of the season.

“The longest road trip in league,” Schumacher said, “is Walla Walla.”

Class 1A girls

Columbia-Burbank (20-5) takes on King’s (19-5) at 3:45 p.m. Thursday at the Yakima County SunDome.

Burbank is coming off an impressive 52-45 win over traditional powerhouse Lakeside of 9 Mile Falls, while King’s edged Bellevue Christian 34-30 in a defensive struggle.

The Coyotes will face either Zillah (20-5) or Nooksack Valley (19-9) on Friday. Top teams Granger (21-3) and Lynden Christian (22-2) are in the other semifinal bracket.

Class 1B/2B

The small school take over Spokane Arena, with the Mabton girls (21-3) playing Toutle Lake (22-2) at 12:15 p.m. Thursday in the 2B tourney.

In the 1B ranks, Sunnyside Christian fans have plenty to cheer about. Their unbeaten girls (24-0) play Tulalip Heritage (23-1) at 3:45 p.m. The winner likely will face seven-time defending state champion Colton.

The SSC boys (21-5) play Garfield-Palouse (20-2) at 9 a.m. in the quarterfinals.
