Last season, the Shorewood boys’ basketball team handed Mountlake Terrace its only regular-season loss. 

Friday night, junior center Greg Bowman made sure that didn't happen again, leading the sixth-ranked Hawks to a 48-35 Wesco 3A South win over the Thunderbirds. 

Terrace (5-1 overall, 2-0 league) bounced back after a 60-59 loss to No. 2 Lincoln of Tacoma last Saturday. 

Bowman pitched in 19 points and did a solid job containing Shorewood's Josh Hawkinson, a 6-foot-10 center who recently committed to Washington State.
