Shorecrest girls eliminated from district basketball tournament
Sunday, February 16, 2014
The Shorecrest girls’ basketball season ended with a 51-49 home loss to Marysville-Pilchuck in the second round of the Northwest District 3A tournament.
The Scots trailed 13-11 after the first quarter, but led 27-26 at halftime and 39-38 at the third quarter before falling behind in the final period.
Free throw shooting spelled the difference, as the Scots were 2-for-12 from the line in the fourth quarter.
After Senior Samantha Tidwell banked in her third 3-pointer of the night to cut the Tomahawks' lead to 1 with 4.8 seconds to play, the Tommies' were fouled immediately. Leading scorer Jenika Anglim made the second of the two shots to extend the lead to two. A last ditch shot by the Scots from close in wouldn't fall at the buzzer.
M-P 13 13 12 13 51
SC 11 16 12 10 49
The young Scots team, with only two seniors, finished the season with a 15-7 record after losing both of its tournament games, while M-P improved to 9-13 going into another elimination game Wednesday against the loser of a Saturday semifinal game between Mountlake Terrace (17-4) and Meadowdale (8-13). The winner of the Wednesday game will play for the District's No. 3 State berth in a game at Lynnwood High School Saturday, Feb. 22, against the winner of another Wednesday elimination game.
