The team score for the defending state champions over the two-day, 36-hole event was 775, a whopping 106 strokes better than La Center.

All four of Ilwaco’s top golfers easily qualified for next spring’s state tournament and Bobby Byrd (12th) and Kyle Breckenridge (15th) will be alternates. It was the third straight District IV crown for the Fishermen.

“The kids really played well,” said Ilwaco coach Dan Whealdon. “It was fun to watch Ryan and Patrick compete for the championship on Friday. Ryan came in with a four-stroke lead, but they were back and forth until Ryan won by two strokes. Both guys are friends, but they were in tournament-mode and really focused. In the end they had fun competing.”

Kukula shot 70-74 (144) and Patrick Whealdon carded 74-72 (146).

Jack Whealdon, defending district champion the past two seasons, got into some trouble the first day with a rare four-putt hole and a costly out-of-bounds drive, but recovered well to fire a 33 on the back nine on Friday. His score was 78-73 (151).

Oakes finished with 81-74 (155). With all four golfers returning, the Fishermen will be big favorites to repeat as champions at the state tournament, May 27-28.

Stevenson def. IlwacoSTEVENSON, Wash. – Ilwaco had lost 3-0 to the Bulldogs two weeks ago and dropped the first two games of their Trico League volleyball match at Stevenson Thursday, but the Lady Fishermen played one of their best games of the season. Unfortunately for the girls from Stevenson came back to win 25-21 and sweep the match 3-0.

The Fishermen, after the long trip up the Columbia River Gorge played two “lackluster” games to begin the fray, losing convincingly 25-9 and 25-8 before mounting their near comeback in the final contest. Coach Marie Green said, “In the huddle before our third game, the girls said they didn’t want to be embarrassed like they had been in the first two games. We played an amazing third game defensively. Alexa Wirkkala had several key digs against their best outside hitter (left-hander Bailey Nelson).”

Charlotte Johnson dished out eight assists to lead Ilwaco in that department and Marin McDonnell added an ace, four kills and five digs. Alexa Wirkkala had eight digs, four blocks and two kills and Carley Kitzman chipped in four digs, two kills and two blocks to the Lady Fishermen cause. Brittnee Pattison added two service aces and two digs and Alexis Couch also had two digs, while Sydney Ward contributed a kill, four digs and a block.

Ilwaco is now 0-6 in the Trico and 0-11 for the season, while Stevenson improves to 4-2 in league play and 6-3 for the year. Green concluded by saying, “If we can play like we did in our third game the rest of the season, we have a good chance to knock off a couple of teams.”
