On Friday, the Mules softball team met Mossyrock at home for a double header. Mossyrock won the first game 16-6, but the second game was called in the fourth inning due to darkness. Starting Mule pitcher Tori Wegdahl struggled to find her rhythm. After two innings, Dallas Gott came in to relieve her, and Wegdahl moved to shortstop. “Dallas is a tremendously hard worker and really gives you her best efforts but even our best efforts couldn’t overcome Mossy’s strong bats,” said Coach Cindy F...
Coach Nick Vavoudis from the Mule golf team sent us this report about last week’s home golf match at Skyline Golf Course, but it was inadvertently left out of yesterday's paper.

Three Rivers Christian (TRC) finished second, totaling 199. TRC’s Logan Woods, who finished 10th place in the 2012 state championships, lead his team with a 42. Adna was incomplete because they only had three players. Senio...

Pitcher Tori Wegdahl threw a complete game, striking out 12 batters and allowing only two hits. On offense, she hit a triple. Catcher Sam Boyce “did a great job defensively as well as offensively.

The Wahkiakum Mule boys basketball team capped off their rollercoaster season with a third place finish at last week’s state tournament in Spokane, ending the year on a high note. The Mules reached the semifinals after a gritty 62-49 win over Winlock in the fifth meeting between the teams this season. Eager to put their struggles against Winlock behind them, the Mules hoped to jump on the Cardinals early and finish them off with ease. That proved to be too much to ask for though, as it was Winlock that got off to a hot start, putting the M...
For those fans that made the nine hour roundtrip journey to Sunnyside this past Saturday to watch the Wahkiakum Mules take on the Liberty Bell Mountain Lions in a loser-out, winner-to-state regional game, they were rewarded with a 63-36 Mule thrashing of the Mountain Lions in a relatively short-lived game. In a game that lasted less than an hour’s time, the Mules exerted their dominance over their North Central Washington adversaries, jumping out to a 19-8 first quarter lead en route to the 63-36 victory. Comparable to how the Mules finished ou...
The Mules will be heading to central Washington this weekend as they clinched a berth to regionals with four wins this past week. Facing elimination following their second loss of the season to seventh-seeded Winlock, the third-seeded Mules found themselves in a loser-out matchup against the top-seeded Pacific League champions, the Raymond Seagulls. The Mules, however, quickly silenced any fears of a two-and-out appearance as they jumped on the Gulls early, racing to a 20-8 first quarter lead, and never looking back for a 69-33 win. Senior...
Submitted by Coach Matt Stacey Wahkiakum wrestling has a tradition; all state placers get a banner on the wrestling room wall. There are banners from earlier wrestlers such as Nabor Mendez, and a banner for our 2012 champion, Blayne Edwards. The time has come to order a pair of new banners to add to the wall. For the Mat Classic XXV state tournament last Friday and Saturday in Tacoma, the Mules were able to bring five boys guaranteed competition and two more hoping for an opportunity through the alternate system. Unfortunately doors did not...

Submitted by Mule Coach Matt Stacey In 2012 the Mule wrestling team took second at the regional tournament, edged out in the last matches by LaConner. In 2013 the Mule wrestling team again took second, this time to Raymond. Each time the Mules had their opportunities. It could come across as a cop-out from the second place coach, or even as sour grapes. But the day a coach can not learn from an older and wiser coach is the day he should hang up his shoes. Legendary Coach John Wooden has an interesting clip on you-tube concerning winning and...
The Wahkiakum Lady Mules have posted a 2-1 record in the district tournament and play the Raymond Gulls tonight (Thursday) in a loser out game, 8 p.m., in Rochester.

Seniors Peter Weiler and Lars Blix combined for 39 of the Mules’ 52 points last Thursday night, but it wasn’t enough to overcome the upset minded Winlock Cardinals in the opening round of district play, with the Mules falling 57-52. The third-seeded Mules and seventh-seeded Cardinals were neck and neck throughout much of the game, with neither team able to break open a commanding lead. In the decisive fourth quarter, the Mules were clinging to a narrow four point lead when an unfortunate call turned the tide of the game. After a Winlock fou...

Last Saturday morning, the Wahkiakum Mules men’s wrestling team returned the District tournament Traveling Trophy to the announcer's stand. The team had been its steward since last February and was seeking to extend that period of possession. The Mules brought 12 men, ready for war, at 10 of the 14 weight classes. Post season wrestling allows teams to enter two scoring wrestlers at each weight class. Wrestlers are seeded according to regular season head to head competition. This creates opportunities and challenges. Mule wrestlers ended up o...
The Wahkiakum Mule boys basketball team finished the regular season on a strong note this past week, posting wins against Mossyrock, Toutle, and Adna to secure their position in districts as the third seed from the Central League. The Mules began the week last Wednesday against a resilient Mossyrock team that matched the Mules bucket-for-bucket for most of the game. Despite being in the midst of their best shooting performance of the entire season, the Vikings hung around to keep things interesting before succumbing to a 74-65 defeat. While...

Quarters two and three w...

The Wahkiakum Mule boys basketball team took a small step in the right direction this past week following back-to-back home upsets the week prior as the team buckled down to pick up a pair of league victories on the road. Last Wednesday, the Mules travelled to Napavine to face a struggling Tigers team, but it was the Mules who did a lot of the struggling early. After one quarter of play, the Mules were still stuck with a goose egg on the scoreboard, trailing 13-0 to the Tigers. Over the next three quarters, though, the Mules finally got into a...
