Last Wednesday, the Lady Mules traveled to Mossyrock and won 69-20. "Overall, it was a great game," Coach Rob Garrett said. "Charlie (Ashe) got us going early with eight of our first 10 points.

Things are looking up for the Wahkiakum Mules boys basketball team, who followed a tough loss with two wins this week. Last Thursday at home, the Mules played catch up with Morton/White Pass and watched it all fall apart when the Timberwolves Kaleb Rashoff hit a last second shot from three point range to win the game. "That was a tough loss," Coach Todd Souvenir said. "We really struggled to score in the first half and dug a hole that we just couldn't quite climb out of. I was really proud of...

The Wahkiakum Mules boys basketball team started their season with a loss on the road to Winlock, 47-41. “They played really well but came up a little short,” Coach Todd Souvenir said. “We cut the score to two with under a minute when Jake (Leitz) hit a big three.
