Mountlake Terrace earns district berth

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE — For three Mountlake Terrace seniors Monday night’s game against Mariner was the last time they would put on a Hawks jersey and play in front of their home crowd. They made the most of it in a 55-34 Wesco South victory.

The win also secured a Class 4A District 1 playoff berth for the Hawks, since Shorewood lost to Jackson.

“It was Senior Night so we just went all out,” Mountlake Terrace coach Deidra Ducheane said.

The Hawks outscored the Marauders 21-8 in the first quarter. With the home-court crowd cheering them on, Mountlake Terrace was able to make stops on the defensive end.

“Everything was sinking for us,” Ducheane said about the team’s first-quarter effort. “We got a lot of fast-breaks.”

The Hawks kept the pressure on thoughout the rest of the game, outscoring the Marauders in all but the fourth quarter, but by then the game was already out of reach.

Corinne Pingul led all scorers with 19 points for the Hawks in what was the last game for Emma Fritz, Christina Ramirez and Katy Hinson.
