MILL CREEK — The importance of shooting all those free throws at the end of basketball practices certainly showed up for the Mountlake Terrace boys basketball team Saturday.
Terrace, the No. 2 seed from the Wesco South, defeated the Wesco North No. 5 seed Arlington 68-62 in a loser-out District 1 playoff game at Jackson High School.
Arlington committed 17 fouls in the second half, with the bulk of those coming in the fourth quarter, and Terrace knocked down 18 of 22 free-throw attempts to outscore the Eagles 25-13 in the final quarter.
Arlington jumped out to a 21-12 lead after the first quarter and led 30-23 at half.
The Hawks’ Jacob Champoux had a game-high 30 points, connecting on four 3-pointers. Eric Carlson had four 3s and 21 points to lead Arlington.
