SPORTS: Sequim remains tied for first in boys basketball; other prep reports

SILVERDALE — Jayson Brocklesby lit up the scoreboard again with 32 points to spark the Sequim boys basketball team past Klahowya in Olympic League action.

The Wolves blasted the Eagles 70-36 Friday night to remain tied for first with Olympic, which beat North Mason 76-33 Friday.

Both teams have identical 11-1 league and 13-3 overall records.

The Wolves surged in the second quarter against the Eagles, outscoring them 26-9 and taking control of the game with a 43-18 lead at halftime.

“We really came out in the second quarter playing better offense, and we really knocked them down on defense, too,” Sequim coach Greg Glasser said.

The Wolves dished out 20 assists and played well as a team, Glasser added.

“We played textbook basketball. It’s good to see that as we head into the postseason.”

The Wolves next play their final home game of the season Tuesday night against North Kitsap (7-4, 8-7) and then concludes the season with three road games.

The first of those is at archrival Port Angeles (2-11, 3-14) on Thursday night.

Against Klahowya, Brocklesby earned his fourth 30-plus points game this year on 14 of 16 shooting from the field, 1 of 2 from 3-point range.

He also had seven rebounds and four steals while Rory Kallappa added 10 points and six boards and Gabe Carter earned nine points, nine rebounds, five assists and two blocked shots.

Erik Christensen, meanwhile, netted nine points, grabbed eight rebounds and had two blocks.

MONTESANO — The Spartans erupted in the second half behind the 28 combined points from Braden Decker and Leo Gonzales in the SWL-Evergreen Division game Friday night.

The two teams were tied at 18 points apiece at intermission but the Spartans outscored the Bulldogs 31-10 in the second half to waltz away for the blowout win.

Decker led with 16 points while Gonzales had 12 and Nick Gilmore added 10.

Forks was short-handed as starting guard Colton Raben missed the game because of the flu but the Spartans came out strong in the second half and never looked back.

“Everyone stepped up and did an excellent job,” Forks coach Rick Gooding said.

“Nick Gilmore stepped up for us and scored 10 big points while Leo Gonzales also did a great job of scoring and rebounding.

“And Mark Jacobson did a great job rebounding for us.”

The Spartans did an outstanding job in the second half on defense, holding the Bulldogs to three field goals and four free throws the entire half, five points in each quarter, Gooding said.

“Every single player that came in contributed in one way or another. It was just a great team effort.”

Forks next plays at Tenino on Tuesday night.
