LC got destroyed! What happened!? Looks like last year when Papenfuss was the leading scorer through non-conference play then the Pios fell back into shooting threes...and missing.

Yea they did! As did G Fox by my Pirates 94-60. Calvin Jurich gets the first triple double I can remember from a WW player and does it in conference opener. WW rests top 8 players last 10 minutes.

Who won in Walla Walla?

decisive wins by both WW and UPS tonight. Interesting to see how things play out over the next couple of weeks. Might set up quite a showdown in a couple weeks. But lets not think too far ahead. gotta take em one at a time. good win tonight loggers

Whitman won easily. I watched the second half on streaming video, pretty cool. Neither team impressed, but Whitman is improved over the game I saw last year. I still wish I could see the UPS-WW games when they get played.

Have a Happy New year and fun NWC Season.

I agree, I watched it too, the first half was a good one, but the second half was lackluster, especially as a Pacific fan, cool stream they had.

What in the world happenned to Bartlett?!?! Not the first one who went down, know about his ACL, but the second one - Ross Bartlett. Pacific's website says he is injured but didn't have the extent or discription. That's horrible, and bad luck for those brothers, they were playing so well to start the season.

No close games at all last night, interesting.

congrats to the loggers on a big win against LC. I thought the game was going to be much closer...

Me too!! Of course it is only one game, but maybe UPS, WIL, and WW showed the conference what its going to take to compete. Whitman...can't go there yet but congrats to them on winning their home conference opener.

I am not too surprised that Whitman won its first home game. I can see Whitman winning all of their home games, but really struggling on the road.

What I am surprised about is that they forced Pacific into 27 TOs. Lowery and Pac have always done a good job of really slowing down the pace against UPS, and usually plays them pretty tough. I would have thought they would have done the same thing against Whitman.

Forgot to mention that UPS sank 7 3's in the first half...way to shoot it!

LogShow · January 04, 2009, 12:08:19 AM

Logs are rolling, 59-37 about mid-way through the second half.

Pio20 · January 04, 2009, 12:33:00 AM

LC up 10 over PLU with 5 minutes left in the second half

Pio20 · January 04, 2009, 12:45:04 AM

Sounds like the Pios will cement this one with free throw shooting. Kollasch hits some big free throws down the stretch to hold off the Lutes.

Looks like a comeback is brewing in Walla Walla, last year in the same gym GFU came back and sent it into double overtime
