Sidni Whitcomb of Colton and Madi Cloninger of Garfield/Palouse take a rebound battle to the floor. Taylor Thomas of the Wildcats is at right.

The Oakesdale and Garfield/Palouse boys won more games last weekend to keep their claim as the top two teams in the Southeast 1B league. For the girls, Pomeroy kept that claim with a narrow win at Oakesdale. The Colton girls are also unbeaten in early league play.

With the season now on a break for Christmas, play will resume Dec. 27-28 as the Oakesdale and St. John/Endicott/LaCrosse boys and girls teams go to the Reardan tournament. Also, Colton will again host a Christmas tournament Dec. 26-28, with boys and girls teams including Garfield/Palouse, Waterville, Wahkiakum and Curlew.
