Threes Key Ram Runs Regis answered Jefferson’s three point shooting with some of their own, and the seventh ranked Rams rolled to a 56-39 win over the Lions to maintain their hold on first place in the Pac West conference. Jefferson used three three point baskets to stay close to Regis, trailing 14-11 after the first quarter. Leading only 17-15 with 1:45 left before halftime, a Derek Piete three started a 7-0 Ram run. The Lions cut the lead back down to 24-18 by break time.

2A defending champs Portland Christian (7-3) built a 34-17 halftime lead and beat 3A #1 Cascade Christian (8-2), 61-46, to win the 2009 SAC tournament. 3A #5 Valley Catholic (6-2) saw its big lead disappear, but relied on a remarkable closing performance by an all-tourney player to beat host Salem Academy (3-6), 67-65, in the 3rd place game.
3A #2 Santiam Christian (8-2) rebounded from its Thursday loss to beat 3A #11 Umatilla (7-3), 69-55, in the consolation championship. In the early game, 3A Rainier (4-4) beat 3A Willamina (3-5) for 7th place.
Eight schools. Sixteen teams. Twenty-four games in three days on one court. And the 8:00 pm championship game started at 8:01 pm. Priceless ...
Once again Salem Academy rolled out the carpet and provided 3A and 2A players, coaches, fans and officials with three days of the best small classification hoops prior to the playoffs. Congratulations to SAC coach and AD Pete Potloff, and his army of SAC volunteers who made it all possible.
[NOTE: Salem Academy lost its internet server all day Saturday which unfortunately prevented any real-time reporting from the tournament. We apologize for the inconvenience, but hope you enjoy the following tournament recaps.]

Cougars Have Last Run Cascade claimed a 57-44 win over Elmira in the opener of the Cascade Holiday Tournament. The game was one with many runs back and forth, until an 11-0 Cascade run midway in the fourth broke it open. Cascade started with an 11-3 run, but Elmira responded with three straight three pointers, which started an 11-0 run. Max Beebe, Jason Shields, and Kyle Hammontree all found the range from behind the arc.

No one can accuse Salem Academy boys coach and AD Pete Potloff of padding his holiday tournament with an easy field guaranteed to place his 2A Crusaders into the championship game. Instead, coach Potloff has loaded up his tournament with six 3A teams, including four ranked in the top six spots in the latest 3A coaches poll. Despite the presence of 2A defending champs Portland Christian, the 5th annual Crusader New Years Invitational has morphed from a potential 2A Pendleton preview to a likely 3A Willamette preview. 3A #2 Santiam Christian faces 3A #5 Valley Catholic in Thursday's boys opener. That game is followed by 2A defending champs Portland Christian (2A #4) meeting 3A #6 Rainier. In Thursday's late openers, Umatilla (3A #11) pits 3A's highest scoring offense against 3A #1 Cascade Christian, owner of the state's best scoring defense. Finally, the host Crusaders (2A #6) play 3A Willamina to cap what should be a terrific New Years Day of boys (and girls) hoops. OregonPrepSports.net will provide complete coverage of the SAC Crusader New Years Invitational. But first, let's take a quick look at each of the eight boys teams meeting in what many consider to be Oregon's top holiday tournament for 3A/2A schools.

Warriors Win Wolvernies’ Tournament in Final Seconds Santiam's Adam Luckey put Santiam up 50-49 with 45 seconds left, then Amity's Bobby Hatch put the Warriors back up with a basket with 29.6 left. Stephen Wolfe, who survived two fouls in the first two minutes of the game, made the first of two free throws, but missed the second, with 13.3 seconds left. Justin Tutrane could have sealed the win with 9.2 seconds left, but missed the first free throw, and extended the lead only to 53-50 with the second shot from the stripe.

Wolverines Overcome Falcons’ Size With Speed The Oak Hill Falcons opened the game with the first score, but the Wolverines ran off 11 straght before Oak Hill called time out. Santiam got another bucket plus a free throw for a 14-2 lead before Jarvis Zoesell slowed the run with a basket for Oak Hill. Despite being outsized, especially in the post by the towering Zoesell, Santiam controlled the game, mostly with a controlled, half court game on offense and defense, which kept the ball out of Zoesell's hands a lot. But the Wolverines kept the Falcons off balance by running when the opportunity presented itself.

‘Mooks Make Most of Freethrows With fourth ranked Cascade holding a one point lead, Zach Holloway missed the front end of a one and one with 52.8 seconds left. It was only the second free throw of the game for the Cougars. After a Tillamook timeout, Jason Wetzel missed, but Luke Oldenkamp grabbed the rebound above Cascade's Justin Lowder. Oldenkamp dropped in both free throws with 15.6 seconds left, raising the 'Mooks game totals at the line to 12 of 17, and giving the third ranked Cheesemakers a 50-49 lead. Cascade never got a last shot up, as Mark Hibdon turned the ball over with 5.1 seconds left. The Cougars had been so frugal with fouls that they still had three fouls to use to get into the bonus, and Tillamook worked the rest of the clock off drawing non-shooting fouls.

25-4 Cougar Run trumps 10-0 Cub Comeback Justin Lowder had 10 of his game high 26 points in the first quarter to get Cascade off to a fast start. Cascade built a 10 point lead with the first bucket after halftime, but went stone cold for 5 1/2 minutes. Newport ran off 10 straight, but then went cold themselves for over two minutes. A 6-0 Cub run at the end of the third quarter put Newport up 45-42 heading to the final period. But Cascade shut out Newport for four minutes, and their man to man defense against the Cubs wore down Newport, who went only six players deep until the last two minutes of the game. By that time, Cascade was well on their way to a 69-51 win.
