The Tigers opened the season 0-6, and 2-8, but have won eight in a row, and are 15-1 since Jan. 8. The Tigers ran thru the Greater Oregon League undefeated.

Boys Basketball - Boys Basketball Recaps Written by Andrew Millbrooke Saturday, 13 March 2010 12:33 Hits: 211 Sunset Snags 4th Place Trophy With 60-49 Win Over McKay
(Portland) – The game plan was obvious for Sunset. Get the ball inside to its big man, 6’9 sophomore Landen Lucas, as McKay’s tallest player is 6’4. McKay, intent on stopping the inside game of Sunset, did a great job of not allowing Sunset to get Lucas going early, but couldn't stop the other Apollos. Lucas was a big factor on the defensive end as Sunset jumped to an early lead and then stayed in front by controlling the rebounding and playing a great 2-3 zone defense in the second half, defeating McKay, 60-49, in the 4th place game of the morning session at the Rose Garden. Lucas finished with 17 points, 19 rebounds, and 2 blocked shots. His final tournament numbers in three games are pretty impressive; he made 16 of 22 field goal attempts, while snagging tournament-high’s of 44 rebounds and 11 blocked shots.

The Phoenix Pirates, with only one senior, Skyler Reagan, to replace, might have extended their stay in Corvallis longer than expected, but are a good bet to make another extended stay in the near future, so the contest was a great way to set the table.
Jersey change, for those visualizing the box score, Marist's Corey Owen is wearing #13, not #22 as in the porgram.
Reagan and Marist's Mitchell Wilson exchanged pleasantries, and the games' first baskets.

The La Grande Tigers and the Central Panthers both lost their last title night games at Gill Coliseum, La Grande 56-50 to Hidden Valley four years ago, and Central 52-49 to Brookings-Harbor just last year. Both are hungry to make amends.
The Marist Spartans extended their stay in 4A almost as long as possible, but fell a few hours short, and played for third in their last game before moving up to 5A.
The Newport Cubs and the Tillamook Cheesemakers brought their coastal rivalry inland for the 4A tournament Consolation trophy. They last met back on December 11th., in Tillamook, and the Cubs won a close one, 54-51.
(Portland) - #2 Westview (25-3) held off #5 South Eugene (20-8) to win 56-53 in the second semi-final of the evening session at the Rose Garden to set up an all-Metro League championship with #1 Jesuit. “We’ve been playing together since the 8th grade,” Westview senior Garrett Jackson said. “We’ve been talking about a state championship since then.” Westview will have a chance to win that title in the Championship game on Saturday night at 9:00 p.m. Westview is the only Oregon team to beat the Crusaders this season, winning 51-50 on Feb. 16th. Jesuit defeated Westview in the first two matchups this season. “It’s a whole different game now,” 6’2 senior Hayes Garrity said. “Whoever wants it more will get the win. We have a lot of guys that can step up. We have to get them to play our game.”
The Marist Spartans, champions of the SkyEm conference, met the Central Panthers, runnerup from the Valco Conference, for the second time Friday, this time with a shot at the boys' 4A championship on the line.
The 4A boys tournament took on a nicely regionalized look, pitting a team from outside the Willamette Valley against one from in the valley in both the third place and championship games. The Greater Oregon League champion La Grande Tigers faced the Skyline Conference second seed Phoenix Pirates for the berth from the southern and eastern portion of the state.
