Taking a look at Coast Radio Sports…
The Mapleton Sailors fell to one-and-one in the Mountain West with a four-game volleyball loss last night in Triangle Lake. The Lakers took game one, but the Sailors evened it after to before losing the next two games.
In Florence the Siuslaw Vikings fell to the Cottage Grove Lions in five, leaving them one-and-two in preseason play. The teams split the first two with identical scores of 25-23 and the Vikings captured game three for the advantage, but Cottage Grove stormed back and swept the next two games. Ashlee Cole had 11 kills in the effort; Lona Dengler nine kills and eight service aces.
XC Looks good in Far West Preview
On the cross country course yesterday… if it was the Far West Preview, then it’s shaping up to be a very fine season indeed for the Siuslaw Vikings. The boys placed five of the top six runners across the line for a near perfect 17 points to capture the team title. Matthew Campbell was first in 16:33 followed by Hayden Schaffner and Mack Marbas only 3-tenths of a second apart in 2nd and 3rd. Mitchell Butler was fifth and Seth Campbell was sixth. Also in the top-ten was sixth man Brian Schofield in eighth.
For the girls, they finished three points behind Marshfield, one behind Bandon, with 66 points in third place but Katy Potter was the individual winner in 19-minutes. Courtney King was sixth and Katy Wells was tenth.

Both Siuslaw teams will be competing at the New Balance Festival of Champions this Saturday in Oregon City.
