Taking a look at Coast Radio Sports…

Vikings Swept by Pirates

Marshfield defeated Siuslaw 55-41 last night for a girls Far West Basketball victory in Florence.  The Lady Vikings fell behind early, but had cut the lead to only two with 4 ½ minutes remaining in the game before the Pirates put a push on to spread the lead and win by 14.

For the boys, the Vikings trailed 11-nothing with less than a minute left in the first quarter and the Pirates cruised to a 56-44 win.

The Vikings will be on the road tomorrow to Winston where they’ll take on the Douglas Trojans.

Athlete of the Week

Mapleton Basketball Standout Chris Free is Coast Radio Sports’ Athlete of the week.  The junior forward had 22 points, 19 rebounds and five steals in last week’s Sailor victory over Eddyville.  Honorable Mention goes to Siuslaw reserve Meghan Pickell who came off the bench and averages seven points each night in two Viking games last week.
