MOSES LAKE — Competition is getting fierce in the month of October as local athletes get through the final weeks of the regular season. Check out where each team will be heading this week.
Mavs fall in competitive matchup to Eastmont
MOSES LAKE — The Moses Lake High School Mavericks (4-6) hosted the Eastmont Wildcats (3-6) Thursday evening for a matchup, but Eastmont gained the upper hand to win 3-1 over the Mavericks. Mavs Head Coach Krystal Trammell-Walt said this game, along with their past few matches, has been a great learning experience for the team. “We’re getting there,” said Trammell-Walt. “A lot of our varsity did not have a lot of playing time at this level. They’re doing really well because we’re seeing movement along the net with our middles, good choices, our setting, our defense, we’re running the two liberos, everyone’s contributing.” The first set was competitive between the two teams from the very start. Eastmont took a slight lead over MLHS early, but the Mavs quickly closed the gap and took the lead by two.

Head Coach Wiley Allred spoke to the type of athlete it takes to achieve such a feat. “They've got to be dedicated, especially in the offseason and throughout the year, and play together and be unselfish,” Allred said. “These kids have been really unselfish, and they celebrate everybody's success. It goes a long way; it's been very rewarding to coach.”

That’s our state pool,” said Preston. “This is a big test for us, a big experience for the girls, especially if they haven’t been in that facility before.” The Mukilteo meet saw teams from all across the state in attendance for what serves as a midseason prep meet for the incoming state tournament. Out of the 34 teams in attendance, Moses Lake placed 26th overall.
