ACH secures state berth Wednesday

COULEE CITY — The Almira/Coulee-Hartline Warriors had a successful Wednesday afternoon as they earned a 3-0 victory over Walla Walla Valley Academy and a 3-1 victory over Garfield-Palouse. With these victories, the Warriors not only took fifth in District 6 but secured a spot in the state tournament. "There's just lots of excitement," said Warriors Head Coach Katie Walsh. "I've told them all season long that if we just keep working hard that the W's will come. We are peaking at the right time and I still think that there's more to come." Walsh said the journey to this point started last Thursday at the Northeast 1B league tournament. ACH entered as the fourth seed in the south which placed them against the number one seeded Northport from the north where they fell 3-2 in a competitive game.
