“Dog mentality”

Strong character leads Mavs to 21-19 win over Sunnyside

MOSES LAKE – The Mavericks’ three defensive stands on a fourth down played a significant role in their 21-19 win over Sunnyside on Friday, with head coach Brett Jay calling the performance character-revealing. “The fourth quarter’s not a time where you build character I believe, I think that’s built throughout the week, throughout the process.

Finishing down the stretch

MOSES LAKE – The Mavericks were a hail mary away from winning their second-straight Columbia Basin Big-Nine title last season, and now enter the 2023 campaign with a goal of returning to the 4A State Football Tournament.
