Timberlake 6, Priest River 0

PRIEST RIVER — The Spartans were defeated 6-0 by Timberlake on senior night. Although the night didn’t go as planned, Priest River players still had some solid performances.

“We played better than last night for sure, but we have some things to work on before districts on Monday,” assistant coach Nick Tucker said. “Haley (Braae) was strong as always and Clara Kennedy had her best game of the year, in my opinion. It was definitely an emotionally charged first half due to senior night.”

Timberlake had only one goal until around the 30 minute mark, where they scored three more before halftime to extend their lead to four goals. Ultimately, the Tigers tacked on two more goals in the second half to secure the 6-0 victory.

Priest River finished the regular season 6-8 with two wins over St. Maries, Newport and Grangeville.
