Eric Plummer, above right, and Declan Plummer, below left, each won titles last weekend at the Idaho State Handball Championships in Boise. Eric beat Carson Taysom, a former College of Idaho pitcher and up and coming handball player from Pocatello, in two straight games to win the Open Division singles. Declan won the C singles, but more importantly, got seven matches of singles and doubles in during a busy weekend. Sandpoint’s Ryan Luttmann also competed, losing in the semis of the Open Doubles after a controversial call at 20-20 went against him and his partner from Boise. Luttman was serving at 20-20 after dropping the first game, and when a return that had no chance of making the front wall hit Luttmann, referee Eddie Garcia inexplicably called for a replay. The front of the state T-Shirt, pictured below, honors Boise’s Thad Lewis and Sandpoint’s Jim Lovell, each of whom was a well-liked part of the Idaho handball community who passed away recently.
