District 3 Championship Game – Hillsboro/Central Valley vs. Thompson
Thompson DEFEATS Hillsboro/Central Valley 66-62
In the game we all wanted to see, it did anything but let the fans down. Thompson came out firing in the first half and took an 11 point lead into halftime. Karliegh Weber led the charge with 15 of her 22 points coming in the first 16 minutes. H-CV outscored the Tommies 25-15 in the third quarter to get back into the game for the fourth quarter. H-CV took a lead on an “and 1” play that also fouled out Shannon Galegher with just under 3 minutes left in the game. The Tommies stayed composed and got two baskets from Averi Olson and Bethany Ivesdal to tie the game at 61 all. McKenna Demoe came up with a basket next for Thompson to retake the lead 63-61. Kadie Doeden split a pair of free throws on the next possession to bring the Burros within one point. Averi Olson got herself open underneath the basket on the next possession and Shaice Marx found her for a lay-up to give the Tommies a three point lead. Taylor Henningsards ensuing three point shot was blocked and she was forced to foul to put Thompson at the free throw line again. Averi Olson split the following free throws and gave the Tommies a 66-62 advantage. H/CV’s final attempt was no good and the Tommies won the district 3 championship.
