Crescent boys fall on the road
MULKITEO — The Crescent boys lost to a strong 7-2 Sulamita Christian team on the road 77-35.
KC Spencer and Eric Emery led the Loggers on Monday with seven points apiece. Noah Leonard scored six and Robert Cox and Kylan Sheid each scored five.
“We worked hard, probably the hardest working game since I’ve been here. Can’t fault the guys effort at all,” said coach Chris Ferrier.
“[Sulamita Christian] has some length that really caused problems for our shooting and then they really shoot the ball quite well on their end,” Ferrier said.
The game completes Crescent’s (0-1, 5-6) preseason schedule. From now on, the Loggers play strictly North Olympic B games, beginning at 5 p.m. today with a road game at Chief Kitsap.

Monday’s game was tied 17-17 at the half, but the Forks JV outscored Crescent 8-0 in the third.

Serrianne said she moved the Loggers’ tall guard Chloe Conat down low and she responded with 16 rebounds to go with two points.
