The Monarchs were the only Blast Zone area team to secure a win in Washington on Thursday, and they did it in runaway fashion. The Mark Morris girls basketball team saw four players reach double figures in the scoring column in a 72-39 win at Hockinson in 2A Greater St. Helens League play at Bakamus Gymnasium.

“We did an excellent job getting to the rim and finishing around the basket,” Mark Morris coach Sean Atkins said. “It was good to get a team win.”
