The North Beach High boys basketball team went up against South Bend last night, a team they crushed by 30 points in a home win last month . . . but lost to by a dozen points in a road loss just a few weeks ago.

Last night’s pressure-packed playoff game turned out to be a thriller, with the Hyaks escaping with a 54-53 win. A loss would have ended the season. With the win, the boys play Napavine or Toutle Lake on Thursday night (6:30) at Chehalis. A win means a spot in the State tournament for the 17-6 Hyaks.

The North Beach girls team, 13-9 after two big playoff wins, play against Toutle Lake tonight (6:30) at Chehalis. A win means a spot in the State tournament, and a district championship game on Saturday night. If they lose, they have to earn the State spot with a win on Thursday night (6:30) at Centralia.
