| March 16, 2009 11:00 PM

The eighth grade Somers girls basketball team played two tournament games on Thursday and Friday, losing to Kalispell in both games. The seventh grade girls, however, made it to the championship game in the Stillwater tournament, having won a landslide (Somers 30, West Valley 2) victory over West Valley on Thursday and narrowly defeating St. Matthews on Friday (Somers 25, St. Matts 24) by just one point. Despite shutting down the Fair-Mont-Egan's lead scorer, who scored 30 points for the team in an earlier game, the Mustangs lost to Fairmont Eagan by three points in the championship game (Somers 22, Fair-Mont-Egan 25).
