Summary

For the first time all tournament, the Mules looked comfortable on offense. They shot over 40 percent from the floor and moved the ball around well. Macie Elliott and Paige Mace led the Mules with 10 points apiece.

Top-seeded Ilwaco ended its tournament run after earning the highest seed in school history. The Fishermen were led by Eliza Bannister and Madeline Jacobson with 13 points apiece.

Both teams were evenly matched overall with each team bettering the other in a couple categories. Ilwaco made up for its less than stellar shooting from the floor with more than double the number of free throws made than Wahkiakum.

Wahkiakum won the fourth-place trophy for the fourth time in school history.

Ilwaco won its second trophy in school history and second in two years.
