The Renton girls basketball team saw their nine game win streak snapped last week but then started what they hope will be a new run with a win on Friday. Hazen, meanwhile, picked up two more wins, but the news was not as good for Lindbergh who dropped both of their games.

RENTON

Despite reeling off nine straight wins, league-leading Kennedy Catholic proved too much for the Indians on Jan. 21 as the Lancers came to Renton High School and beat the Indians 58-39.

Kenendy jumped out to a 16-11 lead after the first, but Renton battled back to win the second quarter and narrow the score to a 24-22 Kennedy lead at the half.

In the third quarter, Kennedy outscored the Indians 16-10 to take a 40-32 lead after three. Renton rallied in the final frame, but it was not enough as Kennedy was able to hold off the Indians. Shelby Proctor had 13 points for Renton in the loss.

The Indians rebounded on Friday, however, blasting Tyee 62-17 at home in a game that was never close.

Renton’s defense was stifling and the Totems had trouble breaking through all game, leading to a 26-8 halftime lead.

No stats were available for the game.

The Indians are now 12-5 overall and 9-2 in the Seamount. They are in second place behind Kennedy.

Renton headed to Hazen on Wednesday and will play Evergreen on Friday at Renton High School.

HAZEN

The Highlanders picked up a pair of wins this week, first over Foster and then at Highline.

The Highlanders welcomed the Foster on Jan. 21 and immediately dispatched their guests with a 55-28 win over the struggling Bulldogs. Hazen outscored Foster 27-11 in the first half.

Katie Dunne led the way for the Highlanders with 14 points in the win.

On Friday, Hazen beat Highline on a strong first half and then hung on as the Pirates made it a game.

The Highlanders opened the game with a 16-4 first quarter and a 29-14 halftime lead, but the Pirates just would not go away. Highline outscored Hazen 12-9 in the third to make it 38-26 and then continued their rally through the fourth, though in the end, Hazen was able to hang on for the victory.

Hazen’s Kaya Dumas led all scorers with 21 points while Brenna Hairston added 11 of her own.

Hazen welcomes Renton on Wednesday and travels to Kennedy on Friday for a match-up with the league-leading Lancers.

LINDBERGH

It was another tough week for the Lindbergh Eagles, who fell at home to Evergreen on Jan. 21 and then had to face league-leading Kennedy Catholic on Friday.

The Eagles put up a fight against Evergreen, who jumped out to an 11-6 first quarter lead before the Eagles rallied back to make it 22-17 at the half. The Eagles won the third quarter 17-16 to pull the score to 38-34 as the teams headed to the final frame, but Evergreen doubled up the Eagles in the fourth for a 48-39 final score.

Lindbergh’s Connie Tua led all scorers with 15 in the loss.

On Friday, the Eagles ran into the Kennedy Catholic buzzsaw and fell 67-43 to the Lancers.

No statistics were available from the game.

Lindbergh is now 4-12 on the season and 3-8 in the Seamount. They played Tyee on Wednesday and then travel to Highline tonight, Friday.
