The Ridgefield Spudders got an opening night victory in their coach’s first game with some clutch free throws from a player who had to work on his weakness in order to be successful.
Yeah, the Spudders surely are enjoying the start of basketball.
Meanwhile, Fort Vancouver might have ended up on the wrong side of the scoreboard, but the Trappers gave their fans some excitement. How about a 3-pointer at the buzzer to force overtime?
In the end, Ridgefield got the 63-60 win in OT, but really, basketball won Tuesday night at Fort Vancouver High School.
Hoops is here.
There were a couple games on the schedule Monday night, then a few more on Tuesday. By the end of the week, just about every team, boys and girls, will have played their first games of the season.
