Washington - Boys Basketball
Michael Mims sure knows how to change a game.
Making three spectacular plays that shifted the momentum of the game, the 5-foot-9 junior guard led the Prairie Hawks to a workmanlike 47-41 victory over the Washington Warriors Friday night at Washington.
Prairie won its second game in a row and improved to 4-7 overall and 2-5 in the Mississippi Valley Conference. Washington lost its third straight and slipped to 2-7 overall and 2-5 in the MVC.

Alex Landers scored 19 points and Lincoln Conrey collected a double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds Tuesday night as Waterloo West spanked Washington, 69-44, in a Mississippi Valley Conference basketball game at Washington.
Jared Printy hit three 3-pointers and scored 11 points for the Warriors (2-6, 2-4). Maurice Arrington grabbed eight rebounds.

When the chips were down Friday night on their home floor, the Xavier boys counted on their two aces.
Sharpshooters Adam McDermott and Calvin Winker accounted for 13 points in a fourth-quarter surge that brought the Saints from a seven-point deficit to a come-from-behind 63-58 win over Washington in a Mississippi Valley Conference game.
“They're our money players,” said Xavier Coach Ryan Luehrsmann, “and they rose to the occasion. They made their shots when it counted.”

With up-and-coming junior jumping jack Maurice Arrington playing his second great game in a row, the Washington boys rolled over Jefferson 56-41 Friday night in the J-Hawk gym.
The long-limbed 6-foot-6 first-year starter, who scored 17 two weeks ago in a loss to Kennedy, had a career-high 19 points on a variety of slick inside moves and even one 3-pointer.
“He's consistently getting better and better,” Warrior Coach Adam Sanchez said of the athletic stringbean. “He's starting to understand how he can become a really good player.”
Washington - Boys Basketball
CEDAR FALLS - Ben Jacobson loves what Wes Washpun has added to the University of Northern Iowa basketball team this season, both on the court and off the court.
Both parts have been important.
"I'll start with maybe the non-basketball stuff. His enthusiasm, his competitiveness," the UNI coach said Saturday night after the Panthers beat Iona, 90-78, in the McLeod Center.
"Most of the time he's got a smile on his face. When he doesn't," Jacobson said, smiling himself and chuckling, "it's because he's usually arguing with one of his teammates."
