Courtney Snodgrass shot a 209 high game and Lynze Moon a 388 series as the Washington girls toppled Xavier, 2618-2500, Friday in a bowling match at May City Bowl.
Xavier's Tara Trcka shot high game and series with a 237 and 410, respectively. Lisa Olberding shot a 212 game.
Washington held an 83-pin lead after the first round and won the Baker round by 35 pins.
The Stealth Bomber delivered her weapons at the right time Thursday night for the Cedar Rapids Washington girls basketball team.
Aleena Hobbs hit a key 3-pointer and scored 16 points as the Warriors topped Xavier, 57-49, in a Mississippi Valley Conference game at Xavier.
Washington volleyball coach Kari Lombardi gave Hobbs the nickname of "Stealth Bomber" this fall because the 5-foot-10 junior is a good jumper who can slam the ball at the net and surprise opponents with her power.
Washington basketball coach Frank Howell hasn't come up with his own nickname for her yet.
"No, I guess I don't," he said. "That's unfortunate, because I usually come up with some pretty good nicknames.
"The Stealth Bomber is applicable to basketball, too."
The Warriors (8-2, 4-2) used key 3-pointers in the fourth period to gain the edge in a tight contest.
Last Updated on Friday, 04 January 2013 00:48Ryo Ueno, Logan Barnes and Jared Thorson won individual events Thursday as Cedar Rapids Washington defeated Cedar Falls, 106-64, in a Mississippi Valley Conference swimming meet at Washington.
Ueno won the 200 freestyle, Barnes captured the 100 butterfly and Thorson took the 100 freestyle.
The Warriors also won the 200 medley relay, 200 freestyle relay and 400 freestyle relay.
The winner of the 50-yard freestyle was not included in the official results.
Last Updated on Thursday, 03 January 2013 23:25Cedar Rapids Washington senior Abby Herb did not want any big parties at school or any press conferences when she signed a letter-of-intent to play basketball at Mount Mercy University.
She's excited about the next step in her life and looking forward to playing for the Mustangs, but she's kind of shy and wanted to sign quietly last month.
"I just wanted to sign the paper without a bunch of people there and get all nervous and my hand would be shaking," she said.
There have been some outstanding point guards in the Metro area in recent years with Marcus Paige, Wes Washpun and Taylor Olson.
Jacob Olson is making a strong push this season to make it a foursome.
Olson poured in a career-high 31 points Friday night to steer Jefferson past Washington, 57-36, in a Mississippi Valley Conference game in the Washington gym.
