BBB playoffs

After beating Shorewood in the first round of the playoffs, the Oak Harbor boys team traveled to Jackson HS Saturday evening to take on the 21-2 Mountlake Terrace Hawks in a semi-final game.

The game did not go well for the Wildcats.  Terrace was very aggressive on both offense and defense coming out, and quickly jumped to a 26-7 first-quarter lead and didn't let up for the rest of the half, leading 46-11 at halftime.  Things quieted down in the 3rd quarter with OH scoring 6 and MT 8, but it was still all Hawks, 54-17, going in to the fourth.  In the final quarter, the Wildcat offense found some life, scoring 15 points, but it wasn't enough as Terrace went on to win 64-32.  With the loss, the Wildcats were dropped into the losers bracket to play Shorecrest, who lost their first-round game but won the second.  Terrace moves on to play Stanwood for the District 1 title.

Dayne Herron and Chris Hailer scored 9 each in the loss, Jojo Webster 6, Drew Washington 4 and Dyllan Harris and Gabe Groenig 2 each.

One good thing about the loss to MLT was that the 'Cats would have one more home game.  The stands were packed and loud, and the fans made a difference as Oak Harbor beat Shorecrest 47-46 to stay alive.

After sprinting to an early 13-2 lead, the 'Cats let the Scots back in the game, but held on to a 15-10 lead at the first buzzer and 28-23 at halftime.  In the second half, neither team shot well, but Shorecrest continued to close the gap and grabbed small leads on several occasions.  In the end, it was a pair of free throws by Dayne Herron with less than 15 seconds on the clock that put the Wildcats up by 4, and a key defensive rebound by Chris Hailer that put the game away.  A last second shot by Shorecrest, while good, wasn't enough as Oak Harbor won 47-46.  Drew Washington, Jojo Webster and Chris Hailer each scored 10 points, Herron scored 9 and Dyllan Harris and Gabe Groenig 4 each.

With the win, the Wildcats travel to Jackson HS again for a loser out, winner to regionals game against Glacier Peak.  The game is Saturday evening at 6pm, followed by the MLT/Stanwood championship game.
