Lakewood athletes were named conference champs in eight events when Cedarcrest hosted the Cascade Conference track and field championships May 7 and 9.Junior sprinter Devon Smith followed prelim victories in the 200- and 400-meter dashes with championships in the May 9 finals. Smith also closed what was roughly a 50-meter gap as the anchor of Lakewood's winning 4x400 relay, as the Cougars overtook King's in the final stretch. With a 48-second leg, Smith helped the relay team break school and conference records.
Smith's relay teammate, senior Terrence Ordonez also had a career day as he broke meet and stadium records in the boys 800 finals to beat Coupeville standout Kyle King and South Whidbey's Scott Stallman. Ordonez cut more than seven seconds off his time two days earlier to finish in 1:58.20, trailed just tenths of a second by King and Stallman. With the event victory, Ordonez helped hold off a three-event championship by King, who won the mile and two mile.

Tomahawk baseball state-bound
Aug 28 2008, 4:14 PM
EVERETT? Two great back-to-back playoff performances from the M-P baseball team secured the Tomahawks a trip to state for the first time since 2005.In their May 5 opener against Jackson, the boys ripped a series of hits and built a six-run advantage in the first inning, which led them to a 10-0 victory in five innings on the Timberwolves' home diamond. Senior pitcher Frankie Nelson threw a one-hitter, no-walk game while senior clean-up batter Riley Gilbertson went 3-for-4 at bat with a double and three RBIs.
"I was just looking for a first-pitch fastball, and they gave it to me," Gilbertson said afterward. The senior first baseman kept a third-inning drive alive with his third hit when he outpsyched the Jackson second baseman in a situation where he should have been out. The fielder had the ball as Gilbertson neared second, but the Tomahawk didn't give up.

The state soccer tournament bracket begs the question, as Lakewood and Cedarcrest face a possible second-round match-up, assuming they emerge from first-round wins over Mark Morris High School and Centralia High School, respectively. (The games took place May 13 after The Globe went to press.)
