Pirates Rain Down 3s in Thumping of Mules

Posted

Sometimes, it’s just your night. That seems to happen more often than not for the Adna boys basketball team, which shot its way past Wahkiakum, 87-47, Monday night at home. 

The Pirates made 14 3-pointers as a team, with a whopping eight shots from deep coming from Chase Collins, alone. The shooter made four in the first quarter, and never looked back in a 28-point performance. 

Three other Pirates scored in double figures, including Braeden Salme (15 points), Lane Johnson (14 points) and Eli Smith (11 points). 

As a team, Adna had 25 assists and just five turnovers in a dominant and incredibly clean showcase. 

The Pirates will look to keep the shots falling against Pe Ell on Wednesday, though the Trojans have been in COVID-19 protocol. If that game is canceled, they would play next against Toutle Lake at the Moda Center in Portland on Saturday.
