Torrey Drops 32 as Vikings Roll Past MWP

Posted

Mossyrock junior Payton Torrey dropped a game-high 32 points with four 3-pointers and Mossyrock rolled past visiting Morton-White Pass, 53-29, in a non-league matchup on Friday.

It was just the Vikings’ second game in the past 37 days, and first since Jan. 8, and the rust certainly showed in the first quarter as they led just 9-7 after one quarter.

“It was a rough start and things just looked a little shaky,” Mossyrock coach Autumn Moorcroft said. “Once we worked out the jitters, we got the ball rolling.”

Mossyrock outscored the Timberwolves 17-5 in the third quarter and 11-6 in the fourth to seal the victory. 

“Payton shot really well and the rest of the team did their jobs and shot well in the second half,” Moorcroft said. 

Mossyrock (7-2, 2-0 1BCVL) continues league play when it heads to Menlo to face Willapa Valley at 7 p.m. on Saturday.
