Boys basketball: Wolves top Knights for fourth league win

Exacting a bit of revenge to a league loss earlier this season, Sequim’s boys defended their home court with a solid 60-49 win over Bremerton on Jan. 17.

Vince Carrizosa led a balanced Sequim offense with 14 points, knocking down a trio of 3-pointers in the third quarter.

Isaiah Moore added 12 points, nine in the first half, while Zack Thompson had eight and Cody Smithson had six.

Samuel Tucker led the Knights with 23 points, 15 of those coming in the first half.

Two days later, the Wolves dropped an 87-49 decision to league-leading North Kitsap in Poulsbo, giving the Vikings a season sweep.

The defeat leaves Sequim with a 4-6 record in the Olympic League, tied for fourth with Olympic’s Trojans — and 6-10 overall.
