Washington High School - Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Sanchez has special feeling as Wash clips Cougars

Mon - 18 Feb Written by Jim Ecker

Adam Sanchez sat on the bench as a graduate assistant coach at Drake University five years ago when the Bulldogs had their magical 28-5 season, cracked the national rankings and reached the NCAA tournament for the first time in eons.

The rookie head coach had that special feeling again Monday night after his upstart Washington Warriors clipped Kennedy, 48-42, in the quarterfinals of the Class 4A substate tournament at Kennedy.

The Warriors (7-15) did not win a single game last season, but they're feeling good about themselves heading into Friday's encounter with No.3 Western Dubuque (21-0) in the semifinals at Epworth.

C.R. Washington girls blitz Linn-Mar, 64-35

Sun - 17 Feb Written by Don Taylor

Cedar Rapids Washington hosted Linn-Mar in a Class 5A regional semifinal game Saturday night and hit on all cylinders.

Washington dominated the contest, 64-35.

The Warriors (16-6) will face No. 6 Waukee (17-5) in the regional finals Tuesday night at Ankeny. The winner will advance to the state tournament.

Washington’s aggressive press, its ability to knock down the 3-point shot and its nearly flawless execution on offense were more than Linn-Mar could handle.

“I think our press was outstanding tonight,” said Washington Coach Frank Howell. “We shifted our feet and played without reaching and our ball movement was crisp and efficient.

"We had great contributions from everyone, including the bench, and we played with confidence.”

Washington had four players in double figures. The Warriors were led in scoring by Abby Herb with 15 points. Aleena Hobbs and Devin Glenski netted 13 apiece, and Dani Franklin had 12.
