FRIDAY QUICK RECAP

Knappa's boys built a 20-point first half lead and went on to defeat De La Salle 57-47 to clinch second place in the Northwest League.

The Loggers will host Portland Lutheran Tuesday night at 7:00 p.m. in the first round of the league playoffs and will play again Saturday at Milwaukie.

Brian Riffe hit four 3-pointers to lead the way with 19 points. Riffe also put forth a strong defensive effort on De La Salle's leading scorer Bruce Farrell, limiting him to seven points in the game. Robert Auger led De La Salle with 19 points. The Knights played without Amanuel Lemo, who will be unavailable for the remainder of the playoffs after failing to meet the school's grade requirements.

The Lady Loggers made it a sweep with a 46-37 victory over the Knights. Knappa will travel to Nestucca for a first-round playoff game on Tuesday.
