VOLLEYBALL

Sophie DeWitt had 11 kills and a block for Astoria, while Meredith Barnes added seven kills. Dani Bergeson provided strong defensive play off the bench for the Fishermen, who travel to Seaside on Tuesday. Tillamook completed the first round of league play with a 3-game sweep at Yamhill-Carlton and currently leads the Cowapa League standings with a 5-0 record.

GIRLS SOCCER

La Salle 3, Astoria 1...The unbeaten, 4th-ranked Falcons outshot Astoria 14-5 on the way to a non-league victory. Brooke Schauermann netted her third goal in two games with a 30-foot-plus rocket that ricocheted off the head of a La Salle defender over the goalkeeper's head with about 15 minutes of play remaining. The Fishermen just missed a potential game-tying goal earlier in the half when Melissa Law took a through ball pass from Sarah Pope to within 15 yards of goal, but her shot was just tipped wide of the far post. Astoria played without three starters and was unable to field a complete J.V. team due to various injuries. All three players are expected to be back in the lineup for the beginning of District 1 play next week. Astoria has a final nonleague game scheduled for Saturday at noon at Montesano, a Washington 1A quarterfinal team in 2006.

Seaside 2, Tillamook 0...The Seagulls opened their District 1 schedule with a win at Tillamook to improve to 5-1 overall. No details were reported.s
