Sweet Home will face either the Phoenix Pirates or the Sutherlin Bulldogs in the second round of state 4A boys basketball playoffs at home on Saturday, Feb. 6.
It may not have been the trophy they were aiming for, but the Sweet Home wrestlers’ second-place finish at the state 4A wrestling championships was a masterful piece of work last weekend.
The Huskies dispatched Taft and Philomath last week to secure their first Val-Co league championship in boys basketball and first seed in state playoffs. Sweet Home finished the league season with one loss, to Central, which last week was ranked tied for first with the Huskies in the state coaches poll and second behind Sweet Home in the Oregonian poll.
The Huskies finished their season in girls basketball defeating Taft 33-13 on the road Friday after losing 66-8 to Philomath on Feb. 16.
As he takes over Sweet Home’s high school baseball program, Matt Matuszak knows what it’s like to wear a Husky uniform.
The Sweet Home wrestling team won its 10th consecutive district title Saturday night at Central.
With swimmers qualifying to swim in 10 of 11 championship races, the Sweet Home boys dominated the state swim meet Saturday and captured its second state title in a row.
The Huskies lost 63-19 at Central in girls basketball Friday night.
In its final dual meet before heading to the Val-Co District Championships this Saturday, Feb. 20, the Sweet Home wrestling team beat Lebanon 41-33.
Plans by the Oregon School Activities Association to substantially reduce the size of the state championship fields in cross-country and wrestling are raising ire among Sweet Home coaches, who say the changes are unfair to athletes and don’t make sense.
