Jake Blakney scored 11 points for Post Falls (15-1, 3-0 5A IEL), which hosts Moscow on Tuesday.

KALISPELL, Mont. - Joe Pasquale scored 11 points for the Timberwolves in a loss to the Wolfpack.

"It's not an excuse, but to go on the road 4 1/2 hours the day after a league game, we need to learn how to do that," Lake City assistant coach Kelly Reed said. "It makes things more difficult, but we played a good Glacier team. We executed well offensively and defensively, but we couldn't get the ball in the basket. It's hard to come off an emotional game against the one of the state's best teams and drive 4 1/2 hours. We had good effort and energy. The ball just didn't go in very often."

Brandon Dotson and Nick Hancock scored nine points each for Lake City (8-7), which travels to Lakeland on Friday.

Moscow 44

SPIRIT LAKE - Daniel Smith scored 15 points to lead the Tigers past the Bears in a nonleague game.

"Our defense was the difference in the game," Timberlake coach Tony Hanna said. "It was a big game for us confidence wise. We had a few games where we've made some comebacks and it didn't go our way. As young and inexperienced as we are, hopefully it does some good for us moving forward."
