Dayton Girls Remain Undefeated

DAYTON – The Dayton girls’ basketball team picked up its first two wins in the new Eastern Washington Athletic Conference last week, downing Walla Walla Valley Academy at home, 50-42 on Tuesday, and then trouncing Kittitas, 56-20, on the road.

Against WWVA, Dayton took a 21-13 lead into halftime, and then played the Knights evenly in the second half to preserve the win.

“We felt fortunate to win the ball game as we felt we did not play our best,” said Dayton coach Clayton Strong. “But WWVA did some things that bothered us a little bit.”
