GIRLS’ BASKETBALL ROUNDUP: Different players step up in Ferndale win

The Ferndale girls’ basketball team had three different players take over different parts of the game, as they cruised to a 62-39 win over Franklin during the final day of the Eastside Catholic Christmas Classic on Wednesday, Dec. 23.

Darrien Camarillo scored 13 of her game-high 25 points in the first quarter to help the Golden Eagles jump out to a 20-10 lead. Gabrielle Edison then scored nine of her 11 points in the second quarter to help Ferndale increase its halftime lead to 31-16. Freshman Nicole Guessford then scored all eight of her points in the fourth quarter to help her team close out the game.

“We’re so young and, with no varsity experience, it was great to see the girls believe in themselves,” Ferndale coach Mike Ivy said in a phone interview. “We had a really good first half.”

Other results

Mount Baker 53, Mountlake Terrace 26: Mount Baker bounced back from its first loss of the season to earn a dominating nonleague win over Class 3A Mountlake Terrace. Emily Brandland scored a game-high 28 points to go with 10 rebounds, and Kylind Powell added eight points and a team-best 13 rebounds. Baker built a 35-6 halftime lead.

I think they all felt like we needed to get back to playing the type of basketball we know we can play.
