Shorewood girls' basketball victory Wednesday ends 3 game losing streak


The Shorewood girls' basketball team broke its three-game losing streak with a victory at Stanwood Wednesday that ended Stanwood's 11-game winning streak.

The victory finished Shorewood's regular season with a 9-4 Western Conference 3A record (14-6 overall) and sends the Thunderbirds into the Northwest District 3A tournament as the No. 2 Wesco 3A South team and No. 4 overall seed, meaning that Shorewood will play its first-round tournament game at home Tuesday at 7 p.m. against Everett (6-7 Wesco 3A, 10-10).

The Shorewood-Everett winner advances to a Feb. 8 semifinal game at Lynnwood High School against the winner of a first-round game between Stanwood (12-1, 17-3) and Meadowdale (8-5, 13-7). The losers of those two games meet in an elimination game at the home of the higher seeded team.

In Shorewood's 64-39 victory over Stanwood, the Thunderbirds outscored the Wesco North champion Spartans in every quarter, leading 18-16 after the first period, 30-23 at halftime and 46-34 after three quarters before outscoring Stanwood 18-5 in the final period. Masha Shtikel led Shorewood with 17 points; Kassie Rasmussen and Lauren Thompson each scored 11; Angel Tulee added 10 points for the T-birds, followed by Lily Gustafson with 8.

The Shorewood junior varsity defeated the Stanwood JVs, 40-39, to finish the season with a 6-7 Wesco 3A record (9-10 overall).

Shtikel led the Shorewood varsity for the 20-game regular season with 394 points for an average of 19.7 points per game.
