MOUNT VERNON — They lost a game for the first time this season, they lost a chance at getting a bye at the next stage, but the La Center Wildcats have not lost their confidence. More importantly, their season is not lost. “I think we played with them for two-and-a-half quarters, and then we couldn’t hit a shot,” La Center girls basketball coach Herm VanWeerdhuizen said after his team fell to Lynden Christian 56-38 in a Class 1A state regional round. Sam Van Loo scored 16 points and Emmalee Bailey made four 3-pointers, leading Lynden Christian to this victory in the 2-7 seeding game at Mount Vernon High School. The win sends Lynden Christian (23-1) directly to the state quarterfinals at the Yakima Valley SunDome on Thursday. La Center (22-1) will play an elimination game in the round of 12 at the dome at 10:30 a.m.
