THREE-WAY TIE IN GIRLS HOOPS

There's a three-way tie for the fourth-and-final playoff spot in the senior girls high school basketball league. White Pines, Korah and Mount St. Joseph all completed the regular season with 4-8 records and will decide fourth place next week. Korah and Mount St. Joseph will play off on Monday with the winner meeting White Pines on Tuesday for fourth place. White Pines gets the bye into Tuesday because of a better overall record during the regular season in head-to-head competition with Korah and the Mount. Korah, by the way, forced the three-way tie on Thursday with a 30-23 win over Sir James Dunn, which had already clinched third place. SJD finishes the regular season with a 5-7 record. Also on Thursday, St. Basil completed an undefeated regular season with a 29-27 over St. Mary's, which finishes second with a 10-2 record. Bawating, with a 3-9 record, finishes in last place, out of the playoffs.
