In a game that featured a combined 17 made 3-pointers, Columbia River hit back-to-back-to-back 3s off three Ridgefield turnovers to begin the third quarter to pull away from the Spudders in their 2A GSHL road victory.
“That was the difference in the game,” Ridgefield coach Jason Buffum said.
Of the Chieftains’ 22 field goals, 10 were 3s. Spencer Long (River) and Travis Gottsch (Ridgefield) shared game-high honors with 25 points.
