Christmas break came at the perfect time for the Walla Walla boys basketball
team. After reaching the 4A state semifinals in football, several key Blue
Devils such as Casey Waddell, Pierce Johnson, Zac Widmer and Craig Mettler
were nursing injuries. Waddell missed two games recovering from a sprained
ankle. Since coming back from the two-week break, Wa-Hi has gone 3-0 and
asserted itself into the thick of the Big Nine Conference race at 5-1, one
game behind first-place Davis.

real issues you need to resolve - like quitting smoking, losing weight or
paying off debts - why not jump on them now....
