Garfield – Statement win – Lincoln – New look

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Garfield topped Rainier Beach in a match-up of Metro league powers and solidified themselves as one of the Class 3A favorites. It was the size of Garfield vs the talented backcourt from Rainier Beach. Size prevailed. Further south Lincoln's new look team is atop the league standings. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["923119"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"He is a load in the post for Garfield and led them with 23 points on 9-14 shooting in the win over Beach.

He and [player_tooltip player_id='923111' first='Miles' last='Gurske'], another transfer from Timberline make for a tough backcourt. Although they lost to Garfield, Rainier Beach has weapons. Gurske is a top-notch guard in the Metro league and state. Both of these two have stepped up and will look to lead their team to a strong finish and post-season success.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"Omarian Boston ","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2023","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"77247","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Lincoln ","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"The senior transfer from Washington HS has given the new-look Lincoln team a huge boost. He is a monster on the boards and is getting 20 points a game to go with 12 rebounds averaging a double-double. He is always around the ball and capitalizes on getting easy buckets through hard work in the paint. He can also step out with a smooth jumper from mid-range. He has a soft shooting touch and is like a pogo stick with his rebounding and putbacks. Lincoln is a new-look team with transfer guards [player_tooltip player_id='1315357' first='Isaiah' last='Cunningham'] (12ppg) and [player_tooltip player_id='1588009' first='Zion' last='Norman'] making it three new faces.
