The girls basketball team lost 40-39 to second-ranked Rainier Beach on

Saturday in the District 2 tournament. Morgan Zajonc tied the game at 39-39

on a trey from the right corner with 15 seconds left, but Rainier Beach sank

a free throw three seconds later to take a one-point lead. Bainbridge called

time out to set up a play. Tight Viking defensive pressure kept the Spartans

from getting a good look at the hoop and a shot with two seconds left missed

badly.

Zajonc scored 12 points - all in the second half - to lead Bainbridge

scoring. Alice Russell had eight.

The Spartans face Blanchet in a loser-out game on Tuesday at Bellevue

Community College. Tipoff time is 4:45.

A full report on Saturday's game will appear in Wednesday's Review.
