Columbia Basin defeated Multnomah JV in a home tune-up before their December Invitational. Skyln Munson scored 12 points to go along with 10 rebounds off the bench while teammate Aniyah Heavens also added 13 points.

The winning ways continued as the Hawks were able to handle Multnomah in easy fashion. Despite some 3-point woes, Basin was able to spread the minutes around as plenty of Hawks saw 15 minutes or more of court time. The Lions were held scoreless for the first 7 minutes of the game as they were unable to break the CBC defense. Meanwhile, the starting 5 faced some bad bounces on point blank looks and some open 3's.

As the game wore on, the Hawks were able to turn defense into offense scoring 28 points off of turnovers. The CBC bench was able to pick it up scoring 36 of the team's 76 as the second half wore on. Sophomore 2-sport athlete Jayauna Keister was able to score her first points of the season fresh off the 2023 Championship in Soccer while adding 4 steals.

CBC put the game to bed with a 22-5 fourth quarter as they move to 5-0 on the year. They will open up the December Invite against Nation JUCO perennial Snow College in their biggest test of the preseason so far. Tipoff is scheduled for Friday at 3pm.
