The last time Sammamish and Lake Washington faced off, the margin was a single bucket. It was the same story on Tuesday, except this time it was the Totems celebrating after a 71-69 win that moves them to a perfect 6-0.

Senior John Steinberg led the way for the Totems with 25 points with Sami Jarjour adding 16 and George Valle 16 more.

The Kangs held a six point lead after the first quarter, but Sammamish used a 13 point advantage in the third to gain control before hanging on down the stretch.

"Both teams played really hard," Totems' head coach Wes Newton said. "All the guys battled."

Newton also pointed out the defensive contributions of Jarjour and fellow senior Jacob West, who he called "outstanding".

Guy Lynott paced the Kangs with 23 points while Darien Nelson-Henry and Matt Staudacher both finished with 16, but it wasn't enough for Lake Washington, which suffered its first loss of the season.

That leaves coach Wes Newton's squad as the lone unbeaten in 2A/3A KingCo conference play other than Bellevue, which has yet to face a conference opponent.

"The guys were fired up and excited," Newton said of the postgame locker room. "They were also quick to point out it is just one game and they can't be content."
