The Dimond boys lost a basketball game on Saturday, but still advanced into the tournament semifinals.
The Lynx fell 48-39 to Vashon, Washington, in the first round of the Cactus Jam Phoenix Hoops Classic basketball tournament in Phoenix, Arizona. But because of a quirk in the "Jam" bracket, the Lynx still have a shot at winning their division. The loser of the Dimond-Vashon game automatically moved into the semifinals of the six-team bracket, where the Lynx will play Scottsdale Christian at 4 p.m. on Monday.
