The Centralia girls basketball team fell behind early and never quite recovered Monday, falling to 3A Mountain View 52-40 at Fort Vancouver.
Emily Wilkerson dropped 25 points to lead all scorers, but the rest of the Centralia lineup combined for just 15, with nobody else putting up more than four.
The Thunder rode out to a 19-6 lead after a quarter of play, and Centralia was only able to shave a couple of points off that gap in the following quarters, before scoring just six in the fourth.
Centralia will take on Aberdeen on Wednesday.
