FILER, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) — Filer 69, Gooding 36
Girls’ district basketball tournaments kicked off Monday evening, marking the start of the postseason.
KMVT was on sight for the 3A Sawtooth Central Idaho Conference.
First up it was the top-seeded Filer Wildcats hosting the fourth-seeded Gooding Senators.
The Wildcats swept the regular season series 2-0 against the Senators.
Early on the Senators were putting up a fight.
They outrebounded the Wildcats early in the first, creating second-chance opportunities.
That display, however, didn’t last long as Filer found their rhythm.
Resounding defense led to easy transition points.
Senior Hazel Fischer had the hot hand early as Filer led 44-21 at the half.
The dominance would continue into the second half, as Filer would win 69-36.
Junior Reese Hills led the Wildcats offensively with 15 points while sophomore Tanli LeMoyne added 12 in the win.
Sophomore Aubrey Westling and Fischer would both finish the night with 11 points.
Gooding’s Audrey Schilder was a bright spot for the Senators on Monday night. The Senators sophomore finished with a game-high 16 points.
Kimberly 54, Buhl 23
20 minutes east at Kimberly High School, the two-seeded Bulldogs welcomed No. 3 Buhl to town.
These two split the regular season series with one win each.
The Bulldogs came out firing in the first quarter.
The Dille cousins, Berkley and Macy, were in their normal bag of tricks, causing headaches for the Indians.
They both had five points early on as the Bulldogs led 15-3 after a quarter.
Into the second, the damage kept on pouring in from Berkley Dille, as she was money from long range.
She had three of Kimberly’s seven three-pointers as Kimberly led 33-13 at the half.
Same storyline in the second half for the Bulldogs, as they came away with a dominant 54-23 victory.
Freshman Taya Plew and Berkley Dille would have 14 points each in the win. Macy Dille would add 11.
Junior Hope Ward would also make her presence known bringing in seven rebounds.

Police Urge Public to Check Bank Statements for Boise-Area Fraud
We’re lucky to live in a place as safe as the Treasure Valley. Despite our growth, one of the things that makes our area so special is the way that we look out for one another–for our neighbors! That’s a principle that seems to have held on as Boise has boomed.
Despite low crime rates, there seems to always be one incident or so that makes us scratch our heads.
A recent string of fraud incidents in the Treasure Valley area is one of those.
Nampa Police initially warned the public of this because cases of fraud began to ‘mushroom’. Then, it took an interesting turn–people that HAD their credit cards were being ‘taken to the bank’, so to speak.
In a statement originally released on April 30th by the Nampa Police Department, officials advised the following:
We are not sure how the suspects are gaining access to the victim’s credit cards. There is a growing fraud scheme, “ghost tapping”, that scammers are using to access victims’ credit cards. This is possibly occurring in these instances. “Ghost tapping” uses stolen credit card details in Apple Pay or Google Pay, then remotely relays the tap signal over the internet to a ‘mule’ at a store, allowing them to make high-value purchases that appear completely legitimate. (We’ll share more information on ghost tapping in a later public service announcement that will also suggest ways to protect yourself.) The app used by these criminals obscures the actual credit card number, making it harder for investigators to link a victim to a particular crime. Keep in mind that victims still have their physical credit cards while suspects use the stolen card information to make purchases, which also affects how victims are alerted. So far, local investigators have not been able to identify a common theme among the victims (e.g., a specific bank, a website they visited, a gas pump they used, etc.) in the fraud cases we are investigating.
The investigation spans far and wide.
Authorities say that some suspects are in custody, others are being contacted, and others are still at large.
Now, a week later, the police are back to reaching out to the public–this time, urging people to check their bank accounts.
Nampa Police say that they have caught onto a pattern– there are fraudulent charges at Albertson’s to purchase gift cards, at Costco to purchase Apple products, and at Best Buy, also for Apple products.
Check those bank statements!

Public Health Alert and Food Recall Issued For Pizza and Pork Rinds Sold in Idaho
The USDA has issued a public health alert for various meat and poultry products containing FDA-regulated dairy that may have been contaminated with salmonella. The recall was originally issued on April 30th, but the contaminated product list could continue to grow as more products are identified.
The Food Safety and Inspection arm of the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued the public health alert and there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of the products listed below, consumers are still advised to dispose of the items or return them to the place of purchase. Great Value and Pork King Good products sold at Idaho Walmart stores are included in the alert and recall.
Public Health Alert and Food Recall Issued For Pizza and Pork Rinds Sold in Idaho
As of right now, the food list includes pork rinds, breakfast pizzas, and chicken bacon ranch pizzas. The list could grow and the USDA advises consumers to check the list frequently. We will also update the list here when possible. The contaminated products carry a variety of ‘Best By’ and ‘Produced On’ dates, so check the lists carefully to make sure you don’t consume a contaminated product.
The nationwide brands to look for are Mama Cozzi’s from Aldi stores, Pork King Good, and Great Value at Walmart Stores.
