2B State Finals Preview, Napavine vs. Okanogan
By Steven Dion

The Gridiron Classic kicks off with an intriguing 2B matchup with Okanogan and Napavine. The Bulldogs from the northeast corner of Washington made a statement in the semifinals by pitching a shutout against the 2-time defending champions in Lind-Ritzville-Sprague by the score of 34-0. Okanogan had a fluky loss to Brewster midway through the season, but beat the Bears by four touchdowns the second time the two met up. Napavine dominated Toledo in many key statistical categories last week in the semis, but advanced with a slim six point margin. The Tigers accumulated 346 total yards in the contest and nearly doubled the Indians in plays and first downs.

One thing that Josh Fay may emphasize to his team is not allowing Okanogan to sneak back into the contest late if NHS holds a lead. The combo of Taylor Hicks to Grant McEwen was very effective last Saturday which may lead to more that 11 pass attempts for the Tigers signal-caller in the 2B championship. The last time either of these teams appeared in the championship game was 2008 when Napavine claimed the title. If Okanogan can channel the dominance they demonstrated last weekend, they will be one tough customer. Bringing the hardware home would certainly make the 12 hour round trip for Steve Chamberlain and his Bulldogs well worth it.

Darrington Loggers Chop Down Seattle Lutheran
By Colin Caruso

On a beautiful day in Seattle with the sun shining, the Darrington Loggers traveled south to the big city to take on the Seattle Lutheran Saints. Both of these teams seemingly didn’t want to hold onto the football for the first quarter, which saw six turnovers, three from each team prior to a Bruce Massingale 99 yard score from the Loggers. The Saints turned the ball over again on their next possession, and this time Lane Monteith pounded the ball in the endzone for the Loggers, taking a 12-0 lead into the second quarter.

The game turned sour for the Saints in the second quarter. Two more turnovers for the Saints and a 28 point quarter for the Loggers really put this game out of reach. The Saints were able to get on the board late in the second quarter with a great TD run by Abijah Smith, but still they trailed 40-7 at the half.

The Loggers would tack on two more scores in the third quarter, and an additional score in the fourth, to bring their total to a whopping 60 points on the day. Darrington now moves to 4-0 overall with a good opportunity to make a run deep into the playoffs.

Top Performers:
Darrington
Bruce Massingale – 8 carries 207 yards, 2TD
Lane Monteith – 8 carries 39 yards, 2TD
Garrett Green – 8 carries 162 yards, TD

Seattle Lutheran
Abijah Smith – 94 yards, rushing TD

Lake Roosevelt Shuts Out Seattle Lutheran
By Colin Caruso

With Seattle Lutheran Saints senior star Abijah Smith sidelined with a concussion from last week, the Lake Roosevelt Raiders capitalized on interior runs to trample the shorthanded Saints. Seattle Lutheran went into their bag of tricks on the first drive of the game and completed a halfback pass all the way to the 3 yard line. Everything went downhill from the Saints from there. Lake Roosevelt pushed them back to the 12 in the next three downs and blocked the Saints attempt at a field goal. The Saints would not see the redzone for the remainder of the day.

Lake Roosevelt dominated the line of scrimmage on both offense and defense. Only attempting one pass in the game, the Raiders marched down the field on multiple drives with handoffs and tosses, amassing 6 touchdowns on the ground. They dominated in the first half, scoring 33 of their 40 points prior to their locker room trip. With grueling defense and a stellar running game, the Raiders shut down Seattle Lutheran by a final score of 40-0.

Top Performers:
Lake Roosevelt
Josiah Desautel – 3 carries 136 yds, 3TD, 1 punt return TD
Josh Harris – 7 carries 57 yards, TD
Jesse Louie – 6 carries 93 yards, TD

Seattle Lutheran
Tyler Hammond – 9 carries 56 yds
Ben Sanders – 11 carries 57 yds
