Bothell Drops Puyallup in First Round of Playoffs
By Steven Dion

The Bothell Cougars had a full week to think about their loss to Skyline last Friday. The 10th ranked team in 4A earned the opportunity to host a first round playoff game versus Puyallup from the SPSL. The Cougs have protected Pop Keeney Stadium nicely this year by beating their opponents by the combined score of 173-34 at home. Tonight was no exception. The Cougs broke the game wide open early by forcing three-and-outs and capitalizing on offense. Sam McPherson returned a punt 70 yards for the score to put BHS up 12-0 in the first. Before halftime, Bothell opened the playbook to the back page by testing senior receiver Cameron Gale’s arm from the flat; a connection with Jackson Keimig in the back of the end zone. At half, the host was up 33-0.

Halftime did not seem to halt the Bothell onslaught as the second half kickoff was returned 100 yards by McPherson. The Viks responded and were finally able to sustain a drive that yielded a handful of red zone snaps, one of which ended with a DJ Winter touchdown. The running clock was in effect during the second half so the scoring subsided greatly. A late score by Bothell was capitalized by a made point-after-touchdown by junior kicker Nicole Daoura. The Cougar sideline erupted as the lone female on either roster notched her first score of the season. Puyallup scored once more on a reception by Levi Jordan to cease the offense for both sides. After four quarters of play, Bothell walked away with a 54-14 win in dominating fashion. The Cougs advance, the Viks end their season 6-4.

Top Performer:

Bothell
Samuel McPherson – 4 total TDs, 2 rushing of 11 and 9 yards, 2 kickoff returns of 70 and 100 yards

To The King, a Crown; Skyline
By Colin Caruso

At risk was the #1 team in the 4A KingCo-Crown league, with the matchup of all-too-familiar opponents who have battled well over the past several years. The Skyline Spartans traveled to their neighbor Issaquah to face the Eagles, the winner to secure a matchup against the top of the KingCo-Crest league. Students and fans from all over came to create a buzz of noise that lasted until the game concluded, which saw

Issaquah broke the scoring drought first in the second quarter, a 44 yard pass from senior quarterback Jack Neary to his senior star wide receiver Derek Chapman. The Issaquah sideline exploded as their Eagles took a 7-0 lead. The teams would exchange field goals later in the quarter and Issaquah took a 10-3 lead into half.

Skyline coach Mat Taylor had something brewing in that halftime speech, because his Spartans came out ready to play in the second half. A 27-0 third quarter in favor of the Spartans completely changed the complexion of the game. Touchdowns came from all different avenues; a pass from Kilton Anderson to Derek Loville, two rushing scores, and a special teams score. Issaquah needed a response and succeeded early in the fourth on another strike from Neary to Chapman to cut the lead to 30-17. But Skyline’s defense held tough, with an amazing second half performance from their defensive line to pressure Neary relentlessly. Skyline secured the victory 30-17 and a matchup with the 4A KingCo-Crest champion Bothell.

Top Performers:
Skyline
Kilton Anderson – 26 yard TD pass
Rashaad Boddie and Chandler Wong – TD run each

Issaquah
Jack Neary – 2TD passes of 44 and 19 yards
Derek Chapman – 2TD receptions

Late Score Propels Woodinville over Redmond
By Steven Dion

A crucial 4A KingCo Crest battle between Woodinville and Redmond took place at a chilly Pop Keeney Stadium in Bothell on Thursday night in front of animated student sections. The league win at stake created a playoff-like environment with the postseason on the horizon. The Falcons drew first blood with a goal line push by Mosses Lee. A big run by Brad Roland set up the score nicely. Redmond woke up in the second quarter by recovering a fumble and turning it into 7 on a 57-yard pass by Zach Wheat. Before halftime, the Mustangs found the end zone once more on a scramble by Wheat. The pocket broke down so the senior tucked and ran it to the corner pylon after getting key blocks downfield. The teams headed to the locker room at 14-7 with Redmond on top.

The Falcons wasted no time to get the offense rolling as Dylan Axelson busted past the goal line on fourth down with less than three minutes into the quarter. At this point, dropped passes, penalties, and short-lived drives started to define the game. The punt unit for each team worked overtime throughout the night, so field position was crucial to build momentum. Redmond regained the lead in the fourth on a 1 yard touchdown run. Woodinville trailed by 4 points with less than 3 minutes remaining when they received the ball. A clutch 4th down reception kept the chains moving. With 0:47 left, Will Jack floated one to Micah Hamilton in the corner of the end zone to grab a lead late. On the ensuing Redmond drive, Ian Biddle picked off a desperation pass. When the dust settled, Woodinville escaped with a 23-20 victory.

Top Performers:

Micah Hamilton – 20-yard game winning touchdown reception

Issaquah Aerial Assault Too Much For Roosevelt
By Steven Dion

The first of two matchups on Leon H. Brigham Field at Memorial Stadium on the first Friday of October featured the host Roosevelt Roughriders and Issaquah. The visiting Eagles squad set the tempo early by completing a 23 yard touchdown strike from Jack Neary to Derek Chapman. Issaquah scored 7 more points a mere 34 seconds later on a 7 yard reception by Jeff Shipley. The Eagles found the end zone one more time in the first frame to take a quick 21-0 lead. The Riders got onto the scoreboard with a 2 yard QB sneak by John Peterson. The efficient passing attack of Issaquah was sustained throughout the entire first half as they notched two more TDs by Shipley again and Tommy Nelson. At the break, the Eagles had a comfortable 35-7 lead.

Roosevelt came out of the locker room with a strong defensive game plan which ultimately shut out Issaquah the rest of the way. But the Riders had a lot of scoring to do. With just over 2 minutes remaining in the third Ian Ashbaugh hauled in a pass from Peterson for six. The Eagles defense was stingy in the redzone throughout the game, preventing several first and goal opportunities. Issaquah’s ability to take a stranglehold of the game early allowed them to control the tempo the rest of the game and ultimately walk away with a convincing 35-13 win.

Top Performers:
Issaquah
Jack Neary – 5 TD passes of 23,7,31,5,28

Roosevelt
John Peterson – 6 yard TD run, 28 yard TD pass, 1/1 extra point kicks

Skyline Eats Garfield’s Lunch
By Colin Caruso

Memorial Stadium was a great site for this KingCo matchup between the Skyline Spartans and the Garfield Bulldogs. The home Bulldogs brought a good amount of noise, but couldn’t match their fans intensity on the field. The first six minutes of the contest saw a fumbling brigade from both teams. The Spartans received and fumbled on their second play from scrimmage. Garfield then fumbled the ball on the next play of the game, and Skyline drove down and scored their first TD on a Kilton Anderson QB keeper to take the lead 7-0. Garfield received the ensuing kick, and fumbled on their next offensive play. Two plays from scrimmage for the Bulldogs, and both resulted in fumbles. Skyline recovered the ball deep in Garfield territory, presumably ready to punch in another touchdown, but they fumbled on their next play and Garfield recovered! Four turnovers, two from each side, in the first 6 minutes of the game!

Garfield punted after recovering Skyline’s second fumble and Spartan Elijah Nichols returned it 72 yards to go up 14-0 halfway through the first quarter. Garfield then fumbled the kickoff (too many fumbles, in my opinion) and Skyline recovered deep in Garfield territory. Chandler Wong rushed the ball in for Skyline 3 plays later to take the lead 21-0, still in the first quarter. Anderson would hook up with Wong once more prior to the first quarter end, on a 4 yard TD pass, to take a 28-0 lead.

At this point the game was in hand, and the next three quarters of play saw just 20 points total. Garfield did end up getting on the board in the fourth quarter with a QB keeper from Winfred Roberson, to cut the Spartan lead to 34. But that was too little too late, as the Spartans rolled 41-7.

Top Performers:
Skyline
Kilton Anderson – 2 rushing TD, 2 passing TD
Chandler Wong – rushing TD, receiving TD

Garfield
Winfred Roberson – Rushing TD

Eastlake’s Offense Smothers Inglemoor
By Steven Dion

Pop Keeney Stadium served as the site for a 4A KingCo Crest showdown between the Inglemoor Vikings and Eastlake Wolves. This was a very important game for each team which has work to do to maintain postseason aspirations. The Viks drew first blood on a 33 yard field goal by Mitchell Barker. He also netted kicks from 23, 27, and 28 yards. Eastlake found the end zone on a Troy Lewis run in the first frame. The Wolves took a 14-3 lead on a pick six in late in the first half. The scoreboard read 14-6 at intermission.

The visiting squad from Sammamish continued to score early in the second half as they added 14 points on a 16 yard pass to Mitchell Augenstein and a 49 yard strike to Jeffrey Feinglas. Eastlake’s success on offense stemmed from their ability to notch big gains on early downs from Lewis to set up manageable third downs to keep the chains moving. Inglemoor had trouble in the red zone, settling for field goals when they needed touchdowns. Viking receiver John Gardner made several spectacular catches in tight coverage. They finally got their score on a 3 yard run late into the fourth, but Lewis responded with a 36 yard scamper of his own to secure the victory. Eastlake controlled the tempo of the game from the start. However, penalties allowed the host Inglemoor squad to keep the game within two possessions until the final minute of the game.

Top Performers:
Eastlake
Troy Davis – 2 rushing TDs

Inglemoor
Mitchell Barker – 4/4 FGs (33,27,23,28)

Bellevue Rolls Over Skyline
By Colin Caruso

The Emerald City Kickoff Classic nightcap saw the Washington state 3A and 4A champions clash in Husky Stadium. Bellevue has won the past five 3A state championships, and Skyline has won four of the last five 4A state championships, a clear clash of the titans. Bellevue came to play early and seemingly caught the 4A state champs off guard, capitalizing on one costly turnover deep in Skyline’s territory and scoring on two rushing touchdowns in the first quarter.

Missed tackles for the Spartans capped off a tough second quarter for Skyline, who found themselves down 35-0 on two more Bellevue rushing touchdowns and one passing touchdown from Timmy Haehl to Marek Spooner. The team speed discrepancy was very apparent from the onset of this game; it seemed as if Bellevue was in a different gear for the first 24 minutes of this contest.

Skyline began to move the football more in the third quarter, putting together a couple of good drives and moving into Bellevue territory. The Wolverine defense bent a little bit in the third but did not break, and Bellevue added a field goal in the quarter to go into the fourth up 38-0.

Both teams began using reserve players in the fourth, as the game was already well over by half. Skyline managed to get on the board late in the quarter, on a long run by Kilton Anderson. Bellevue also added a touchdown in the quarter, and sealed the victory 45-7.

Top Performers:
Bellevue
Sam Richmond – 7 carries 113 yds, 1TD
Budda Baker – 6 carries 69 yds, 2TD

Bothell Beats Idaho’s Finest in a Shootout
By Colin Caruso

Bothell kicked off their 2013 season about as well as you could, receiving the opening kick from the Coeur d’Alene Vikings and returning it 88 yards for a touchdown. Needless to say, Coeur d’Alene was caught a little off guard from their five plus hour bus ride to Western Washington earlier in the morning. But their woes ended quickly, with three drives leading to 24 unanswered points to take the lead 24-7 early in the second.

Bothell needed a response from their offense who had yet to put points on the board, and received it just two minutes later with a 70 yard drive and a passing touchdown from Ross Bowers to Dayzell Wilson to cut the lead to 10. But the Vikings again responded with a touchdown, to take the lead 30-14 into halftime.

The Cougars came out strong to start the third quarter, putting up an early touchdown and two point conversion to cut the lead to 30-22. Bothell forced a three and out on the Vikings next possession and put together another touchdown drive, capped off by another touchdown catch by Dayzell Wilson and a successful two point try to tie the game at 30. Coeur d’Alene answered with a touchdown catch from UW recruit Chase Blakley to close the third quarter with the lead, 37-30.

Coeur d’Alene scored first in the fourth as well; a TD run from Drew Berger and a failed two point try to take the lead 43-30. Down two scores with just ten minutes to play, Bothell seemed hard pressed to post another double digit comeback. But the Cougars responded with 2:39 to play, Damani St. John dove in the end zone after a 12 play drive to cut the lead to six, 43-37. Bothell forced a three and out and on their next offensive play, quarterback Ross Bowers launched a 39 yard pass to the corner of the end zone that was caught by Colton Sather. After the PAT, Bothell tasted their first lead of the game at 44-43 with 1:50 left. Coeur d’Alene still had plenty of time to put together a drive, but Dayzell Wilson forced a fumble on a deep reception and sealed the amazing comeback win for the Cougars.

Top Performers:
Bothell
Ross Bowers – 24-41 274 yds, 4TD, 1INT
Colton Sather – 4 catches 84 yds, 2TD

Coeur d’Alene
Gunnar Amos – 25-41 267 yds, 2TD, 2INT
Chase Blakley – 7 catches 98 yds, 2TD

Blanchet Rolls Over Ballard
By Colin Caruso

The first game of the Emerald City Kickoff Classic hosted the Seattle Prep Panthers and the Roosevelt Roughriders, a 3A-4A matchup. Neither team was able to exert themselves offensively in the first quarter, with neither team attempting a single pass.

Roosevelt, in strictly the Wing-T, was able to move the ball relatively well in the second quarter, but was unable to crack inside the Panther 25 until 6:10 remaining in the second. An inside handoff to Roughrider running back Bereket Anshebo turned into a touchdown after a few nifty moves and a broken tackle, to take the lead 7-0.

A blocked punt by Roosevelt with 3:02 left in the second gave the Roughriders the ball on the Seattle Prep 1 yard line, but two penalties pushed them back to the 18. Roosevelt had to settle for a field goal attempt that was missed right, a huge break for the Panthers, who were down just 7-0 at the half.

The second half spelled equal trouble for the Panthers offense, which couldn’t break through the Roughrider defense to put any points on the board. Roosevelt pitched a full game shutout to send the Panthers to 1-1 in their history at the Kickoff Classic. Coach Nelson for the Roughriders mentioned after the game that Prep came out with a different offense than they had initially expected, but credited his players for making the adjustment and shutting out the Panthers, 7-0.

Top Performers:
Roosevelt
Bereket Anshebo – 22 carries, 150 yards, TD

Blanchet Rolls Over Ballard
By Colin Caruso

In both team’s opener, the Blanchet Braves dominated the Ballard Beavers by a final of 43-0. Blanchet started early and kept the pressure on Ballard for the entire game. The Braves’ first play from scrimmage was a halfback pass that went for 48 yards, followed by a 12 yard touchdown run by senior running back Chamroeun Pen. On the next Braves drive, quarterback Alex Freeman hooked up with senior wide receiver Greg Petschl for a 6 yard touchdown catch. The Braves took an early 14-0 lead, less than 5 minutes into the contest.

Both team’s defenses picked up the pressure for the remainder of the first quarter and the first ten minutes of the second quarter, until Blanchet found themselves on the right side of a few favorable plays. A Blanchet reception on the sideline followed by a clear tackle was missed by the official, and the Braves receiver got up from the tackle and ran for an additional 35 yards on the play. Two plays later, a fumble on the goal line that was picked up by Ballard was overturned and called down by contact. Blanchet running back Oshea Trujillo ran the ball in the next play, to send the score to 20-0 at the half.

Despite being down 20 points going into half, Ballard was competitive and the line of scrimmage battle was equal. Neither team showed great success moving the football, but mistakes by the Beavers put this game out of reach. The opening kickoff of the second half was fumbled by Ballard and returned for a touchdown. The next two offensive plays for the Beavers also resulted in fumbles, one of which again returned for a touchdown, and the other giving Blanchet great field position to capitalize on a field goal. Amazingly, Blanchet had 18 yards of offense in the third quarter, but scored 23 points, to seal the game at 43-0.

Kickoff Classic Preview: Skyline vs. Bellevue
By Colin Caruso

To close the evening, the Emerald City Kickoff Classic brought in the two best teams in Washington, a matchup between the 4A Skyline Spartans and the 3A Bellevue Wolverines.  Bellevue has claimed the 3A state crown in 10 of the last 12 seasons, and hasn’t lost a game since 2010.  Their last loss came to these Skyline Spartans.  Coach Mat Taylor and the Spartans have raised the 4A state trophy in four of the last five seasons, and are looking to avenge their 2011 loss to the Wolverines.  This game is not only for ‘Eastside’ bragging rights, but for state bragging rights, as both of these teams are looking to repeat in 2013.

These series of games will be the second set of games in newly renovated Husky Stadium following the Husky opener last Saturday, Aug 31st, in the Dawg’s rout over Boise State. The Skyline – Bellevue game will kick off at 7pm, Saturday Sept 7th. Tickets are $15 at the door and $10 for seniors and students. Good luck to both of our defending state champions!

The third matchup in the Emerald City Kickoff Classic will be a cross-state contest between the Bothell Cougars and Coeur d’Alene.  Bothell was a state semifinal team in 2009 and a quarterfinal team in 2010.  This is their third trip to the Emerald City Kickoff Classic.  Coeur d’Alene is making their second trip to the Classic, coming off a win two years ago versus Moses Lake.  Coeur d’Alene were the state runner-ups last year in Idaho’s largest classification (5A) and were the state champions in both 2010 and 2011.

These series of games will be the second set of games in newly renovated Husky Stadium following the Husky opener last Saturday, Aug 31st, in the Dawg’s rout over Boise State.

Girls- Lake Stevens spoils home court advantage for Newport,
advances to Regional Round of 16
By Colin Caruso 

To secure the final spot in the 16 team regional tournament, the Lake Stevens Vikings traveled to Newport to play the Newport Knights.  Lake Stevens’ band brought unbelievable noise, playing the likes of Led Zeppelin and Kansas to pump up the crowd for the win.  Unfortunately for Newport, it seemed to do the job and ignited Lake Stevens, whose offense responded early led by senior Brooke Pahukoa.  Pahukoa contributed twelve points and three steals in the first half for the Vikings.

The undersized Vikings did an excellent job of reading passing lanes, accounting for 13 steals in the first half.  Their defense was spacious at times in pursuing the steal, allowing easy layups for junior Casey Schoenlein, who filled the box score in the first half with four points, six rebounds, and five blocks.

The game remained within single digits the entire first half, with Lake Stevens carrying a six point lead into halftime.

Defense was the focal point for both teams coming out of the locker room.  Both teams stifling defense contributed to the lowest scoring quarter of the contest with only 17 total points scored in the third.  Lake Stevens took a seven point lead into the final quarter.

Newport began their comeback midway through the fourth, with back to back threes by Kaitlin Sahlinger and Laura Moretti to cut the Lake Stevens lead to just three with 5:24 remaining.  A layup by Anna Crabtree for the Knights three minutes later cut the lead to one with 2:21 remaining, the closest Newport had been since the second quarter.

But Brooke Pahukoa stepped up again for the Vikings, going 4-4 on free-throws in the final minute to secure a 48-43 win for Lake Stevens.  The Vikings now advance to state and face Davis on Friday in Wenatchee at 8PM.
