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.
