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.
