- 2:32Speaker 1: And you're seeing a lot of these, you know, in football,
- 2:34Speaker 1: a lot of games on Thursdays and Saturday since they
- 2:37Speaker 1: can't get in all the officials. You know, I have
- 2:39Speaker 1: enough officials on Friday to get to do it. And
- 2:42Speaker 1: but basketball coming up, it's the same type of deal,
- 2:44Speaker 1: So officials are needed. All right, let's talk football now,
- 2:48Speaker 1: and we're going to start off with the game that
- 2:50Speaker 1: was out at Demings. Mount Baker defeated Meridian twenty one
- 2:54Speaker 1: to thirteen in a very very close game. An unusual
- 2:58Speaker 1: game where going into the game not a lot of
- 3:01Speaker 1: people were aware of this and I was not, but
- 3:06Speaker 1: I was alerted probably ten minutes before kickoff. But neither
- 3:10Speaker 1: teams starting quarterback was available for this game, so very
- 3:14Speaker 1: very interesting here. You know, Trey Alexander of Meridian was
- 3:20Speaker 1: injured the week before was not able to finish the game.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Toga Tiglau of Mount Baker was ill, and so the
- 3:27Speaker 1: backups came in, which meant Pierce Brozowski of Meridian, who's
- 3:31Speaker 1: usually all over the field playing some tight end, wide receiver,
- 3:35Speaker 1: even some running back, at times filled in at quarterback,
- 3:39Speaker 1: did quite well fourteen of twenty five through the air
- 3:42Speaker 1: for two hundred and nineteen yards, also led them with
- 3:44Speaker 1: fifty four yards rushing on twenty two carries and had
- 3:47Speaker 1: a touchdown run. And then for Mount Baker, it was
- 3:50Speaker 1: the sophomore Tyson Barksdale under center only you know, went
- 3:55Speaker 1: back to pass eight eight times, completed a couple of
- 3:57Speaker 1: them to jet Ross for fourteen yards by It was
- 4:00Speaker 1: the running attack that helped out Mount Baker here and
- 4:04Speaker 1: helped them get the win. Meridian did jump out to
- 4:06Speaker 1: the early lead when Pierce Brozowski hit Casey Brennan over
- 4:10Speaker 1: the middle on a fourth down play. It was just
- 4:12Speaker 1: a you know, kind of a quick pass over the middle.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Casey Brennan is so fast. You get him in motion
- 4:18Speaker 1: and have him going one way to where he could
- 4:22Speaker 1: just cut a little bit at the snap, and he's
- 4:25Speaker 1: already faster than everybody else. He'd get that extra speed going.
- 4:28Speaker 1: It's a little crazy. He's able to catch the passing
- 4:31Speaker 1: stride and then just run past everybody. Score the fifty
- 4:34Speaker 1: four yard touchdown. Soccer verk on the extra point, and
- 4:37Speaker 1: Meridian's up seven zero after the first quarter. Mount Baker
- 4:40Speaker 1: came back Bryce Cooper with the eighteen yard touchdown run
- 4:44Speaker 1: to tie it up, and at the half it was
- 4:47Speaker 1: twenty one, or I'm sorry it was seven to seven.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Mount Baker's Bryce Cooper scores a couple more touchdowns in
- 4:53Speaker 1: the second half. Brazowski scored his touchdown also in the
- 4:56Speaker 1: second half. Mount Baker wins twenty one to thirteen. The
- 4:59Speaker 1: Mountaineers as a team ran for two hundred and ninety
- 5:01Speaker 1: six yards on forty five carries. That looks like a
- 5:05Speaker 1: Mount Baker box score right there. They also held to
- 5:08Speaker 1: Meridian to just two yards per carry on twenty seven
- 5:11Speaker 1: carries for fifty four yards. They did throw for two
- 5:13Speaker 1: hundred and nineteen yards for Mount Baker. Leading the way
- 5:16Speaker 1: on the ground was Bryce Cooper, who had twenty one
- 5:18Speaker 1: carries for one hundred and seventy two yards and all
- 5:21Speaker 1: three touchdowns, and Camden Moa fifteen carries for one hundred
- 5:24Speaker 1: and twelve yards. So you know, a couple one hundred
- 5:27Speaker 1: yard rushers there that is that is right up Mount
- 5:30Speaker 1: Baker's alley. And when they're doing that, they're really hard
- 5:33Speaker 1: to beat. And yeah, I mean it was a very
- 5:38Speaker 1: very sharp running attack for the Mountaineers. For Meridian, Pierce
- 5:41Speaker 1: Brozowski twenty two carries for fifty four yards. Like I
- 5:43Speaker 1: said earlier, he was also fourteen of twenty five through
- 5:46Speaker 1: the air for two hundred and nineteen yards. Daniel Larson
- 5:49Speaker 1: had a great game the big six foot five senior
- 5:51Speaker 1: tight end, eight catches for one hundred and sixteen yards.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Casey Brennan two catches for fifty four yards and a touchdown.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Trevan Crabtree had a couple of catches. Ethan Valich and
- 6:01Speaker 1: Ryan Winn also had to catch. So Mount Baker, you know,
- 6:06Speaker 1: that's a big, big win because just kind of the
- 6:10Speaker 1: way that things are, they've already beaten Noksack Valley, so
- 6:12Speaker 1: now you get this one over Meridian, you know they're
- 6:15Speaker 1: gonna be heavily favored over Blaine, which basically means the
- 6:19Speaker 1: round of thirty two is right, is basically in their
- 6:22Speaker 1: back pocket unless things go terribly wrong. So Mount Baker
- 6:25Speaker 1: two to zero in conference now it's a huge, huge
- 6:28Speaker 1: deal for them. And you look at them defensively. Kel
- 6:31Speaker 1: Rear in another big game. Six tackles, two tackles for loss,
- 6:35Speaker 1: two passes broken up at the line of scrimmage, he's
- 6:38Speaker 1: already batted down, my goodness, four or five on the year.
- 6:42Speaker 1: What a great season he has had as a defensive end.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Camden moa five and a half tackles and a quarterback
- 6:48Speaker 1: sack as well, So he was in on a lot
- 6:50Speaker 1: of stuff. In Andrew Monteeth four and a half tackles
- 6:53Speaker 1: and a tackle for loss. It's so funny because he
- 6:56Speaker 1: doesn't really come into the game a lot or doesn't
- 6:58Speaker 1: make a ton of tackles, and kind of later in
- 7:00Speaker 1: the game it's like everybody tires out and then he's
- 7:03Speaker 1: the one that making all the stops. So Andrew Monteeth
- 7:06Speaker 1: another big game defensively. When you look at Meridian defensively,
- 7:11Speaker 1: they had a lot of guys that did some good things.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Of course, Savior parent ten and a half tackles, a
- 7:15Speaker 1: pass broken up every single week. He's right up there.
- 7:18Speaker 1: I think he's the only player in Walkin County right
- 7:20Speaker 1: now that is averaging over ten tackles a game, which
- 7:24Speaker 1: is an incredible stat the senior linebacker. He's all over
- 7:27Speaker 1: the place. Other guys had big games. Daniel Larson four
- 7:31Speaker 1: and a half tackles, two tackles for loss him as
- 7:34Speaker 1: a defensive end now is really coming into his own.
- 7:37Speaker 1: It's a brand new position for him and he's really
- 7:41Speaker 1: you know, taking a hold of it and is one
- 7:43Speaker 1: of the best in the conference at it. Jackson fannin Steel,
- 7:46Speaker 1: who I think got his first start of the season.
- 7:50Speaker 1: He had four tackles, a pass broken up, and an interception,
- 7:53Speaker 1: his first in his varsity career, so good for him.
- 7:56Speaker 1: And then Ethan Valich seven tackles, tackling machine as well,
- 8:00Speaker 1: Pierce Brazowski four and a half stops and a tackle
- 8:03Speaker 1: for loss. I thought Sawyer Strunk had a really good game.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Kind of finding that new position on the defensive line
- 8:09Speaker 1: has really worked out for him. Four tackles, one and
- 8:13Speaker 1: a half tackles for loss. He was kind of in
- 8:15Speaker 1: the mix there at linebacker where Parrien was doing some
- 8:18Speaker 1: good things. Plus they had you know, Ethan Valich doing
- 8:22Speaker 1: you know, a lot of stuff too, so they didn't
- 8:24Speaker 1: really he was kind of not the odd man out.
- 8:27Speaker 1: But when you go against so many teams that are spread,
- 8:32Speaker 1: you're only going to play like maybe two linebackers, and
- 8:35Speaker 1: and there were some injuries just some linemen earlier in
- 8:38Speaker 1: the season, so you know, you put him in there
- 8:40Speaker 1: and he's been. I think it's upped his game. I
- 8:42Speaker 1: think Sawyer Strunk is really making his presence known on
- 8:46Speaker 1: the defensive line, so good for him as well. So
- 8:49Speaker 1: that's Mount Baker and Meridian. Mount Baker with the win.
- 8:51Speaker 1: Meridian suffers their first loss of the year, but you
- 8:55Speaker 1: know they're a good team and they were not one
- 8:58Speaker 1: hundred percent healthy. River Todd also out of that game,
- 9:01Speaker 1: So you know, you take out Trey Alexander, their quarterback,
- 9:05Speaker 1: you take out River Todd, you know, the one of
- 9:08Speaker 1: the best route runners in the county. And then and
- 9:12Speaker 1: Casey Brennan probably was not one hundred percent, although he
- 9:15Speaker 1: looked on his touchdown play, but you know, you remove
- 9:19Speaker 1: one of your receivers like that, and then another one
- 9:21Speaker 1: of your receivers goes to play quarterback. So that really,
- 9:24Speaker 1: you know, made it difficult as far as putting enough
- 9:28Speaker 1: guys out there with varsity experience. Luckily, Maridin is loaded
- 9:32Speaker 1: at wide receivers. You still had a Casey Brennan out there.
- 9:34Speaker 1: You still had Daniel Larson, who was a very very
- 9:38Speaker 1: capable tight end. Casey Brennan, although probably not one hundred percent,
- 9:42Speaker 1: played pretty well. Trevin Krabtree played well, and he came back.
- 9:45Speaker 1: He missed some time earlier in the season as well,
- 9:48Speaker 1: so you know, if they hung in there. But Mount
- 9:51Speaker 1: Baker gets the win at home, and for our next game,
- 9:54Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about we're gonna go into the coaches
- 9:56Speaker 1: corner as we head out to Lynnon Christian as the
- 10:00Speaker 1: Links defeated the Seahome Mariners seventeen to six, a little
- 10:04Speaker 1: low scoring affair. Coach would thank you for joining me.
- 10:07Speaker 1: How are you doing. I'm doing great.
- 10:10Speaker 2: The Seattle Mariners just took a one zero lead in
- 10:13Speaker 2: the ALCS, so pretty pumped about that.
- 10:17Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. We're recording this Sunday night, and usually we
- 10:22Speaker 1: do it at seven o'clock, and I think we were
- 10:24Speaker 1: both in agreement that let's hold off until the game's over,
- 10:27Speaker 1: and so pretty excited right now. We're both ride and high.
- 10:31Speaker 1: But let's go back to Friday night. You were out
- 10:34Speaker 1: at Lennon Christian High School and boy Elsie jumped out
- 10:39Speaker 1: to a really early lead. But it was kind of,
- 10:44Speaker 1: you know, a little back and forth, some turnovers back
- 10:46Speaker 1: and forth, a little bit of sloppy play, and it
- 10:49Speaker 1: wasn't really the high scoring affair that everybody thought it might.
- 10:51Speaker 1: It might be.
- 10:54Speaker 2: Well, definitely not a lot of points. But Elsie did
- 10:59Speaker 2: get both their touchdowns in the first quarter, first drive,
- 11:04Speaker 2: I think it was their first two drives. But in
- 11:08Speaker 2: between Seahome had a really strong drive and it looks
- 11:12Speaker 2: like they're going to tie it up, but kind of
- 11:15Speaker 2: bogged down and LS made a good defensive stand inside
- 11:18Speaker 2: the ten yard line, so they were they were turned
- 11:21Speaker 2: away without points there, even though their offense was was
- 11:26Speaker 2: moving the ball, so so that was key. You know,
- 11:30Speaker 2: whenever you turn it turn it over on downs, that's
- 11:34Speaker 2: that's tough and it's good good going the other way
- 11:37Speaker 2: for you know, morale and the defensive stop for for
- 11:41Speaker 2: ELC and they're at home and big crowd, so uh,
- 11:45Speaker 2: they kind of went into halftime up up fourteen nothing uh,
- 11:51Speaker 2: and uh you know kind of went from there.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Yeah, when you're you coached a lot up in the
- 11:56Speaker 1: coaching box and uh with their is there ever moments
- 12:01Speaker 1: when you know you're inside the ten and it's fourth
- 12:05Speaker 1: down and you're just like just kick it, like we
- 12:07Speaker 1: can get points here or do you feel like it
- 12:10Speaker 1: really depends on the situation, the weather, your opponent, all
- 12:13Speaker 1: that stuff.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Really a combination of things. I think you know, that
- 12:19Speaker 2: was usually coach Beeson or coach Plankovich making that call.
- 12:23Speaker 2: I was never you know, I could give my two cents,
- 12:25Speaker 2: but I was never the head guy. So really ultimately
- 12:29Speaker 2: comes down to the head coach. But I think conventional
- 12:32Speaker 2: wisdom in the first half sometimes you want to get
- 12:36Speaker 2: those points on the board, and it depends is it,
- 12:39Speaker 2: you know, fourth and goal from the two or is
- 12:41Speaker 2: it fourth and goal from the eight. You know, so
- 12:44Speaker 2: that down in distance is big. Are you you know,
- 12:48Speaker 2: do you have a good rhythm going, do you have
- 12:50Speaker 2: a play you think this is going to work? All
- 12:54Speaker 2: those things kind of factor into it. Obviously at Lco
- 12:57Speaker 2: was wet, they're on grass. Baine Mitchell did end up missing.
- 13:03Speaker 2: It was a pretty long one. It was thirty something
- 13:05Speaker 2: later in the game. And he's a really good kicker,
- 13:07Speaker 2: but he just doesn't get a lot of practice kicking
- 13:10Speaker 2: on grass. So uh, that definitely factors into it. So
- 13:15Speaker 2: and you know, Seahomes got it. They got a really
- 13:17Speaker 2: good offense and good players, and so you know, I
- 13:21Speaker 2: think going for it, there's a good I think they're
- 13:24Speaker 2: on the five maybe on the fourth down play. So anyway,
- 13:29Speaker 2: it's just you know, it's is what it is. You
- 13:33Speaker 2: score and it's six or seven points and you don't
- 13:35Speaker 2: and no points and you're playing defense.
- 13:38Speaker 1: So yeah, the way it is, it's never the end
- 13:41Speaker 1: of the world to play defense right there at the
- 13:43Speaker 1: five yard line, because something crazy could happen. There could
- 13:46Speaker 1: be a bad snap, you could see a safety, you
- 13:48Speaker 1: could see you know anything. So it's it's you know it.
- 13:51Speaker 1: I guess you can go for it at that point,
- 13:53Speaker 1: and the worst that happens is they get the ball
- 13:56Speaker 1: inside their own five or so. On film, it was
- 13:59Speaker 1: kind of hard to tell. It looked like it was
- 14:01Speaker 1: a little foggy maybe, but you were there at field level.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Was the weather a factor at all? Was it? I
- 14:08Speaker 1: know it rained earlier in the day. Was it raining
- 14:10Speaker 1: during the game? I know also that the else logo
- 14:14Speaker 1: that they had in the middle of the field kind
- 14:16Speaker 1: of had like a Carolina blue in it, and about
- 14:18Speaker 1: two three hours before the game, they took the hose
- 14:21Speaker 1: out there and washed it off because they they did
- 14:24Speaker 1: it actually for the Seahome players because they were wearing
- 14:26Speaker 1: the white jerseys. Didn't want them to just have a
- 14:28Speaker 1: bunch of blue all over their white jerseys. So I
- 14:32Speaker 1: thought maybe the middle of the field would be even
- 14:34Speaker 1: more rain soaked. Did it feel like it was like
- 14:37Speaker 1: the weather was a factor the or how did the
- 14:39Speaker 1: field hold up?
- 14:41Speaker 2: The field held up pretty decently. You know, it did
- 14:44Speaker 2: rain kind of off and on. But both teams were
- 14:49Speaker 2: relatively effective in the passing game. You know, in the
- 14:52Speaker 2: first half, you know, a couple big passing plays. Boyce
- 14:57Speaker 2: Robertson cut a couple you know, touchdowns, and you know
- 15:03Speaker 2: he got it behind the defense on a along third down.
- 15:06Speaker 2: So I think maybe that the footing. I didn't see
- 15:08Speaker 2: any outright like slipping falls from the Sea Home dbs,
- 15:13Speaker 2: but I think just just the footing was a little bit.
- 15:18Speaker 2: You know, again, they're not used to that, not that
- 15:20Speaker 2: it's an excuse, but and then that very first drive
- 15:23Speaker 2: they had some mistackles, so maybe wet uniforms contributed, you know,
- 15:29Speaker 2: But again, you know, both teams are playing on the
- 15:31Speaker 2: same field and same amount of wetness and all that
- 15:35Speaker 2: sort of thing. So that's part of part of the game.
- 15:38Speaker 1: You know. Coming into the game, Sea Home has just
- 15:41Speaker 1: been scoring a ton of points, averaging over fifty a game.
- 15:44Speaker 1: Even in their two losses, they scored thirty three points
- 15:47Speaker 1: in each of those games. So you come into this
- 15:49Speaker 1: one and if you said you're only gonna hold l
- 15:51Speaker 1: S to seventeen and l C is averaging forty something
- 15:55Speaker 1: forty six a game or something, you think your chances
- 15:58Speaker 1: are pretty good. But you know, you know, the turnovers
- 16:03Speaker 1: and the mistakes tell us about just kind of even
- 16:06Speaker 1: if you're a dynamic offense, if you're turning the ball over,
- 16:09Speaker 1: that's a lot to overcome.
- 16:11Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, four interceptions was tough. So credit to
- 16:16Speaker 2: the the LCDBS and theo Quigal wasn't out there, so
- 16:21Speaker 2: that's obviously one of Nolan's top targets. But he's got
- 16:25Speaker 2: other guys and they were making plays, you know, but
- 16:29Speaker 2: they just they drive it down, like I said, the
- 16:31Speaker 2: turnover him downs and then some penalties, some interceptions, so
- 16:37Speaker 2: they just couldn't quite get over the hump on a
- 16:41Speaker 2: lot of their possessions. And then finally at the fourth
- 16:45Speaker 2: quarter they did score, you know, to to get on
- 16:49Speaker 2: the board and got the ball back again. And it
- 16:55Speaker 2: was kind of in between an interception or a fumbles,
- 16:58Speaker 2: kind of hard to tell. Al Miller caught one over
- 17:00Speaker 2: the middle, kind of juggling it or fumbling it. And
- 17:06Speaker 2: ended up and I think Dawson Heines's arms for his
- 17:10Speaker 2: second interception of the game, and that kind of kind
- 17:13Speaker 2: of ice the game. So LC defense credit to them,
- 17:17Speaker 2: and they played pretty well, you know, stopping the run too,
- 17:20Speaker 2: although Sea Home Sea Hoome was running the ball more
- 17:23Speaker 2: and I think that shortened the game too. Both teams
- 17:26Speaker 2: were even though both teams weren't that effective running the ball,
- 17:29Speaker 2: they kept rushing it, you know, to keep the other
- 17:33Speaker 2: defense honest. You know, the Sea Home defense really was
- 17:37Speaker 2: was stout against the run. You know, the whole game.
- 17:41Speaker 2: They had again kind of that it wasn't quite the
- 17:44Speaker 2: TNT look, but they still had kind of the five
- 17:46Speaker 2: to two look going in the front. So their front did
- 17:52Speaker 2: a good job right holding down Chris Coyman and the
- 17:57Speaker 2: rushing offense of LC. But you know, know, to to
- 18:00Speaker 2: their credit, they kept on giving it, giving it the
- 18:04Speaker 2: running game and then uh, you know, keep the defense honest.
- 18:07Speaker 2: So it was just, you know, it was a good, good,
- 18:10Speaker 2: hard fought game between two teams, two good teams.
- 18:14Speaker 1: Yeah, two teams were probably gonna see play Deepen in November,
- 18:18Speaker 1: and uh that's what's fun about, you know, when they
- 18:20Speaker 1: scheduled this game. Of course they played it last year
- 18:22Speaker 1: as well. You know, it's magic to my ears because
- 18:27Speaker 1: too walking county teams playing each other when they don't
- 18:29Speaker 1: have to. I love it when that happens. Uh, And
- 18:33Speaker 1: it's it's really cool because I hopefully the county you know,
- 18:38Speaker 1: got their money's worth out at that game. And even
- 18:41Speaker 1: though the weather was not great, I mean, the radio
- 18:42Speaker 1: was out there for four hours before the game pumping
- 18:45Speaker 1: the game up. Uh, it was a it was a
- 18:48Speaker 1: pretty fun atmosphere. And yeah, I just it's I just
- 18:54Speaker 1: loved it. I mean, I there's something about, you know,
- 18:57Speaker 1: all these teams and when they get to play each
- 18:59Speaker 1: other and when it's too teams that don't play each
- 19:00Speaker 1: other very often. I just I just think it's a
- 19:02Speaker 1: lot of fun of coach. Of course, Coach Turpester with
- 19:05Speaker 1: ties to Sea Home makes that a little bit fun
- 19:08Speaker 1: as well. So thanks a lot, Coach for joining me
- 19:11Speaker 1: on the Coach's corner. And I'll talk to you next week.
- 19:14Speaker 2: All right, thanks Tyler, And.
- 19:15Speaker 1: Now we'll jump into west Coat three a North play
- 19:18Speaker 1: as Ferndale hosted unbeat Her or Not Unbeaten snomash Stonmash,
- 19:24Speaker 1: who hadn't won a game yet, although the Panthers looked very,
- 19:26Speaker 1: very good in this one, jumping out to a seven
- 19:28Speaker 1: zero lead early holding on to it throughout until halftime.
- 19:33Speaker 1: I was getting messages from some Ferndale parents saying Snomish
- 19:36Speaker 1: does not look like an zero to five team. And
- 19:40Speaker 1: Ferndale had some good things happened, they you know, just
- 19:44Speaker 1: couldn't finish drives and there were some penalties and different
- 19:47Speaker 1: things like that. But in the second half it started
- 19:50Speaker 1: off with Snowhomish going down and scoring on a fifteen
- 19:53Speaker 1: yard touchdown pass. The Panthers were up fourteen to nothing
- 19:56Speaker 1: with like three and a half to go in the
- 19:57Speaker 1: third quarter. It was really not looking for Ferndale, who
- 20:01Speaker 1: who then in turn put together a really strong drive,
- 20:04Speaker 1: doing some things through the air which was kind of unusual,
- 20:08Speaker 1: and then Nolan Boliak hit Cooper Vincent on a twenty
- 20:12Speaker 1: four yard touchdown pass. Those two have been able to
- 20:15Speaker 1: connect on some deep passes this year. It's been really
- 20:18Speaker 1: really efficient for them. A couple of seniors. Parker McManus
- 20:22Speaker 1: kicks the extra point and then Ferndale just down at
- 20:25Speaker 1: that point fourteen to seven, and then late in the
- 20:30Speaker 1: game and they they're putting together another strong drive. And
- 20:33Speaker 1: I'm excited to talk to coach Plankovich this week and
- 20:36Speaker 1: we're going to have him in the Gatorade Game Day
- 20:39Speaker 1: preview that'll be coming out Friday morning, and I definitely
- 20:42Speaker 1: want to ask him about at what point were they
- 20:45Speaker 1: thinking about the two point conversion, because I tell you what,
- 20:48Speaker 1: you know, you're it's you know, you're getting less than
- 20:50Speaker 1: three minutes left in the game, you're still down by
- 20:53Speaker 1: by seven. They score the touchdown Elliott Lnson on a
- 20:56Speaker 1: thirty four yard touchdown run on a counter tray, and
- 21:00Speaker 1: then they decided to go for two right away. I mean,
- 21:03Speaker 1: you saw the finger the numbers two go up right away,
- 21:06Speaker 1: So they had decided at that point that they were
- 21:08Speaker 1: going to we're going to go for it. Then I'm
- 21:10Speaker 1: curious about did they know what play it was going
- 21:13Speaker 1: to be right away? Because they there was a time
- 21:15Speaker 1: out called. I do not recall who called it. If
- 21:17Speaker 1: it was the offense of the defense, I'm assuming it
- 21:20Speaker 1: was probably Snowhomish because you know, they're like, oh, they're
- 21:24Speaker 1: going for two, we better call time out. After seeing
- 21:26Speaker 1: what formation they were in, Ferndale sprints back out their
- 21:30Speaker 1: lines up throws the jump ball up to Chance Hatchet
- 21:33Speaker 1: who's got four guys on him, but he goes up
- 21:35Speaker 1: and gets the ball and secures basically the win right there.
- 21:41Speaker 1: And then moments later, as now how much is driving,
- 21:45Speaker 1: Chance Hatchet makes the big tackle on fourth down, which
- 21:50Speaker 1: right there ended the game, gave the ball back to Ferndale.
- 21:53Speaker 1: So huge game for the sophomore. There just a tremendous
- 21:58Speaker 1: overall game and on both sides of the ball. Ferndale
- 22:02Speaker 1: Golden Eagles ran for two hundred and three yards on
- 22:05Speaker 1: thirty six carries, very efficient through the air. Seven of
- 22:08Speaker 1: nine for sixty seven yards was Nolan Bolliac. Elliot Lentzon
- 22:11Speaker 1: twenty two carries for one hundred and forty nine yards
- 22:14Speaker 1: and a touchdown. John Stannick ten carries for forty six
- 22:17Speaker 1: hard earned yards. Love watching the way he just runs
- 22:20Speaker 1: north and south. Chance Hatchet two catches for thirty yards.
- 22:24Speaker 1: It does not include the two point conversion at the end.
- 22:29Speaker 1: Here's another thing too, with Bolliac seven completions that went
- 22:33Speaker 1: to six different receivers. What was the last time Ferndale
- 22:36Speaker 1: had a game where six different players caught a pass.
- 22:39Speaker 1: I don't recall that happening. Ever, it's very possible it
- 22:42Speaker 1: could have happened. But that's a really really cool deal too.
- 22:47Speaker 1: You know, he had catches from Chance Hatchet, Cooper Vincent
- 22:50Speaker 1: of course had the twenty four yard touchdown reception, Johnny
- 22:53Speaker 1: Mahaffey had a seven yard catch, Rter Bevin a six
- 22:55Speaker 1: yard catch. Fenton Vassik and John Stanick each had a
- 22:58Speaker 1: reception as well, So you know, it might not have
- 23:02Speaker 1: been pretty, but it's a win, and it's a conference win.
- 23:05Speaker 1: Ferndale needed one desperately and big, big win for them.
- 23:10Speaker 1: That's their third conference win of the season and their
- 23:13Speaker 1: their conference for the North. Anyways, their conference season ends
- 23:17Speaker 1: pretty quickly. They only have one more conference game actually,
- 23:20Speaker 1: and that'll be in a couple of weeks against Side
- 23:24Speaker 1: Wooley as they're gonna, you know, take on quite a
- 23:27Speaker 1: hefty opponent this upcoming week and they all talk about
- 23:30Speaker 1: that on the Gatorade game day preview. But Ferndial golden.
- 23:34Speaker 1: And then on defense, Elliott Lenson's eight and a half
- 23:36Speaker 1: tackles from a strong safety spot. So there's a kid
- 23:40Speaker 1: that is, you know, carrying the ball twenty two times
- 23:44Speaker 1: and then leading the team in tackles. He's also returning kicks,
- 23:46Speaker 1: returning funts, doing everything it takes to get his team
- 23:50Speaker 1: to win. And that's a you know, that is one
- 23:54Speaker 1: awesome young man. I'll tell you that Chance Hatchet five
- 23:57Speaker 1: tackles the tackle for loss, big big play on that
- 24:01Speaker 1: fourth down, huge play from the linebacker spot. And then
- 24:05Speaker 1: it just a lot of other guys doing doing some
- 24:08Speaker 1: you know, some good things at the line of scrimmage
- 24:11Speaker 1: there on that Ferndale defense, and they did enough. Braden
- 24:14Speaker 1: he Braden Hendrickson with the fumble recovery was huge. You know,
- 24:19Speaker 1: guys making plays and that's that's what was big for
- 24:22Speaker 1: the Ferndal Goldenigals. So congratulations to Ferndale picking up the
- 24:25Speaker 1: fifteen to fourteen win over Snowhomish. Get back in the
- 24:30Speaker 1: win call him there and then West Co three A North.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Next up, we're gonna go out to Lyndon where the
- 24:36Speaker 1: Lions defeated Squalakum twenty seven to seventeen. But my goodness,
- 24:41Speaker 1: early on it did not look good for the Lions
- 24:44Speaker 1: as I think. I think it was like the second
- 24:48Speaker 1: play from scrimmage, Lucas Logi goes back to pass is
- 24:52Speaker 1: intercepted by Anson Osby Ornson, who that's his fifth on
- 24:55Speaker 1: the year, which leads walkin county. He returns all the
- 24:58Speaker 1: way to the two yard line where Lolgy pushed him out.
- 25:01Speaker 1: Very next play, little brother Asher Osby Ornson runs it
- 25:04Speaker 1: in for two yards and Squall come's up seven to zero,
- 25:08Speaker 1: very very early. Next drive, Lennon gets the ball back,
- 25:11Speaker 1: they're forced punt and they go back to punt. It's
- 25:13Speaker 1: blocked by Asher Osby Urnson, who then scoops it up
- 25:16Speaker 1: and goes thirty six yards for the touchdown. Squally comes
- 25:20Speaker 1: up fourteen to zero. So this is at this point
- 25:23Speaker 1: Squalakum had ran one offensive play and they were up
- 25:27Speaker 1: fourteen to zero, and it was not looking good for Lindon.
- 25:30Speaker 1: But then right away, I mean it was thirty seconds
- 25:32Speaker 1: a game time later, Dawson Van Dalen springs a forty
- 25:36Speaker 1: eight yard touchdown run, which was I thought was a
- 25:38Speaker 1: huge play because it it didn't it stopped the momentum.
- 25:43Speaker 1: They were still down after that, but it was quick
- 25:46Speaker 1: enough after that second touchdown that it kind of halted
- 25:49Speaker 1: any big drive that Squalakum had in them, Like if
- 25:52Speaker 1: they would have stopped him for a three and out there.
- 25:55Speaker 1: I really believe that Squalkum could have gone down and
- 25:57Speaker 1: used you know, and played good offense enough to got
- 26:01Speaker 1: down and at least kick a field goal or do
- 26:03Speaker 1: or do something right away, because that momentum was just
- 26:06Speaker 1: was just mounting up. But when Dawson Van Dalen broke
- 26:09Speaker 1: that forty eight yard touchdown run, it did a couple
- 26:11Speaker 1: of things. Of course, it stocked that momentum, but it
- 26:14Speaker 1: also showed that hey, even though he started the season
- 26:16Speaker 1: as a backup, and he's not Max assinc but who
- 26:19Speaker 1: in this county is, he is still a very good back.
- 26:23Speaker 1: And I tell you what, He's strong, he's fast, and
- 26:26Speaker 1: he's a guy that they can rely on this season
- 26:29Speaker 1: and I'm pretty excited about his future as well. So
- 26:33Speaker 1: impressive touchdown run there. Swalkum does come back and kick
- 26:37Speaker 1: a field goal later on twenty three yarder by Elias Larnega. Oh,
- 26:43Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Lara Naga. I'm gonna get it right, Lara Naga.
- 26:46Speaker 1: It is Lara Naga for sure. But what was what
- 26:50Speaker 1: was big about that? It was all it was his
- 26:51Speaker 1: fourth field goal of the year, and so Lara Daga
- 26:55Speaker 1: really having a strong, strong season to this point. And
- 27:00Speaker 1: but Linden gets they're able to score right before the half,
- 27:03Speaker 1: which was a huge deal. Malachai Canan kicks a thirty
- 27:06Speaker 1: nine yard field goal and the second half was all
- 27:09Speaker 1: Linden and it was all Malachai Canan scoring wise. He
- 27:13Speaker 1: scores two touchdowns, kicks two more extra points and kicks
- 27:15Speaker 1: another field goal. He also intercepts a pass. I mean
- 27:18Speaker 1: it was the half of Malachai Canan and the weather
- 27:23Speaker 1: may have played a factor in this. They also could
- 27:25Speaker 1: have been that Linnen was now that they're without Danny
- 27:28Speaker 1: Boeller on the outside there also they were without Sam Orangos,
- 27:32Speaker 1: so Linden did not really attempt too many passes. They
- 27:35Speaker 1: went heavily in the ground game. They ran for three
- 27:38Speaker 1: hundred and sixty four yards. Dawson van Dalen eighteen carries
- 27:42Speaker 1: for one hundred and sixty two yards and a major
- 27:44Speaker 1: breakout performance for him. Lucas Lolgi We've been talking all
- 27:47Speaker 1: year about his speed, his running ability. He hadn't really
- 27:51Speaker 1: had to show it too much. He put it on
- 27:53Speaker 1: display on Friday ran seventeen times for one hundred and
- 27:56Speaker 1: seven yards, and then Malachai Canan eight carries for eighty
- 27:59Speaker 1: five five yards and a couple of touchdowns. That was
- 28:02Speaker 1: his best game as a running back at the varsity
- 28:05Speaker 1: level as well. So you know, to have three guys
- 28:09Speaker 1: with eighty five rushing yards or more, that's pretty impressive.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Lalgi did, like I said, only at ten to ten passes,
- 28:16Speaker 1: completed three of them, two of them to Brody Price,
- 28:18Speaker 1: won to Gordy Bedlington for Squalkum. You know, rushing the
- 28:22Speaker 1: ball was tough, It's always tough against Lyndon. Asher Osby
- 28:25Speaker 1: Ornson had thirty seven yards on ten carries and then
- 28:28Speaker 1: Cole Burke through the air it was nine of seventeen
- 28:31Speaker 1: for one hundred and twenty three yards. Anson Osbyjornson three
- 28:34Speaker 1: catches for thirty eight yards, Jacob Clark two catches for
- 28:37Speaker 1: forty six yards, Kalil Benta had two receptions for thirty
- 28:40Speaker 1: one yards, and then Brock Scammel and Asher osbyorns And
- 28:43Speaker 1: the two sophomores each had a reception as well. So
- 28:48Speaker 1: very strong performance by Lindon. They had to come back
- 28:50Speaker 1: and to do it, and to do it at home
- 28:53Speaker 1: against the very inspired Squalicam team coming off that win
- 28:56Speaker 1: against Annacordis. Defensive wise, Malachaiki and had a heck of
- 29:00Speaker 1: a game. Ten and a half tackles, three tackles for
- 29:03Speaker 1: loss and the interception. I thought Zay Harris had a
- 29:06Speaker 1: tremendous game two on the defensive line, just two and
- 29:09Speaker 1: a half tackles, but they were all behind the line
- 29:11Speaker 1: of scrimmage, two of them for tackles for loss, the
- 29:14Speaker 1: other half was a quarterback sack. And then Brody Price
- 29:18Speaker 1: five and a half tackles, one tackle for loss. Just
- 29:21Speaker 1: every week in and week out, what he does from
- 29:25Speaker 1: that safety position is always He's always one of the best.
- 29:28Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's staring right at another All Conference
- 29:30Speaker 1: first team or a selection, and very very good for him.
- 29:35Speaker 1: Landon Tolzma had an interception late which helped Linden as well.
- 29:39Speaker 1: Squalk hm Asher Osby Ornson on defense, my goodness, eleven tackles,
- 29:44Speaker 1: two tackles for loss. He also had that block kick
- 29:47Speaker 1: that he returned for a touchdown. I thought Zach Watt
- 29:49Speaker 1: had an awesome game coming up in that safety spot,
- 29:52Speaker 1: coming up to play the run, understanding that Linnon was
- 29:55Speaker 1: running very heavily more than usual in this game. He
- 29:59Speaker 1: ended up with ten tackles, one and a half tackles
- 30:01Speaker 1: for loss and a pass broken up, and then Avery
- 30:05Speaker 1: Wiener had a pretty good game as hit from his
- 30:07Speaker 1: linebacker spot with six and a half tackles as well, So,
- 30:11Speaker 1: you know, very very impressive by the Storm. It just
- 30:14Speaker 1: wasn't enough. Did a lot, did everything that you could
- 30:17Speaker 1: have asked for in the first five minutes of the game.
- 30:20Speaker 1: But I really believe that long touchdown run by Dawson
- 30:23Speaker 1: Van Dalen uh kind of tilted it a little bit
- 30:27Speaker 1: back to normal, and I want to I want to
- 30:28Speaker 1: say tilted it towards Lyndon uh for to give them
- 30:32Speaker 1: the edge, but it kind of it kind of relieved
- 30:34Speaker 1: the craziness that was going on early and then they
- 30:37Speaker 1: were gonna be able to get on track after that. Yeah,
- 30:41Speaker 1: so very good game by Lindon and Squalkum. Linden picks
- 30:45Speaker 1: up the win and they jump out to five and
- 30:49Speaker 1: one on the season. Squalkum now three and three, so
- 30:53Speaker 1: very good job by both teams. Really good game. Love
- 30:56Speaker 1: seeing that as well. I'm going to jump back to
- 30:59Speaker 1: the one a now where Nuzack Valley won on the
- 31:02Speaker 1: road at Blaine. I'm loving these games. When it's Walkin
- 31:05Speaker 1: County versus Walkin County, it's just you know, because I
- 31:08Speaker 1: can look at it and see it in a specific
- 31:10Speaker 1: way to where it's it makes sense to me because
- 31:12Speaker 1: I know every kid on the field and that just
- 31:16Speaker 1: you know, it makes me feel like I actually know
- 31:19Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. So it's a lot of fun there.
- 31:23Speaker 1: Nukzack Valley. I mean, it was all Pioneers early on,
- 31:26Speaker 1: thirty three to nothing at the half. Blaine goes off
- 31:29Speaker 1: for a couple of touchdowns and they get a safety
- 31:31Speaker 1: in the third quarter alone, Nuxack Valley doing some more
- 31:34Speaker 1: damage later in the fourth quarter before Blaine scores another
- 31:37Speaker 1: touchdown at the end of the game. So a lot
- 31:40Speaker 1: of scoring. Nuzack Valley wins fifty two to twenty two.
- 31:44Speaker 1: They were pretty even. I mean, Nuzack Valley did run
- 31:47Speaker 1: for over one hundred yards, but they didn't hand it
- 31:50Speaker 1: off a ton. They went to the air quite a bit.
- 31:54Speaker 1: Evan Brown was eighteen of twenty seven for two hundred
- 31:57Speaker 1: and fifty yards, another efficient game for him and four touchdowns, So,
- 32:03Speaker 1: you know, just another one of those games where did
- 32:07Speaker 1: a lot did it well and he's having a quietly
- 32:11Speaker 1: he's kind of having in one of those, you know,
- 32:14Speaker 1: very extremely strong seasons. Especially numbers wise that the Knuksack
- 32:18Speaker 1: Valley quarterbacks have a tendency to do. But he's very
- 32:22Speaker 1: very accurate, knows exactly where he's going to go with
- 32:24Speaker 1: the ball. And another big game with the two hundred
- 32:27Speaker 1: and fifty yards and four touchdowns. Believe it or not,
- 32:29Speaker 1: he did not start the game at quarterback. Ty Barron's
- 32:32Speaker 1: was that quarterback for the first drive. They did have
- 32:35Speaker 1: to punt. Brown did come out to punt for that,
- 32:38Speaker 1: So not quite sure what was going on there, but
- 32:41Speaker 1: and it's not my business. I don't think he was injured.
- 32:44Speaker 1: It might have been a disciplinary thing you don't get
- 32:46Speaker 1: to play the first drive or whatever it was. But
- 32:49Speaker 1: Ty Barrons did get the start at quarterback. I know
- 32:51Speaker 1: they really like him in his future the six or
- 32:54Speaker 1: four sophomore. That looks pretty good. So the Baron's finished
- 32:58Speaker 1: the game there at the end, and so he was
- 33:00Speaker 1: one of four for four yards running the ball. Trevin
- 33:03Speaker 1: skeensterra seven carries for seventy three yards and a touchdown,
- 33:07Speaker 1: the touchdown coming on a hook and ladder that came
- 33:09Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. Interesting call play there where I
- 33:13Speaker 1: mean people listening probably all know what a hook on
- 33:15Speaker 1: later is but if you don't, it's a play where
- 33:18Speaker 1: you throw a quick pass to the outside. You're you
- 33:21Speaker 1: make sure a sure handed guy catches it and then
- 33:24Speaker 1: he and then he pitches it right away to a
- 33:26Speaker 1: guy streaking. And what happened on that play is they
- 33:30Speaker 1: it was you know, Brown threw a pass directly to
- 33:33Speaker 1: Cole Coppinger, who caught it and then right away pitched
- 33:36Speaker 1: it to Trevin Skeenstra who took off and he scored
- 33:40Speaker 1: sixty two yard play from there. So so that's where
- 33:44Speaker 1: Skeenster got a big chunk of his rushing yards. It
- 33:47Speaker 1: does count as a carry once that pitch happens. Trey
- 33:51Speaker 1: hugh tink eight carries for fifty seven yards and two touchdowns.
- 33:54Speaker 1: You know those two running backs, you know, they're both sophomores,
- 33:57Speaker 1: kind of taken over from Matthew Blake who had a
- 33:59Speaker 1: nasty injury last week and believe he's out for the year.
- 34:02Speaker 1: They're going to have to rely on these two sophomores,
- 34:04Speaker 1: and it is a They're very different players. Neither of
- 34:08Speaker 1: them have the speed and the and the agility maybe
- 34:11Speaker 1: that Matthew Blake does. Trey Hughton is a very very
- 34:14Speaker 1: strong runner, can go through you and enjoys contact, invites it.
- 34:22Speaker 1: And Trevin Skeenstra is just you know, it's a kid
- 34:24Speaker 1: that does not look like a running back. He's at six',
- 34:28Speaker 1: four probably one hundred and eighty, pounds and but can
- 34:33Speaker 1: just it's just a great. Athlete you get him out
- 34:35Speaker 1: in space and you just watch him run and he
- 34:37Speaker 1: can really pick him up and put him. Down so
- 34:40Speaker 1: two very different types of running, backs but they're gonna
- 34:43Speaker 1: looks like they're gonna be kind of fifty to fifty
- 34:45Speaker 1: throughout the rest of the year as far as you
- 34:47Speaker 1: know who's going to get the carries through the. Air
- 34:50Speaker 1: LIKE i, Said brown was eighteen of twenty seven for
- 34:52Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty. Yards Cole koppinger nine catches for
- 34:55Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty yards and two. Touchdowns what a
- 34:58Speaker 1: game for. Him Jackson head four catches for sixty one.
- 35:02Speaker 1: Yards he also had a touchdown and he caught a
- 35:04Speaker 1: two point. Conversion Dylan reimer And Tyler martin each had
- 35:07Speaker 1: a couple of. Catches Max lautenbach had his first varsity
- 35:11Speaker 1: touched down on a thirty two yard, Reception and, YEAH
- 35:15Speaker 1: i mean it was you, know a lot of guys
- 35:17Speaker 1: getting involved for The. Pioneers The blaine, offense you, know
- 35:21Speaker 1: running the ball again was it was a little bit.
- 35:23Speaker 1: Tough they had some moments here and. There they were
- 35:26Speaker 1: able to Get Sayu kanaji back mostly as a lead
- 35:29Speaker 1: blocker there just at some added strength. There Connor brown
- 35:33Speaker 1: had thirty four yards rushing the quarter of the sophomore
- 35:36Speaker 1: quarterback and some of that was just, HIM i don't
- 35:40Speaker 1: want to say running for his, life but a lot
- 35:42Speaker 1: of it. Was sometimes there was just it was not
- 35:45Speaker 1: a design. Play but he's so elusive and athletic and
- 35:48Speaker 1: slippery that he can get out and do some good. Things.
- 35:51Speaker 1: Toy he made some throws on the throwing on the
- 35:53Speaker 1: run That i've never seen a sophomore make and that
- 35:56Speaker 1: was a lot of fun to see. Too Kay kerwin
- 35:58Speaker 1: had ten car or ten yards on four carries as.
- 36:01Speaker 1: Well sometimes he goes back and plays some tail, back
- 36:04Speaker 1: usually lines up at wide receiver and, Yeah Connor brown
- 36:09Speaker 1: thirteen of thirty through the air for one hundred and
- 36:11Speaker 1: seventy four. Yards he also threw three, touchdowns so congratulates
- 36:15Speaker 1: to him on. That Kay kerwin on a double pass
- 36:17Speaker 1: completed a fifty yard pass To Isaac bauma older Brother Peyton.
- 36:22Speaker 1: Bama six catches for seventy nine yards and two. Touchdowns
- 36:24Speaker 1: he also kicked two extra. Points Hunter candanosa three catches
- 36:28Speaker 1: for forty nine. Yards Kay kerwin three catches for thirty seven.
- 36:32Speaker 1: Yards So blaine did some really good, things especially in
- 36:35Speaker 1: the second. Half they are, IMPROVING i believe it or,
- 36:39Speaker 1: not they really. Are they're gonna play At Freddy harbor this.
- 36:42Speaker 1: WEEK i think they're gonna get the. WIN i think
- 36:44Speaker 1: things are going in the right direction for, them and
- 36:48Speaker 1: they're just believing play play by play that they're gonna
- 36:51Speaker 1: that they're getting. Better AND i really do think they.
- 36:53Speaker 1: Are Nick Zact valley picking up the win their first
- 36:56Speaker 1: win in a. While they had a three game losing
- 37:00Speaker 1: going there against three against three teams that are probably
- 37:04Speaker 1: gonna be in the state. Playoffs so there's no shame in.
- 37:06Speaker 1: That looks Like valley scheduling pretty tough, there but that's
- 37:10Speaker 1: what they. Do, so, uh you look at the, thing
- 37:12Speaker 1: you look at the stats on. Defense Jackson Hester uh
- 37:17Speaker 1: weekend and week out just does so much on. Defense seven,
- 37:20Speaker 1: tackles two tackles for, loss half a. Sack he also
- 37:23Speaker 1: blocked that, punt which he returned in for a. Touchdown
- 37:27Speaker 1: Caleb VISSER i thought had a really really good game
- 37:30Speaker 1: and he's a kid THAT i want to talk To
- 37:31Speaker 1: Coach bartell about when we have the The Gatoray game
- 37:35Speaker 1: day preview because you, KNOW i talk about it all
- 37:39Speaker 1: the time where when seniors get their chance to make you,
- 37:42Speaker 1: know to get a lot of playing, time there's certain
- 37:45Speaker 1: kids that just make the most of. It and this
- 37:48Speaker 1: Year Kayleb visser is really one of those. Guys outside
- 37:50Speaker 1: linebacker six, three two hundred, pounds looks the. Part four
- 37:54Speaker 1: and a half, tackles half a tackle for, loss a quarterback,
- 37:57Speaker 1: sack two passes knocked, down recovered a, fumble and he
- 38:00Speaker 1: intercepted a. PASS i mean that is that is getting
- 38:03Speaker 1: the job. Done did a lot of really good. Things,
- 38:06Speaker 1: Yeah Andrew, dugger he had another big. Game nine, tackles
- 38:10Speaker 1: two tackles for, loss and half a. Sack that was
- 38:13Speaker 1: good to. See Max lattenbach five, tackles a tackle for,
- 38:16Speaker 1: loss a fumble record or not a pune, recover but
- 38:19Speaker 1: he he recovered the on side kick that started the.
- 38:22Speaker 1: Game Brian, lairley you know started the year as a
- 38:26Speaker 1: linebacker as a backup, linebacker and there was a week
- 38:31Speaker 1: When Andrew dugger was not feeling. Well he had to
- 38:34Speaker 1: play a lot of linebacker in that. Game but now
- 38:36Speaker 1: With Dane, akerman now he's been playing a lot of defensive.
- 38:39Speaker 1: End so he makes four, tackles gets two quarterback. Sacks
- 38:42Speaker 1: that was really good to. See Gab Gabe snyder's five
- 38:46Speaker 1: tackles and a, sack very very strong in the defensive tackle.
- 38:50Speaker 1: Spot And Braxton chaconi two and a half, tackles a
- 38:54Speaker 1: tackle for loss and a quarterback, sack a big senior defensive,
- 38:57Speaker 1: tackle probably having his best game as well in this young.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Season on The blaine. Side Peyton, bauma, man it just
- 39:04Speaker 1: continues to wreak havoc as that outside linebacker spot did
- 39:08Speaker 1: so many good things eight, tackles three and a half
- 39:11Speaker 1: tackles for, loss a quarterback, sack and a fumble. Recovery
- 39:14Speaker 1: he was all over the. Field that kid is. Relentless
- 39:17Speaker 1: it's so fun to See Axel shelton eight and a half,
- 39:20Speaker 1: tackles one tackle for loss and a quarterback. Sack again
- 39:25Speaker 1: week in and week, out he does a lot of
- 39:27Speaker 1: good things. Playing you know that middle linebacker spot and
- 39:32Speaker 1: he's always getting a ton of tackles AND i believe
- 39:36Speaker 1: he leads the county overall in tackles right. Now and
- 39:39Speaker 1: he had another eight and a half in this. Game
- 39:41Speaker 1: So blaine falls to one and, Five Nixzack valley climbs
- 39:46Speaker 1: to three and, three And Knickzack valley will remain in
- 39:49Speaker 1: conference play next week And blaine will slip out for
- 39:53Speaker 1: a week and go play At Friday. Harbor so that
- 39:56Speaker 1: was that. One we have one more game to talk about,
- 39:59Speaker 1: here and that was Bell him playing at home Against Burlington.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Edison AND i tell you, what The tigers just they just,
- 40:08Speaker 1: man they played. Great they took advantage of some mistakes
- 40:12Speaker 1: That bellingham, had especially in the second. Half But, Brillington
- 40:16Speaker 1: Brillington edison looked extremely, strong running the ball for nearly
- 40:20Speaker 1: two hundred yards and they look like a machine out.
- 40:23Speaker 1: There they were up twenty to nothing at the, half
- 40:26Speaker 1: but then they scored twenty one in the second. Half
- 40:29Speaker 1: they do it by returning the second half kickoff for a.
- 40:31Speaker 1: Touchdown there was also a play on a punt where
- 40:34Speaker 1: it was a snap that was a little. Low punter
- 40:37Speaker 1: picks it up and looks like he's trying to make a,
- 40:42Speaker 1: pass but as he gets, hit he gets spun around
- 40:44Speaker 1: to the pass goes completely backwards and as the ball
- 40:47Speaker 1: you think it's going to roll out of the end
- 40:49Speaker 1: zone for, safety which is not the end of the,
- 40:50Speaker 1: world but it stops rolling about a yard from the
- 40:53Speaker 1: back of the end zone and then A Burlington edison
- 40:56Speaker 1: player falls right on directly on top of it scores
- 40:59Speaker 1: a touchdown. There they get another touchdown at the end
- 41:01Speaker 1: of the third quarter which started the generated the continuous clock,
- 41:07Speaker 1: there and, yeah it was just Not bellingham's. Night they
- 41:11Speaker 1: do score touchdown. Late Ben leonard Hits Owen hanstead on
- 41:15Speaker 1: a fourteen yard touchdown pass on a great wheel route
- 41:18Speaker 1: and a diving catch by the five to eight, Senior but,
- 41:22Speaker 1: yeah it was All, burlington you. Know hanstead led the
- 41:26Speaker 1: way on the ground nine carries for thirty three, Yards
- 41:30Speaker 1: Ben leonard eighteen of thirty nine through the air for
- 41:32Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty seven yards and the. Touchdown calvin Van,
- 41:36Speaker 1: hoffwagen who probably had the best overall, game had five
- 41:39Speaker 1: catches for forty eight, Yards Joe harvard four catches for fifty.
- 41:43Speaker 1: Yards Owen hanst had four catches for twenty eight. Yards
- 41:46Speaker 1: Zach gerzl had three, catches Mile wright had two, Catches
- 41:50Speaker 1: so a lot of different guys getting. Involved no surprise.
- 41:52Speaker 1: There bellingham tends to be able to get a lot
- 41:55Speaker 1: of different players involved on the defensive side of the.
- 41:58Speaker 1: Ball LIKE i, Said calvin Van hoffway and probably the
- 42:00Speaker 1: best overall. Game he had six tackles and a tackle
- 42:03Speaker 1: for loss where he forced a fumble was recovered By
- 42:05Speaker 1: Sonny powell who had he himself had four tackles in
- 42:09Speaker 1: a pass broken. Up and then a couple of seniors
- 42:12Speaker 1: in the middle THERE i thought had a pretty good.
- 42:14Speaker 1: Game Caden hamidian had eight tackles to lead the, team
- 42:17Speaker 1: And Aiden, pohlar the the senior, safety had seven. Tackles
- 42:21Speaker 1: so those, guys, again it's about with seniors making the
- 42:26Speaker 1: most of their, opportunity and those two guys have been
- 42:28Speaker 1: doing it this. Year aiden's been starting at safety since day.
- 42:31Speaker 1: One Cayden jamidians has gotten His he has worked himself
- 42:35Speaker 1: into the rotation now starting as a. Linebacker so kudos
