• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I hope he understands what I'm trying to do. Yeah,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: and he did, and he recorded it and it was great.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Eighty nine years old, but yeah, start.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's just I mean that right there is absolutely incredible.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: And you know it's I mean, I expected, I just
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: expected somebody walk home County related, you know what I mean, Like,
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: I did not expect, of all people to pop up
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: in my inbox, Jim Mora and here. I I mean,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: as soon as I saw his face, I just started laughing,
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: and I just went, You've got to be kidding me.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: This is too good.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: But and what's crazy is he was I was a
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: huge fan of his as a kid because back in
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: the day, you know, the Seahawks were in the AFC.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I was like, you know, I was like.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Eight or nine years old, and I was really into
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: football at the time, and in the NFL, I should say,
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: and I and I wanted to have an NFC team too,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: and I latched onto the Saints, probably because at that
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: point they'd never won a playoff game, or maybe he
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: had never even been to the playoffs playoffs, and and
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, in nineteen eighty seven, the Saints
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: were like twelve and four and Jim More was the coach,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: and their four linebackers were all amazing, you know, Sam
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Mills and Von Sam Mills and Von Johnson in the middle,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Pat Swelling and.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Ricky Jackson the outside, Sam Mills all like five foot
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: eight of him.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Morton Anderson best kicker of all time.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: I just loved that team and Ruben Mays and Dalton
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Hilliard in the backfield.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: I just there was something about that team that I loved.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: And he was the head coach and and I think
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: he was the head coach in the USFL, and that's
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: where they got him from. And that's why Sam Mills
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: like made it on the Saints because he brought Sam
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Mills over from the USFL and now he's in the
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: NFL Hall of Fame. So so yeah, I always was
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: a huge Jim morri fan, And you know, that's just
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: just funny how it all turned out.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Tyler, he was the head coach at Occidental College down
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: in California in nineteen sixty four to nineteen sixty six.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: He was the University of Washington defensive coordinator from seventy
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: five to seventy seven, the Seahawks defensive line coach seventy
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: eight to eighty one, and then he went to become
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: the head coach. Well, he was a defensive line coach
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: in New England for a year, then the head coach
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: of the Philadelphia Baltimore Stars from eighty three to eighty five,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: and then yeah, the head coach of the Saints and
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts. And I mean,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: it's just so.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: Think about that.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: He coached in college as a head coach in college
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: before the Super Bowl.
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: Was even a thing.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's wild.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Just think and wrap your head around. I just think
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: about this, Tyler.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: He was born in nineteen thirty five. Nineteen thirty five, Tyler.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: His college roommate was Jack Kemp. Wow, yeah, how about
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: that one. I mean it's crazy. Yeah. Another teammate was
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Ron boch Botchin, who went on to become a successful
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: NFL game official. Yeah, I mean, it's it's pretty incredible.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: He went to Occidental as well, and then became the
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: head coach there when he was wait, nineteen thirty five.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: If he was born in nineteen thirty five and he
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: became the head coach in nineteen sixty one, that would
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: be twenty six years old. Yeah, what is that? That?
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: What's that?
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Actually, he would have been the head coach when he
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: was twenty nine, because that was nineteen sixty four. He
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: was an assistant coach in sixty one, gotcha? Okay? Yeah? Wow,
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: I mean that is unbelassable. He's also an Eagle Scout.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: He was presented the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award as an
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: adult by the Boy Scouts of America.
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: Nice.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and Tyler, you just look at the guy.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: What position do you think he played?
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: I would have said dB he was a tight end.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: Really, yeah, that's what it says. Wow. Yeah. Two time
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: USFL champion, NFL Coach of the Year in nineteen eighty seven,
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: and he is in the New Orleans Saints Hall of Fame. Tyler,

  Speaker 2: I mean he played with the Saints for six or
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: seven years something like that.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Same. I mean, I'm pretty sure he's not, but

• 7:38
  Speaker 3: thank you to Jim Moore for doing that. That's truly incredible.

• 9:06
  Speaker 3: going to introduce ourselves or I will introduce ourselves, and
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: then we'll talk for a few minutes about the Monday
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: night tiebreakers and then we'll come back. So this, if
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: you listened to the weekend wrap up. You heard us
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: talk about the fact that this won't be coming out
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: till Tuesday. That's why. But yeah, we've got all kinds
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: of stuff to talk about here, Tyler. So let's just
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: get right into it with the game that kind of
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: put us in this predicament. Blame getting a win over
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: Meridian on Thursday night at home the Border Rights twenty
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: seven twenty two over the Trojans. Yeah.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: I was at this game.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: I was there for the entire the entire game start
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: to finish, took stats, sat up in the booth, and
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I was just, you know, I was rooting for chaos
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: and got it.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: The first half was a little bit of it had
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: the feel.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: That like Blaine was pulling out all the stops, nothing
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: to lose, and Meridian was kind of not showing their
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: hand completely and they were both a little Not a
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: ton happened in the first quarter. Blaine did go for
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: it on fourth down. They lined up to punt and everything,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: and the balls snapped to the punter and instead of
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: punting a deep spiral, he threw a deep spiral and
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: and they came down with it a thirty one yard
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: pass and were not They got inside the five, but
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: then a snap went over calling Davis's head and and
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: they even knocked him out of a field goal range.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: So they didn't get any points out of it, but
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: they kind of showed what they you know, that they're
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: willing to do everything they could to, you know, win
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: this game, you know, Meridian. A win by Meridian would
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: put them in no doubt, but a loss would still.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: Keep them in the hunt.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: So so Blaine, you know, was playing a little bit
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: more like they didn't have anything to lose. What was
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: also unique about the Trojans was they were without Kelly
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: Gray and that was a big deal on offense and defense.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: He's he's just one of those great underrated players that
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: you kind of don't know what you got till it's
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: gone type thing.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: And and without him, it was tough.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: The nice thing is they were able to get Exavier
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Pairing back and so he kind of started in that
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: in that spot, I mean even starting a linebacker all year.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: He's missed the last few games, but he was back
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: at linebacker and so that was that that was good,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: and you know, they were they were kind of trying
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: some different guys and and uh, but they did not
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: hand the ball off to land and Downey until the
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: third quarter, which I thought was really unique. But they
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: did get the ball to him quite a bit. They
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: split him out wide, they tried to find mismatch problems.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: You know, if it was a smaller corner on him, they
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: just throw it to him right away and he just
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: break the tackle and go. He had a couple of
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: big plays. He did have a touchdown that was called back.
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: And he landed down.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: He was just out there, you know, with a lot
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: of determination and played really well. But it was it
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: was a lot of passes. It was a lot of
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: passing by Meridian, a lot of running by Blaine. They
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: each score a touchdown in the first half and at
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: seven seven and you're thinking, okay, well and Blaine really
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: controlled the you know, the control of the clock in
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: the first half. I think Meridian had like thirteen or
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: fourteen offensive plays in the first half alone, and that
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: was just, you know, it was it was crazy because you.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Know, Blaine had that long first drive.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: They throw the fake punt, they keep it going, Maridian
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: gets the ball, they fumble on the second play, Blaine
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: gets it back, long drive again, So they would they're
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: just really good at sitting on the clock and and
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: keeping it going. And what was great with them too,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: is they made the right plays on like third and
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: four and they didn't get into like a fourth and
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: sixth situation where.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: They go for it and they don't get it.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: And that's kind of been their bugaboo a little bit
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: this year, was they would go for it a lot
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: on fourth down and they just they just couldn't convert.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: And there were easier fourth downs and third downs to
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: convert in this game, and that really helped. I think
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Jayden Piez probably had like eighty yards in the first half,
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: and he really exploded in the second half. In the
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: third quarter, he had a long run I thought he scored,
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: but he didn't ended up and I'm sorry that was
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. In the third quarter there was
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, he just had a lot of these ten
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: to fifteen yard runs to get him down the field.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Colin Davis is very, very good at the quarterback sneak.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: It's kind of one of those where they're in shotgun
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: basically one hundred percent of the time, and then he
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: runs up behind the center and you have to wait
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: for at least a second and then snap and then
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: just go and it's got such a he's got such
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: a big offensive line. He was able to do that
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: twice in the game, and uh and yeah.
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: But the second one that he did in the fourth quarter,
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: that was set.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Up by a long run by Piez where he got
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: pushed out of bounds at the one yard line. Casey Brennan,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: big time speed, was able to get the get the
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: angle on him and get him out of bounds.
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: And uh.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: But they turned around and scored on the next on
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: the next play. But that was and at that point
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: it was twenty one to seven in the fourth quarter
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: and Meridian kind of woke up a little bit. They
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: able to get down the field and score on a
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: long touchdown pass from Jager Fife to Casey Brennan, and
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Casey Brennan just so fast.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: I mean he just got behind the defense.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: I mean he just you know, they talk about the
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: take the top off a defense type thing, like Casey
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Brennan's that kind of guy where he can just get
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: past everybody.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: And Jagger Pip's got a big.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Arm, so just laid out there and all of a sudden,
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: there he is catching it in the end zone.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: Forty three yard touchdown. And then right away.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: Pyaz answered back with a forty three yard touchdown run
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: down and it was just kind of back and forth
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: from there, but you know, down he he scores a
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: five yard touchdown run. I think that was like with
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: six minutes to go in the game, and he kicks
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: extra point and now you're down by five and Blaine
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: was just trying to find a ways just to stay
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: in then and they had they had a third and
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: ten on like their own twenty eight. And this is
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: a huge, huge play because I think at that time
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: there was probab three minutes left and you got to
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: convert this to try to keep the clock going and
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: don't give Muradian the ball back. And there was a
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: play when Colin Davis went back and you could see
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: him going over his progressions. This guy, this guy, this guy,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: and time time's running out, Meridian pressure is getting to
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: him and he hurry up and throws it to Piez
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: to to his left side and Piez get picks up
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: a first down. That was a huge play where I
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: don't know if that would have been a play that
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Davis could have made in the beginning of the year,
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: and he made a great play there. Davis also made
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: some great plays defensively, breaking up passes, I think, because
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: after that they were able to possess the ball, run
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: some more clock, and then they ended up going for
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: it on fourth down again and not getting it. Jager
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Fife knocks the ball away, so Meridian has got one
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: last chance. They drive down and then on fourth down
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: they throw a pass into the end zone and that
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: gets knocked away by Colin Davis. So kind of a
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: you know, full circle moment for him and Colin Davis.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: You know, he'll be the first one to admit he
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: just has not been on his game passing the ball
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: this year. They even brought in Connor Brown for a
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: play to throw it deep. Who's the freshman player, the freshman,
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: the backup quarterback. They just put him in on a
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: play and threw it deep and completed the pass and
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: got him out of there and put Davis back in
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: and that was the drive where they went down and
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: scored their first touchdown. And it just, you know, I
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: can't imagine what it's like, and you know, you feel
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: like maybe there's not a lot of confidence in me,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: that kind of feeling, but boy, he played so well
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: and when he completed that pass to Paiez.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: You could tell it.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: It was kind of like the getting the monkey off
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: my back, like I can do this.
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: I've been here before.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's thrown a lot of touchdown passes, and
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: he's thrown like, I don't know, close to thirty touchdown
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: passes in his career.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: It's not like he can't do it. He's just been
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: a little off this year.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: But he's been playing a lot more defense this year,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: and he played great defense on Thursday night and Blank
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: come out with the win. I mean, it was it
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: was one of those things where we've talked about how
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: kind of certain teams have other teams's number, and right
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: now it kind of feels like Blaine has Meridian's number. Now,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: I'm Meriadian coming off that game where they were up
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: twenty two to nothing halfway through the third and they
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: end up losing thirty to twenty nine. So I don't
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: know if there was a little bit of a hangover
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: from that a short week It's tough to say. I mean,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Blaine got trounced pretty bad on that same weekend, so
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: it's not like you could just say, well, that's just
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: what it is.
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: But Blaine came out.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: And one thing that really impressed me with Blaine as
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: well was when they recovered that fumble early, they didn't
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: get too excited about it, you know, and when they
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: turned the ball over on downs, they didn't get too
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: down about it. They remained pretty even keel. I think
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: early on when they were doing well, they get overly
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: excited about it, and when they would have a mistake,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: they just you could just see the emotion on the
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: field and all of a sudden they're jumping off sides
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: and they just didn't know how to control their emotions,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: good or bad. And that really was different on Thursday night.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: It was good to see it in person that you
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: can get the feel for it. It just gets It's
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: so much easier to write a story when you're at
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: the game than when you're just watching the film.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: And so that that felt good.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: And uh and.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: With the border right win, it corrupt, you know, creates
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: the havoc, It creates the chaos that we were talking
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: about for Blaine.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Three hundred and ten yards of offense to twenty on
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: the ground, ninety through the air, meridian twooh six total,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: two hundred and ten passing minus four rushing. Now a
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: lot of that came from uh Jagger Fife and minus
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: sixteen on his own, which is I would assume.
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he got he got sacked three times.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's not like It's not like he
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: was playing bad. I mean, end of the night, he
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: had fifteen completions for two hundred and ten yards and
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: a touchdown pass so exactly. Yeah, I mean, not too bad.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: But let's see here landing down, He's six carries twenty
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: yards Jade and Payez thirty four carries two hundred and
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: thirty seven yards and just the one touchdown, but forty
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: three yards on that run, and it ends up essentially
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: being the game winner, if you will. But yeah, I
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: mean this is a big night, you know, when you
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: look at it for Blaine, I mean this is something
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: that they worked for last year was was was a
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: growing year for that program, and now here they are.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: They put themselves in a spot to potentially get into
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: the round of thirty two. Again. We will talk about
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: this one later on Tyler. Any defensive numbers, Yeah.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: On the Blaine side, I thought Logan villa Rial did
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: a really good job. Six and a half tackles. He
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: had a tackle for loss, a forced fumble.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: That was that one.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Early in the game, he had another play where Meridan
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: lined up on fourth down and you know, Jagerfiffe is
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: their punter, and so they had Kay Kerwin back, who
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: usually plays corner. They had him back to return the punt.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: So when they do that, they put villa Rial as
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: a corner who usually plays safety, so you just kind
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: of swap them and they ended up just snapping it
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: and doing a regular play. Well, when that happened, Kerwin
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: ran in and villa Real was on an island with
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: a guy and he made a great break on a
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: pass and broke it up on fourth down, and that
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: was another huge, huge play, So kudos to him on
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: playing kind of out of position there and making a big,
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: big play. Blake Kureski with another quarterback sack, so now
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: that gives him another extra sack lead there on the county.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I thought that Axel Shelton was awesome as a linebacker.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: He's played a lot defensive line earlier in the year.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Just a sophomore, one of the few underclassmen on this
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: team that gets a lot of playing time. He had
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: seven and a half tackles, He had half a sack,
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: had some big time stops and Colin Davis, like I
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: said earlier.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: He played.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: He played great.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: He defended they they tried that double pass and he
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: came right up and he sacked the well, I guess
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: it's a sack, but because he's going for a pass,
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: but it's the receiver and he made the play on that.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think that he was schooled on that
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: play big time. He broke away. He broke off the
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: pass on four down in the end zone that you know,
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: was kind of the big play of the game at
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: the end. And then rightfully he got to you know,
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: fall on the ball in the victory formation to close
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: it out on Meridian side. Landon Downe he had a
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: huge game. Ten tackles, two tackles for loss. A quarterback
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Zach No surprise there. He just every single week puts
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: out big time numbers. I thought Landon Rally played great.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: A sophomore defensive lineman that we're gonna hear a lot
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: about the next couple of years. Great baseball player too.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: He had a couple tackles for loss. Really really like
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: his game. Lincoln Hofer was a monster out there, like usual,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: five tackles, He had a tackle for loss, River Todd
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: did some really good things. The freshman corner Xavier Parent
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: had eight tackles in his return. Casey Brennan's seven tackles
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: and a pass broken up. Jackson hurl but did really
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: well in his return, playing some nose tackles. So a
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: lot of good things for both teams, and they get
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: to keep playing here for something.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, as a matter of fact, they might see each
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: other again here. Huh happened Blaine twenty seven two over
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: Meridian on Thursday night. We now go across the mountains
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: where Mount Baker went over for an interesting Thursday night contest,
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: but with the the Monday possibility, they kind of needed
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: to get a day start on the week. But they
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: do come away with a lost twenty seven to twenty
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: o Mac gets the gets the Pioneers and the Mountaineers.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Kind of a funny one, but yeah, they do come
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: away twenty seven to twenty win for Omak. Yeah.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: I saw Omac earlier in the year, and I know
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Meridian roped him up ptty good. I think they beat
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: him by four touchdowns, but I don't and I don't.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: I didn't recall anything about them that stood out, But
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: when as soon as I started watching this film.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: Their quarterback really really stood out.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Got kind of a funky delivery. Plus he's left handed,
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: so it really it really kind of adds that extra
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: funk to.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: It, if you will.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: But man, he slippery and quick side to side and
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: really fast. I mean, he gets the corner and guys
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: have the guys have the angle on him, and he's
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: still out you know, he's still out out outruns him.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: You know, you've talked about that play when Layton Smithson
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: kind of you know, went between those two defenders that
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: both had the angle on him. And I'm not saying
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: he's Layton Smith's and fast, but he he had that
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: feel to it.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: It's like, whoa, you got to look out for that.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: And I just don't think Baker played a quarterback all
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: year that had that kind of athleticism. And it's just
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: it's something that it's really hard to coach, you know for,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: and it's really hard to prepare for, and especially if
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: you have defenders with.
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: Your back to him.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Then all of a sudden he runs for a first
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: down and you could do everything right and he could
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: run for a fifteen yard play and it's like geez,
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Like this is this is really really tough. You know,
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: this is this is how do you defend this? And
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: he was just kind of giving Baker fits all night. Now,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: he did throw a couple interceptions, one to Dila Moa
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: won by kel Riardan, which was an amazing play. I
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: tell you what, every single week, kel Riardan is just
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: upping his game. You know, I thought two weeks ago
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: inst Lendy Christian he had the best game of his
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: young career, and then all of a sudden last week
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: he wins the defensive Player of the week, and then
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: this this week he probably even played better. There was
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: just one of those passes where they were gonna do
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: like an inside screen and kel Reerdne, who's about five
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: yards away from the quarterback, just jumped up and with
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: two hands and just grabbed it out of the air.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: And I was like, holy cow. I mean, I know
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: he's athletic. I mean he's a great center on the
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: basketball team, but my goodness, what a play. And he
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: just gets better and better and that set them up
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: for a short field and that's kind of how they scored.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: And you're gonna talk about the yards in a little bit.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: It's kind of hard to believe when you look at
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: the total yards that it was just a one score game.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: But Mount Baker stayed in it with some short fields
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: and they took advantage of it, you know, a couple
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: couple rushing touchdowns there in the middle of the game.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: They did score one very late as well.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: I think, you know, the touchdown to Gilstrap was probably
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: with less than a minute to go in the game.
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: But uh, you know, probably playing that game far away
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: and thinking, okay, we just got to play and.
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: Who knows, you know, about.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: Our future, and all of a sudden, somebody gets a
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: text and says, guess what, You're still alive. So kind
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: of a unique deal there, probably a joyous bus ride
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: home after a loss.
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that probably doesn't happen too often. But yeah, Tyler,
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: of the yards, like you said, they don't really combine
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: with the score, if you will, they don't really show.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: And they possessed the ball twice as long if you
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: look at the total plays, you know, and so that
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: kind of feeds.
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: Into it as well. Oh, Mac four hundred and eleven
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: yards of offense, two seventy three on the ground, one
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: thirty eight through the air, forty four carries alone is
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: more than what Mount Baker had on the night the Mountaineers.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: One hundred and sixty five yards one twenty on the ground,
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: forty five through the air. One of those weeks, it'd
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: be very bad to pick any of these guys in
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: your fantasy as far as offense goes.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: But but well someone may have picked their offense.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Just saying yeah, somebody might have. We'll find out here
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: in the fantasy a little bit, because yeah, we're gonna
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: talk about that one a lot because it was a
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: good score here. But uh yeah, uh Tyler, how about
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: on the defensive side, what's going on over there?
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean kel Reardon, Like I said, again, big
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: big game, seven and a half tackles, He had a
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: he had another quarterback sack. He blocked a punt that
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: that was that forced another short field there. So his
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: blocked punt and his interception both led to short touchdowns.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: With this with the short fields, I mean he he
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: did a lot defensively. Cade Moser had a couple of sacks,
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: also had the he recovered the block punt.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: He had five and a half tackles.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: The senior defensive end, uh cam to Moa had eight
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: tackles and two of them were for a loss. Dylan
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: Moha had a sack and an interception. Brady Brulin four
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: and a half tackles, half tackle for loss. He had
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: a pass broken up. Those are kind of the main
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: guys on defense again.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: Omak twenty seven to twenty over Mount Baker across the Mountains.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: Now we head over to the last Thursday game of
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: the week, Seahome Archbishop Murphy. And for this one we
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: head to the coach's corner with our coach, Jeff Wood. Coach,
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: how we doing doing great Royland. Not a whole lot
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: to talk about here unless you're an Archbishop Murphy fan.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: The Wildcats come to town and really, I mean the best
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: way to say it is dismantle Seahome fifty six fourteen
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: fourteen fourteen, twenty one seven. Kind of the story of
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: the game here, score by quarter for Archbishop Murphy. It
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: was kind of twenty one nothing maybe a little bit
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: before you kind of even knew it.
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the wing tea attack was just as a machine,
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: very well executed by Archbishop Murphy. And they were coming
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: off of bye. Seahome was coming off a big win
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: which they had some injuries and some sickness, so they
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: are missing a handful of guys.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: So it was kind of.
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: All all things kind of pointing down and pretty pretty
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: tough one for Themarners on Halloween.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's almost kind of one of those ones that
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: you almost think it's kind of like a scary movie
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: in a way. Twenty one nothing before Andre Watson catches
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: a sixty seven yard pass from Nolan Wright. You know,
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: that duo connected twice on the night, both for really
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: really long ones. But you know, at the end of
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: the day, the ground attack, the ground and pound goes
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: for four hundred and fifty seven yards for Archbishop Murphy
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: and they only can They only attempted one pass on
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: the night and didn't complete it. But yeah, I mean,
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: I guess in a way, coach, I'm I'm trying to
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: search for some positives here. If I'm a Seahome fan.
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: You know, I think you would say maybe coming out
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: of it healthy would be good with the guys you
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: brought in. But they ended up see Home had a
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: couple other injuries as the game went on, so that
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: was not so hot either. But they the guys had
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: they had out there, kept kept battling and you know,
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: you still have Nolan and Andre and they're connecting for
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: a lot of big pass plays. Andre cut two hundred
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: and seventy seven yards worth of passes, which is I
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: think just ten yards less than the all time county record,
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: And so there's definitely some fireworks there. And they were,
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: you know, battling on both sides of the ball till
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: the end. And you know, so sometimes that happens in football.
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: You know, you just tip your cap and heel up
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: and get ready to play the next week.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Right, did complete seventeen passes for three hundred and
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: twenty yards, although I would assume a lot of those
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: yards probably came later as the game went on. But yeah,
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, this is just a tough one. Maybe not
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: the way, you know. I guess what I'm trying to
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: say here is maybe you didn't necessarily expect to go
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: and to win this game, but you probably expected to
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: be more competitive. That being said, season's not over, and
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: they did get a very very good seed, uh for
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: the for the first for the round of thirty two,
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: I guess is what we'll call it, because technically it's
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: not the first round of the state tournament. But yeah,
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, still a lot, a lot to look forward
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: to here, because this is a team that I think
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of people are expecting to, you know, maybe
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: be a little sneaky and do a little bit of
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: damage here in the state tournament. Coach, you've seen a
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: lot of football over the years. You think this is
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: a team that can make a run.
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: I do, Ryland. I mean, they have a lot of talent,
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: and they're going to get some of those guys back
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: that they're missing last week. You know, so you think
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: of you know, early on in the season, all the
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: way up through that, you know, that game against Squalacum
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: where they were kind of peeking on both sides of
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: the ball. They get a home game, which is great.
• 31:00
  Speaker 5: It's a Saturday game at four, so an extra day
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: to prepare, and you know, I think chief self has
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: a great record, but their league is you know, I
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: haven't seen their league this year, but traditionally not as
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: strong as the Northwest Conference. So I think definitely in
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: this round of thirty two, Seahome should be the favorite
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: in this game and then they reseed it and who
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: knows where it shakes out after that. But I know
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: those players are chomping at the bit to play some
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: postseason football.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're right about chief Self actually an their
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: head coach. He's a really good dude, young guy. Oddly enough,
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: I covered him while he was in high school. No,
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: that doesn't make me feel old because it's not like
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: this is going back twenty some odd years, right, but
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: they did go seven to one in their league. Now,
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know how to say this, Ingram West, Seattle,
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: Lincoln of Seattle, Nathan Hale, Lakes Franklin, Cleveland. Not exactly
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: a murderer's row of teams here. But you know, anytime
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: you got a team that's going seven to one, eight
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: and one overall, definitely not just gonna be a pushover.
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: And I'm sure those guys are gonna come in fired up.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: This is a chief Self team that Tyler. Did they
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: play up here this year or was it I know
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: they've played up here recently?
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they Bellingham played played them in Week one this
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: year down at Memorial Stadium.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: Okay, and Bellingham lost that one.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: I believe it went into overtime, seven to seven, and
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Bellingham had a lot of chances. They missed a field
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: goal that would have won it, and then chief Self
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: won it with the field. Well, Bellingham scored like on
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: the third play of the game, and they didn't score
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: again after that. Chief self scored late in the fourth
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: to put it into overtime. So it was a really
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: unique game. And Bellingham was completely different team at that
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: point than they are now, so and maybe it's very
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: possible Chief South was as well.
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: Coach, this is a game that you said you got
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: some what some DECA stuff going on this weekend, is
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: what I think it told me. But you said you
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: might be out at the Sea home game on Saturday.
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I should be back from the Decca Conference in
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: time to to make it down to Civic Stadium. So
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: should be able to catch another Mariner game, and yeah,
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: should be a good one.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: Now, coach, First off, where is this DECA conference at
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: It's in Bellevue. Oh really? You know? Past past you
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: a little ways. Yeah, you need any food recommendations, you
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: know how to get a hold of me? Now tell
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: me this. I just have to know what goes on
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: at a DECCA conference.
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: You know, there's a lot of workshops. They're speakers, The
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: kids do mock role plays and business interviews. So it's
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: a lot of skills that they can gain to better
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: themselves in the in the business environment, or just in
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: in any environment. So it's a it's a good, good
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: experience for the kids.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: Tell you what sounds like something that you know, Maybe
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: Tyler needs to shave and make his way on down
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: or pretend like he's a high school kid.
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: I'll make sure to wear a hat too.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, we're a lot in preps one.
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: Nobody will know what it is. Maybe you can pick
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: up some business while you're down there. Yeah, exactly, all right, coach,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: any last words before you let you get out of here, No,
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: I don't think so. Alrighty, well again Archbishop Murphy fifty
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: six to fourteen Oversea Home on Thursday night at Civic Stadium.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: This has been Coaches Corner with our coach Jeff Wood. Coach,
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: thanks for your time, Thanks for Ellen. Thank you again
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: to coach Wood for his time. Tyler. Let's get into
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: the Friday games. The first one a six pm game.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: If I remember correctly, I think it was five. Was
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: it five? Oh yeah, that's right, because yeah five o'clock
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: down there at Shoreline Stadium, Ferndale absolutely hammered shore with
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: forty nine to seven.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Tyler, Yeah, it was crazy because I'm getting I was
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: on the radio at the time and we're doing the
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: pregame show and my phone's just buzzing, you know, and
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh, yeah, there's a game going right now,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: and I'm getting updates seven nothing, seven to seven, and
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, it's gonna go back back and forth
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: and it's like fourteen seven twenty one seven.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: All of a sudden in the third quarter, my phone is.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: Like hot, like it's just buzzing like crazy, and they
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: and you know, it just can't It's and I keep thinking,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: I'm reading the same thing. It's this bun guard rushing
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: touchdown and and talent bun guard ran He carried the
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: ball seven times for one hundred and eighty yards and
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: four touchdowns in the third quarter alone.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Whoa.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: And it was basically just like, okay, let's just put
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: this thing to bed, let's feed the beast.
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: And that's kind of what happened.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: And go home. Yeah.
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: Shorewood very very run heavy, much like Ferndale. They did
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: score on the forty yard touchdown pass and but you know,
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: that was that was really it. There wasn't a ton
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: of big big play he is by them. They got
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: some yards at the end of the game against the
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: JV players.
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: But good to.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: See Zach Nielsen back. That was awesome. He came back
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: a few weeks ago and just played defense, but he
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: hasn't He hadn't played on offense for like since like
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: week four. I think it was the Mount Vernon game,
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: so it that had been a while. And you know,
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: he was right at their starting and they first carry
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: the game, they or first played the game. They give
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: him the ball, which was awesome to see. He scores
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: the first touchdown of the game, which was great. And
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: I tell you what, I loved the play where they
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: threw it over there.
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: On the pass Elliott Lentson. They put him in.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: Elliot Lentson usually plays he's a backup half back and
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: he starts at free safety, but they they put him
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: in a wing back every once in a while, and
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: it seems like when they do, they want to get
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: him the ball, maybe not hand it to him, but
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: throw it to him. And he did kind of like
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: a you know, the tight end goes like you know,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: it does like an inn or go does a little bit,
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: and he's lined up right next to the tight end
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: and he does a quick out and he's so fast
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: and they just get him the ball and he breaks
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: one tackle and all of a sudden he's gone. He's
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: going town on the sideline and there's another guy that's
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: got an angle on him. He just outruns him. Uh,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: he's got some serious speed. So Elliot Lenson with another touchdown.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: He's a big play threat. And and that was you know,
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: the end of the half twenty one to seven. Well
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: then tallon bung guard goes off for four touchdowns. This
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: is his second five touchdown performance in a row. And
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: he's just man, he's just on a mission. I love
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: watching him play. But what's been really cool is that
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: on a lot of these runs where he's you know,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: he's plowing through guys and he's breaking tackles and he's
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: just he's just you know, hit sticking these guys. But
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: then he'll run away from guys at the end. So
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: he is deceptively fast. If you don't if you don't
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: think he's fast, just watch. I mean you'll be surprised
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: how fast he really is, especially for how big he
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: is at about six two two d and twenty five
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: pounds he went off. I mean, you're going to talk
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: about the stats a little bit, but that was that
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: was really the big thing. And I thought, I thought
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Bolliac played his best game, which was really good to see,
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: and you could just the maturation going from Week one
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: against Lyndon to now has been has just been awesome.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: And I and I know he really took reins of
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: the quarterback job in the off season and worked hard
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: and earned that job. And it was there was talk
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: as Zach Nielson going to play quarterback. What are they
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: gonna do? Is he is, boyak ready for it? Boy
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: he's been proven a lot of people wrong and he's
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: playing really, really well. You're not asked to do a ton.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: You just asked not to make any mistakes. And when
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: you get when you do have your moments to pass,
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: hit the open guy because he's probably going to be open.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: And he did a great job and Ferndale looked awesome.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: This was by far their most complete game.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: For Ferndale five hundred and nineteen yards of offense, four
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: hundred and seventeen on the ground, one hundred and two
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: through the air. Shorewood just one hundred and eighty seven
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: total yards, one thirty eight on the ground, forty nine
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: through the air, and forty of those came on the
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: one touchdown pass, So after that touchdown pass really shut
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: him down as far as the passing game goes, which
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: you know, as we know, is a way to get
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: that offense kind of going. Sometimes you know, maybe the
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: run game isn't working, is great, and then you know,
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: you throw a couple of passes and before you know it,
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: they got to kind of respect that at least just
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: a little bit. But sure, let's see here. Bung Guard
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: twenty three carries two hundred and sixty four yards, five
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: touchdown runs on carries of eight, forty five, fifty four,
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: and fifty five. I mean, my goodness, Eli Kennery four
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: carries fifty three yards. You mentioned, Zach Nilson coming back
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: five carries twenty five yards and one touchdown run of
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: eight yards. Wyatt Broyles also five carries for thirty nine yards.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: Bowliac five of nine for one hundred and two yards
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: and the one touchdown pass to Elliott Lentzon. Lentsen two
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: catches fifty two yards, Kennerley one catch for twenty three
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: All around, I mean, this is, as you said, you know,
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: maybe their most complete game, which I think you might
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: have also said last week, So things are starting to
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: click at the right time here for Ferndale. What about
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: on the defensive side.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, defensive side, I've had John Stanik played really well.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: He's been playing a lot more linebacker now and he's
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: just a really physical player. He had six tackles, he
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: had a sack, he had a fumble recovery. Zach Nielsen
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: back in action now, six and a half tackles from
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: a safety spot. Jacob Gandy every single week seems to
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: do pretty well. Seven and a half tackles. He had
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: a fumble recovery as well. I thought Elliott Lentzen played
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: really well and he had five tackles and two passes
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: broken up from the safety spot.
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: Those were kind of the main guys on the defensive side.
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: Ferndale big win forty nine to seven overshore Wood. They
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: will move on to the round of thirty two. We
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: will talk more about the round of thirty two on
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: the podcast here in a couple of days, so be
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: sure to look for that. Let's see here Lyndon, they
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: go on the road down to Roland Kirkby Field. You
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: get a thirty one seven win over Burlington Edison Tyler.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this was an interesting one to watch because it's
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: like it seems like Burlington just kind of gives Linden
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: fits a little bit for some reason. And and Linden
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: was they weren't, you know, after watching the Lakewood game,
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: I thought they were gonna have some more explosive plays
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: in this, but Burlington always plays them well, especially you know,
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: down there. And but Lynden Man Bran Heppner is really good.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's just it's just it's so fun to
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: watch him because you just don't see quarterbacks like that
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: at the high school level, especially up here where they
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: can just stand there and see everything and then just
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: dart guys just or dot guys, I should say, throwing darts,
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: but just hitting them perfectly, and and and going through
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: his progression.
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: So fast like boom boom boom, and just and he's
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: just it's it is really really cool to watch.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: And I think that I think I know a lot
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: more about watching film and football than I did when
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: like Simon Burkette and Casey Bauman played And I think
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: I was just kind of watching them, going, yeah, they're
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: good quarterbacks, but I didn't understand how good they really were.
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: And and and since then, you know, there have been
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: good quarterbacks, but not like those two. And now watching
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: Brent Heppner, it's like, okay, yeah, this is kind of
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: what that was like.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: Wasn't it?
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: And I just didn't. I kind of took it for granted.
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: He played great.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: Isaiah Aldman was it was a man child out there.
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's just such a mismatch problem.
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: They really liked.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: To, you know, get him isolated one on one and
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: and good luck.
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: So that was that was really really cool to watch.
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: I thought.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: I thought Max Austink, you know, played really well, running back,
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: ran hard. You know, Hepner carry the ball a little
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: bit as well. Uh, Sam Morango again putting up numbers. Yeah,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: but Heppner Audman, you know, the seniors on their last
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: conference game, I did really well and they needed to
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: get that win to secure that three way tie they
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: all share the Northwest Conference championship.
• 43:07
  Speaker 4: And uh so, yeah, it was a good win for Lyndon.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: And you know the second half it was they played
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: a lot of backups and they did allow the one touchdown.
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: But uh, that's just kind of like when Linden wins
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: these games, they always seem to win, like thirty one
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: to seven.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: They don't really blow anybody out because they they kind of,
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know how to explain it. They just they
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: just kind of do it the right way and they go, Okay,
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: we're good, we could play the backups now, and they
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: just they've just been doing it for so long and
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: they kind of got it down and it was it
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: was very workmanlike.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: Uh for the Lions four hundred and twenty two yards
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty four on the ground to ninety
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: eight through the air. Excuse me, Brolli's and Edison two
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: twenty three total, one twenty four on the ground. Both
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: teams had one hundred and twenty four on the ground.
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: The difference is the two hundred yard difference in the
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: passing game exactly. Well, I guess it'd be one hundred and.
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: Ninety eight, right, well, yeah, ninety nine.
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: One hundred ninety nine. Excuse me. Yeah. Max Austin thirteen
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: carries sixty three yards, Brant Heppner seven carries for thirty yards.
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: Heppner was also seventeen of twenty nine for two ninety
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: eight and three touchdowns, all three to Isaiah Audman fifty
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: two yards, fourteen yards thirty three yards Lucas Logy ten
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: carries fifteen yards, Yeah Audman six. Audman six receptions for
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: one hundred and forty one yards and the three touchdowns.
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: He also had one rushing from one yard out. Sam
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: Marango five catches sixty four yards. Max Ostinc also had
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: three catches for forty three So good all around game
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: by a few guys here. What about defensive tale Tyler.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: Well, it's one of those games where nobody really stood
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: out because they you know, Burlington didn't have the ball
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: for very long and they subbed in a lot of
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: different guys. I thought Brody Price played really well from
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: the safety spot. He had three and a half tackles,
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: a couple of passes broken up. That guy just wants
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: to go out and hit somebody all the time. Isaiah
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Albman and Parker Williams as usual, had you know, stops
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: behind the line of scrimmage did well. I thought Lofa
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: Tiglau probably had the best game defensively he had. He
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: led them with five and a half tackles, plus he
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: had an interception on a ball that was tipped up
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: in the air at the line of scrimmage. I think
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: Burlington was even in the red zone when it happened
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: and Isaiah Albman got a hand on it, ball goes
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: up in the air and Tiglau, the safety dives and
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: makes the interception, so big, big play for him. And
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: and yeah, just you know, just a lot of guys
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: getting in playing and that's just kind of what you
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: expect at this point. And and that's what we're gonna see,
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: you know, coming up. And and they're as gear up
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: for the playoffs.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: Here again, Lindon thirty one to seven over Burlington Edison.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: On Friday night, we now had to Civic Stadium, Tyler
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: for the third and final inner Bellingham's you know clash
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: if you will. Yeah, Squalcum comes away thirty nine to
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: twenty win over Bellingham. This game maybe not really as
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: close as it looks. It was thirty nine nothing at
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: one point.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this was one where you know, I was updating
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: the radio this this game was going on forever, it
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: seemed like. And I think they even went off the
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: air before the game went final.
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think they kind of knew who was
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: gonna win anyways.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: But but yeah, Squalalcum just started out really hot, I mean,
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: scoring three touchdowns, three passing touchdowns in the first quarter
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: really really got them going. Cole Burke, who had at
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: the first touchdown to Anson Osby Ornson, was fantastic because
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: he dropped back, he had a guy in his face,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: got move, moved past him, made another guy miss, and
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: then he stepped so far up in the pocket that
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: it looked like he was gonna run, but he had
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: the presence of mind and know where he was. Delivers
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: the ball to Osby Ornson, who catches, makes a great play,
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: thirty yard touchdown, and that kind.
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: Of got the ball rolling. Right after they got the
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: ball back.
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: After that, I believe it was Zach Watt had an
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: interception near midfield. Very next play, Burke finds Marcus Nixon
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: on a fifty three yard touchdown pass, which is a
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: play that they've ran all year. They did it, they
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: burned Archbishop on it. They've burned really good teams on it.
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: Where he's just playing running back and he basically just
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: runs outside the tackle and runs a go down the
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: scene and if you got a linebacker on him, good luck,
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: because Nixon's gonna outrun him. He's got great receiving skills,
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: great ball skills. Burke lays it up for him and
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: it's a touchdown, so that kind of got them going again.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: And then after that, Joaki Nortiz had a big punt
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: return it was like thirty something yards, really get them
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: into Bellingham territory once again. They reward him with a
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: one yard touchdown pass on a little shovel pass where
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: he's coming across, you know, and then they stops and
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: they just shovel to a boom and kind of that
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: kind of that underhanded Travis Kelcey player that they do
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: every once in a while, and and you know, the
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: lily just kind of jitterbugs into the end zone. It's
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: just hard to get that guy. And all of a sudden,
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: you know, it's twenty nothing in the first quarter. So
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: after that, you know, it was kind of evened out.
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: You know, teams make adjustments and stuff like that. I
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: thought Squawkam did a really good job in defending Bellingham's
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: deep passing game. They were kind of relying on having
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: to throw short. What they were doing, it seemed like
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: because they kind of play like a cover two almost
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: where they would it looked like the receiver was open
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: for a second going down the field, but then the
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: safeties would drop back and that's how Zach Watt got
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: He had two interceptions in the game, and that's kind
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: of how that happened. So, you know, it kind of
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: you forced the young quarterback into seeing something for a second.
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: He go he throws it deep, and all of a sudden,
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: it's like no, you know, and that's and that's a
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: that's a that's a tough play. And Ben Leonard's gonna learn.
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's such an accurate passer. He's got a
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: lot of varsity football ahead of him. But this was
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: a great scheme towards his strength, and so he i
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: was forced to throw a little bit shorter the.
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: Rest of the night.
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: And and because of that, a lot of guys had catches,
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: but not a ton of yards.
• 49:15
  Speaker 4: They did.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: They did one play that was really cool where they
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: had a it was like a fly sweep where you
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: just kind of shovel it to Bly Henderson and they
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: ran it like two or three times already, and he
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: was picking up pretty good yards. But then on the
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: third or fourth time they ran it, they they did
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: it to him. Everyone's going that way, and then he
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: pitches it like on a end around to Joe Harvard
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: coming around the other way where there was nobody and
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: it was a it was a really well designed player.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: They picked up They picked up like nineteen yards on
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: it or something like that. So it was I liked
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: some of the things that Bellingham was doing and using
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: their athletes, but squalkm was just they just kind of
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: had them overmatched.
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: Malachi Smith scores a touchdown before the half. Good to
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: see this, you know, the senior in his last home game,
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: you know, have some moments like that. I always feel
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: like he's just kind of been overshadowed offensively with being
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: the backup to Marcus Nixon. But he's such a good
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: running back and at least I'm glad that he stands
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: out as a linebacker because he's a great football player.
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: Great kid that's probably going to go play somewhere, you know,
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: one of those ups PLU type guys and just go
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: there and just find something for him to do as
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: a football player. I'm really excited about his future. Coldburg
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: had another great pass to Osby Ornson with really good
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: coverage on him, but made a great catch. Anton Osby
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: Ornson really turning into one of the better wide receivers
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: in Walkom County. He's kind of that next tier when
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: you look at you know, Watson and Orango and Robertson
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: and even you could throw an Audman in there and
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: kind of that next tier would have Osby Ornson and
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: Harvard and those kind of guys. So he's really having
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: a good year. Mark Nixon closes out his final carry
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: at Civic Stadium. He runs for an eighteen yard touchdown,
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: which was awesome to see. Puts some over one hundred
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: yard mark for the game. He takes a seat for
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: the rest of the game. What a great career he's had.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: They are going to play one more game, I believe
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: on Thursday against Camiak. But so really really cool there
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: they get. They go into the fourth quarter and Bellingham
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: has a few things go their way. They they recovered
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: a fumble like inside the five yard line. I think
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: it was I think it was Gave van Hoffwag and
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: recovered a fumble and or no, I'm sorry, it was
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: Calvin van Hoffwagen. He recovered a fumble and they were
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: able to turn that into a short touchdown run by Gabe.
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: Van Hoffwagon right as the quarter changed.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: Right going into the fourth quarter, and then from there,
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: uh Tyler Frost was starting to run pretty well in
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: the fourth quarter there, and Squally them didn't. It's not
• 51:40
  Speaker 2: like they had a bunch of JV guys out there.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: They they kept a lot of their varsity guys out there.
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: I saw Malachi Smith out there the whole time, So
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: the whole second era there out there the whole time.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: Avery Wiener, another linebacker was out there the whole time.
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: So Tyler Frost was starting to make some some thunder
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: if you will, and running up the middle, and and
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: he has he had like a thirty three yard run
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: and then in and ended up doing some more good things.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: His twenty two yard touchdown room was awesome. I mean,
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: it was just he breaking tackles, breaking tackles. Everybody kind
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: of stops at like the five, but he's still going
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: and then he dives in at the end zone and
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: scores a touchdown. Then they scored he scored another one late,
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: so yeah, so they were able to get three touchdowns
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: on the board there, and but yeah, I mean, I was.
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: Just obviously it was just too little, too late. But still,
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: you know, Squalk.
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: Them picks up a good good win here, and and
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: Bellingham is you know, they finished their conference schedule with
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: a with a loss there, But I'd love that, Like
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: you said, I love having these three games in a row,
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: all these inner cities games.
• 52:46
  Speaker 4: Like it like it used to be, which is great.
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: And I believe I don't know for sure, but I
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: believe Bellingham will be waiting out some of these one
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: A teams once they're done playing on Monday night to
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: figure out kind of who they're going to play in
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: week ten.
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned, uh, Squalicum, I'm gonna play Camiyak that game.
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: I see it as scheduled for Friday, seven pm down
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: at Cameack. Obviously we'll have that. We'll talk more about
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: it later this week. But let's see here for Squalicum
• 53:14
  Speaker 3: four hundred and eighteen yards of offense, one eighty six
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: on the ground, two thirty two through the air. Bellingham
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: two hundred and fifteen overall, one oh two on the ground,
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: one thirteen through the air. Tyler Frost nine carries, eighty
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: three yards, two touchdowns. Let's see here Ben Leonard nineteen
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: completions one hundred and thirteen yards and he did not
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: have a touchdown pass, but he did have a two
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: point conversion pass to Joe Harward. Blig Henderson leads the
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: way eleven catches for fifty five yards, Joe Harward five
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: catches for forty three for Squalicum. Marcus Nixon nineteen carries
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: hundred and one yards. He did have one touchdown run.
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: He did also have a touchdown reception on the night.
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: Two catches for fifty three three yards for Nixon. Malachi
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: Smith six carries forty three yards, Lacky Fungatu five carries
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: twenty two yards. Coleburke twenty of twenty seven for two
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: hundred and twenty five yards, and I see three touchdown passes,
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: four touchdown losses. Yeah, so I mean heck of a
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: night for that young man. I mean, arguably Tyler maybe
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: his best statistical night of the year. I mean that
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: is a that's a big game for that guy. Yeah.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: And he's been hovering around seventy percent passing the entire year,
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: is I.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: Mean very efficient.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think the Walking County record for a
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: season is like around sixty seven, sixty eight, sixty eight
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: point eight something like that might be Josh Kraft, So
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: we'll have to see one more game he might break
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: that Walking County record for a season.
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Run the ball, Lucy, like, let's make sure we
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: keep that one. Oz. I've totally forgot where I was here.
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Anson, Osby, Ornson.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: Hanson, Osby ards. So that's what I was. I was
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: talking receiving. I was looking up with the names at
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: the top, and I was just going, wait a minute,
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: that's not where I'm at now. I forgot oh Anson, Osby, Hornson.
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: Five catches, one hundred yards on the dot, Tyler and
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: two touchdown catches one of thirty three, one of thirty.
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: How about on defense?
• 55:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, defensively, I mean it's slocky.
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: I mean he just seems like every single game and
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: he didn't have a ton of tackles. He only had
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: three tackles in this game, but two of them were
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: for a loss. Lawrence Taylor style man just running down
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: the running back going the opposite way, just unbelievable. His
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: big playability. He also dropped back in coverage and did
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: some really good things. He knocked down three passes, which
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: really really kind of opened my eyes to like, man,
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: he can really do it all. It was just awesome
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: to see. Zach Watt played a great game. Five and
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: a half tackles, two interceptions on the game, which was awesome.
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: Joaquin Ortiz.
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: He had four tackles and he also had an interception,
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: so great job by those guys.
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: On the Bellingham side, Owen Hanstead had eight tackles.
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: He also had a sack coming on a safety blitz,
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: he broke up a pass and he had an interception.
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: It's been a while since he's had an interception the
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: old ballhog Bayawk, so that was good to see. I
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: think he returned it like thirty five yards. The van
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Hofwagens both had big games. Gave Ben off Wagon eight
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: and a half tackles, two tackles for loss. Calvin van
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: Affwagen six tackles. He also had two tackles for loss
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: and that bumble recovery Bli Henderson had seven tackles. He
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: had a quarterback sack, a pass broken up. Tyler Frost
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: had another one and a half tackles behind the line
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: of scrimmage. Just moving up that that ladder and Nate
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: Loss coming back hasn't played for a while. He had
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: eight and a half tackles. So a lot of good
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: things on the Bellingam side as well.
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: Squal Com thirty nine to over at Bellingham at Civic
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: Stadium on Friday night. Tyler the final game of the
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: weekend for US here. This is the one A Northwest
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: Conference championship game, if you will, nook Sack Valley thirty
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: two to seven over Linden Christian at Linden Christian. This
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: was a game pretty much everybody's been waiting for for
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: at least a few weeks now. Yeah, it's a great
• 57:11
  Speaker 3: rivalry game.
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: I love how oh excuse me, oh you two.
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: I love how it keeps me awake.
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: No, I love how it happened to be scheduled in
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: Week nine. I mean that was just I mean it
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: was great. And like last year, this was the game
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: kind of going in the year where you're like, yeah,
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: these are by far the two teams yea, And.
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: This year it was kind of hard to say.
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: But last year and then it was like a Week
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: five game or something like that, So it was kind
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: of unique that way where it was kind of like, oh,
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: it's here already, and now we'll just see how the
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: rest of the year goes. But man, and this was
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: pretty even to start out with. I was there for
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: the first half, and you know, right off the bat,
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: Els was forced to punt it away. Nuksack Valley kind
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: of got in a little bit of trouble with some
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: penalties and you know, holding stuff like that, and they
• 57:57
  Speaker 2: were kind of backed up a little bit. It was like,
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know, it's like third and thirteen or something
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: like that on their own twenty and they they go
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: for a pass and Corey one is wide open down
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: the middle of the field. I shouldn't say wide open,
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: but he was open enough to where Evan Brown found him.
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: They completed a long past thirty something yards thirty three
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: yards I think, and that really got things going. And
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: on the very next play, boom, you know, Colton Lentz
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: forty three yard touchdown run and.
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: And it was kind of on after that.
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: I was it was Lentz ran right past me and
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: I was like, yep, I wouldn't want to tackle that
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: guy at all.
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: And and but.
• 58:40
  Speaker 2: Elsie answered back really well. And on that on that
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: second drive where they it was their best drive of
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: the game, they were What was really unique about that
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: was Eli Mayberry was using his legs a lot.
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: And we haven't seen him rant run very much, but
• 58:53
  Speaker 4: he was. He was. He was, you know, keeping the.
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: Ball on on some options and he was a run
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: like a run pass option. He would keep it and
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: he would go or he would scramble a little bit,
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: and he would he would you know, he would uh slide.
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's a baseball kid. He's good.
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: He's a great baseball player, so he knows how to slide.
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: That's not going to be an issue. And he was
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: just doing the right thing. I mean, there was a
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: play where the ball was snapped to him and and
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: I don't know if this ever happened to you, probably not,
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: but where everybody's on the right page except for the
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: center and he snaps it early and that's kind of
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: like a scary play because the ball goes back and
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: usually the quarterback doesn't catch.
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: That because he's not expecting it.
• 59:31
  Speaker 2: But he caught it right away and he make got
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: like three or four yards out of it, Like you
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: just it was just one of those crazy plays where
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: he's always he's always thinking he did he was doing
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: some good things. They drive down, he scores, he throws
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: a touchdown past to Tray Bosman back left corner of
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: the end zone, kick the extra point. Now it's tied
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: seven to seven. You're like, yeah, this is kind of
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: what I expected. Pretty good game, and then uh nooksack Valley,
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: Drot drives back down again, and they were really kind
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: of stacking, you know, expecting a lot of Colton Lentz,
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: which you know they have every right to expect that.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 2: The great thing about Knuksac Valley is they really were
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: seeing that. And then either Brown sometimes would would keep
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: it and run or he was finding quick like quick outlets.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: You know, a guy would run like a five year pattern,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: turn around, boom, catch the ball. And and Corey only
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: really I think he had his best receiving game maybe.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: Of his career.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 2: And you know, a four year starter, and to knock
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: it out here with his last conference game of his career,
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: I think, and it's it's it's We've talked about him
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: a lot, and you know he gets overshadowed by the
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: Colton Lens and Brady Ackerman and those guys. But I
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: mean he's a two way, four year starter both sides
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: of the ball. Just one of those guys that is,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: you know, it does all the things that you really
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: really love. And and he spelled Colton at running back
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: a little bit, which was which was huge.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 4: He kind of started doing that last year.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: He's did a little bit this year, and and but
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: he had a great game offensively, But a big thing
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: that had up and two is right before halftime, they're
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: driving down, driving down, driving down. They get they get
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: a first down with like seventeen seconds to go, and
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: they're at the one yard line.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: I think Evan Bravo caught like a thirteen yard pass.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: They get down to the one yard line, so it
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: stops the clocks onmove the chains or just the one
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: stick I guess if it's first and goal at to
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: one and they put the ball down and they just
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: snap it again and give it to Colton and he
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: scores with ten seconds left in the half. And that
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: was a huge play because you know, I mean, you're
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: now you're up by two touchdowns and you get that
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: momentum at halftime, and uh then you come out and
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: you know, it's kind of back and forth a little bit,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: and then Noksack is forced to punt and you're thinking, okay, Elsie's.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: Got a little bit momentum here.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: They're getting the ball back pretty good spot, probably around midfield,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: and they go down and score. Then it's a one
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: score game. And plus with Nooksack missing the extra point
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: on the third touchdown, you can get that you can
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: get a little bit of that back. And the col
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: Bauman punt.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 4: Was high, very high, but not very deep, and.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: The LC returner kind of ran into the fray to
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: try to catch it and he drops it and so
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: Nook sac falls on it and that you know, that's
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: a huge play.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean then when that happens, that really changed
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 4: big time.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: And then you go down and I was like, right
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: after that, Colton runs a you know, he gets a
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: thirty five yard touchdown run and it was a play
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: where you know, stiff armed a guy, spun out of
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: a tackle, stiff armed another guy and it's touchdown. And
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: then now you're really kind of like, oh man, here
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: we go. And almost the entire fourth quarter was just
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: one long drive by the Pioneers at the end, and
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 2: it was just so fitting with that big offensive line
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: and you know you're featuring Colton Lens. I mean, he
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 2: probably carried the ball ten to twelve times on that
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: drive alone. He finishes it off with the fifteen yard
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: touchdown run. Kind of puts the exclamation point on it.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: Nikzac Valley wins their first outright conference championship since two
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: thousand and eight.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: Really just a great job by them. I you know,
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: it's a it's it's it's it's crazy, and and to
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: get him by that much was pretty surprising, I think.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: And LC's though, I mean, there's still gonna be a
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: tough out in the playoffs.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 4: But what a what a great game by two great teams.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: For Knicksack Valley three hundred and fifty one yards two
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: thirteen on the ground, one thirty eight through the air,
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 3: Lennon Christian two nineteen overall, fifty eight on the ground,
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: one sixty one through the air. Colton Lenz you mentioned
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: at five touchdown runs forty three one, one thirty five
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: and fifteen on the night, thirty four carries two hundred
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: and sixteen yards. I mean, that is just as Yeoman's work,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like that is just that's
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: that's a guy putting, you know, putting the team on
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: his back and just saying, let's go boys. Yep. Evan
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: Brown twelve completions, one hundred and thirty eight yards. Obviously
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: no touchdown passes because Colton Lenz was hogging at all.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: Uh Cory only eight eight catches hundred and ten yards.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 3: Evan Bravo three for twenty six for l c Chris
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 3: Coyman eleven carries thirty one yards, Eli Mayberry fifteen completions
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 3: for one hundred and sixty one yards, and the three
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 3: yard touchdown pass to Trey Bosman. Trey Bosman five catches
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: fifty seven yards. Yeah, I mean, this is I mean, Tyler,
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 3: if I'm going to say it, let's just be honest here.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 3: This might be the game where the scoreboard matches the
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: yards and everything kind of perfectly. But yeah, how about
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 3: on the defensive side, Tyler, what happened over there?
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 4: I have some good stuff here. I thought Lance Van
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 4: Burkham played a great game defensive.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: He had seven tackles, a tackle for loss, a quarterback sack,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: and he did a lot. I don't keep track of
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: hurries or pressures or whatever you want to call him,
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: but he had a handful of him and that was
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: huge because they play with a three man line and
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: so you're trying to get through and cause some damage there.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: And I thought he just did a great job, as
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: did Adlie Whitworth from the nose tackle spot. He had
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: five tackles, He had a quarterback sack as well, own
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: some speed running down Maybury at the end of the game,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: Colton Lentz, you know, seven and a half tackles and
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: another forced fumble. I think he might lead the counting
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 2: forced fumbles. The ball did go out of bounds, but
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: he did force fumble there. He's just been playing great.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: Colby Martin he also had seven and a half tackles.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: Evan Bravo did a good job. He'd knocked down a
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: couple passes. He had six tackles, and there was you know,
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: I kind of thought a lot was gonna be on
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: his plate as the corner, probably matching up with Boyce Robertson.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: Robertson only had the two catches, so his season low
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 2: for the year. So a big, you know, big time
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: game for Evan Bravo. I think he really stepped up
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: and played very well on the LC side of things.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: I can't say enough good things about Trason Johnson. I
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: think that you know, he would be when the year started,
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: he was kind of a halfway inside linebacker, halfway nose tackle.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 4: He play a little bit here, play a little bit.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: There, and it was just kind of, you know, where
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: is he gonna fit wherever we need him type thing,
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: and then he just kind of solidified himself on the
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: defensive line, and he's been playing great.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 4: Eight tackles, two sad Uh.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: Just he just really gets after it and and just
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun to see him blossom in that
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: spot and hold on to it.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 4: Hallis Owen's been playing great as a linebacker.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: He's given up some carries to some just to some
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: other guys, but he's found a home next to Trey
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: Bosman as an inside land backer. He had nine tackles,
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: a tackle for loss, pass broken up uh. Cayden Veldman
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: the sophomore, he had six tackles. He had a tackle
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: for loss past pass broken up Uh, Trey Bosman again
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: of course, a plane hurt, six tackles, had another tackle
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: for loss. Chris Coyman had six tackles, a pass broken up.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: So a lot of a lot of good things. Though,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: you know, having to tackle colt Leans over and over again,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: that's a that's a that's a tall task.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: But those LC guys.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: Were up for it and and they did. They did
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: as well as they could and it was it was
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: a great battle.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 3: Nuksack Valley won a Northwest Conference champions thirty two to
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 3: seven over Lynnon Christian. Both teams will move on and
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 3: uh play. This coming weekend, Nuksack Valley will host Lakeside
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 3: of Nine Mile Falls, a rematch of the semi finals
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 3: last year. Lakeside they did come over once already this year,
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 3: I believe to play Lenny Christian.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 4: Right, Yes, it was on a Saturday. Lenny Christian got
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 4: him pretty good.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then Kingsway Christian they are coming to town
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 3: to take on Linden Christians. So a couple of Christian
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 3: schools they're meeting up in that one. So, uh yeah,
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: we'll have more about that later on in the week. Tyler,
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 3: this is where we get to pretend like we recorded
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 3: this all along, what we kind of mentioned it earlier.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 3: What we're gonna do right now is splice in a
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 3: little a little segment where Tyler and I talk about
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 3: the Monday night game. Humistic segment, Yeah, futuristic segment here
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 3: the tiebreaker between Meridian Nooks at or excuse me, Meridian
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: Mount Baker and Blaine out at Blaine High School. So
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 3: future Ryland, future Tyler, h take it away. Alrighty, thank
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: you Ryland and Tyler for that intro. Nice guys there, Tyler,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: aren't they? Yeah?
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 4: Great guys, great guys.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm not one to try to pump anybody's tires,
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 3: but those guys do a phenomenal, phenomenal job. Tyler. It
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: is Monday night and it is approximately ten forty nine
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: pm as we do this. I had a sophomore game tonight.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 3: We lost to oday's JV team. They had a lot
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 3: of juniors. Man, they were big and physical. But you
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 3: know what, our boys, they fought hard. They fought hard.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, Tyler, we were down twenty
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 3: going into the fourth quarter and Lee put you this way,
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: we had an on side kick to try to get
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: the ball back to go win it. So yeah, we
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 3: did our thing. Yeah, anyway, Tyler, a little kind of
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: I don't even know what you call it, a shortened
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: double header out there at Blaine High School tonight. Yeah,
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, how about this, Tyler, before we even get
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: into the games. Uh, the set the scene for me.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 3: You know a lot of fans. What was going on
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 3: out there?
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 2: I got out there about five point thirty and you know,
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: it's still a lot of people coming in. I go
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: through this kind of side gate, so I'm not at
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: the entrance there, and uh, but it was a yeah, right,
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: but there was a steady flow. I was kind of
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: nervous and excited all the same time because I was
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: going to do a live stream and it's been a
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: while since i'd done that, and I don't have a
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: roster on me or anything. But I figured, you know,
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 2: I used to live stream these games all the time,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: and I'd be running up and down the sidelines. I
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: was in a lot better shape back then, That's why.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: But yeah, but I figured that, you know, they're only
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: on to play on one side of the field. This
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: can't be too hard. I should be able to just
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 2: live stream from the same place for most of the time.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 2: And and you know, and this in this kind of environment.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: They're not going to give it to some JV kid
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: they just brought up, so I should know all the
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: players and and uh, you know what I was told
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 2: when I got there from an official was that they
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: weren't gonna they weren't going to decide, like on the
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: coin flip, one of the options was not going to
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: be what side to the field they're going to play
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: this on. I was already going to be on the
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: scoreboard side.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah that makes sense period.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So that was already think but What was unique
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: about it was that the wind was blowing right in
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 2: the face of all the offenses that we're.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: Going to be playing. Oh of course.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: So that was and I'm talking and there was a
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: wind advisory today, like it was a pretty serious wind.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 2: And so I thought this could be unique because you
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: and I both know how important the kicking game is
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: in any kind of overtime or can't see typebreak or whatever.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 3: Points are at a premium at that point, right.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's like making extra points are huge, or
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: making a field goal is huge. So I thought this
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: is going to be interesting. So I got there and
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: you know, Mount Baker was warming up on one side,
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 2: Blaine was running sprints on the other side.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 4: And it was unique because.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: Blaine had their away jerseys on, which was kind of goofy,
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 2: you know, and they stood on the away sideline which
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 2: used to be the home sideline back when the stands
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: were on the other side of the field when it
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: was a grass field, and it just it had a
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: kind of a unique feel to it. And I was
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: kind of looking around. I was like, man, am I
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 2: the only media person out here? And then but I
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: was so and then once I started about five minutes
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 2: early I started the live stream. I was kind of
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: explaining everything, the rules and all that stuff, and all
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: of a sudden I look in the back of the end
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: zone and everybody's there, you know, of course, so, but
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 2: it was it was cold.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 4: I wore pants, which is unique.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: I had a little PTSD about two years ago when
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 2: that was like the rainiest coldest uh you know, Kansas
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: tiebreaker I'd ever been to. It was at the same stadium.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 2: I kind of had that feel again. But it wasn't
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: rainy at all. It was just really windy, pretty cold.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: A lot of people said, boy, it must be cold
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: if tylers were in pants, and uh, and it was. Uh,
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: and it was. It was crazy, but the fans were
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 2: into it. You could you could kind of look up
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: there and you could see the colors. Yeah, you can
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: see right right in the middle had a lot of
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 2: orange and black. To the right had a lot of
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: black and gold. To the left had a lot of
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: black and red. So a lot of black.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: That's kind of funny. I never thought about that.
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it looked really cool, like it almost looked like,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: you know, like you play like a video game, like
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 2: a college football video game, and they have like the
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 2: one session of the way team. That's kind of what
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 2: it looked like. You could really see this the colored
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: differences in the crowd.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: Watching Florida Georgia game on Saturday. Yeah, and it's funny
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 3: how they literally split it right down the middle of
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 3: the end. Yes, right, Yeah, Like I kind of forgot
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: about it until I saw somebody kicking a field goal.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: I was I just started cracking up because I'm thinking
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 3: to myself, like, like, there's a decent little chunk of
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: people right there that have to sit next to an
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: opposing fan. Other than that, nobody does.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and yeah it's aesthetically it looks really cool.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and Texas and Oklahoma do the same thing, you know. Yeah.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: So yeah, so it was it was a it was
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 2: a great atmosphere, and it's just has that tense feeling
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 2: because you know, like I do, like one little mistake
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: and you're not going to postseason, or one big play
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 2: and you are going to the postseason or whatever. So
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: so yeah, that was kind of the feel when I
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 2: got there.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, interceptions are always exciting and stuff like this,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 3: like an interception or a fumble is just complete mayhem.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, because it could add to everything, right, Like,
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's it's cool. But uh so we
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 3: start off Blaine mount Baker, Tyler mount Baker. They are
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: well versed in this. They were in one just a
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: couple of years ago. Yeah, tell it. I mean, here's
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: the thing. At this point, I know who won the night.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: I don't know anything that happened. I mean literally, I
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 3: don't anything that happened other than Lepp gave me a
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: shout out. That's all I know. So Tyler tell it
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 3: to me. Blaine mount Baker. What went on there? Well,
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 3: you know, they go out with a coin flip and.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure Baker won it because I would imagine
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 2: you want to go second, and they did. So Blaine
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: had the ball first and and here we go, I
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: mean first and ten from the twenty five and we're
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 2: going and it was it was you know, basically a
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 2: lot of I don't think they put the ball in
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 2: near once. It was Jade and Piaz and Colin Davis
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: running the ball.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 3: You know, you give it to Jay and Piaz.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: He had one big run it might have been thirteen
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 2: yards or so, but Colin Davis ran really well.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 4: They would send.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: Piaz out in motion out to the side and try
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 2: to open something up for Davis to run in the
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 2: middle from shotgun. I mean he's taking the snap and
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: just going and then all of a sudden it's you know,
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: it's first in goal and Blaine is running. They're looking great.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: You know, they're running, just running the ball and just
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: doing what they do. I mean, that's that's what they're
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: built to do. And they got they got right down
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: there and inside the five, and I kind of thought
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: maybe Davis would come up, you'd run up under center
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: and take a quick snap and go, but they usually
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: don't do that unless they're inside the two, and I
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 2: think they were like at the three or so, and
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 2: he just took the direct snap and went into the
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: end zone touchdown. I mean, it was blight. I was
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: probably you know, five or six plays maybe something like that.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: Like I said, there was one big long run by
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 2: pie As he ran right at me on the camera,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: which was cool. I appreciated. That probably made for a
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 2: good good shot. And they go out to kick the
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: extra point. Logan villa Rial goes out there. He's probably
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: probably like eighty five ninety percent extra point guy, and
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 2: he kicked it. It was right down the middle, and
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 2: the craziest thing happened. That ball went through the uprights,
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 2: went up, and then fell straight down. It did go
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 2: through the uprights, but it hit that wind and it
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 2: almost looked like it was gonna get pushed back through
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 2: the uprights backwards. But if just the ball just fell
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: straight down, and it was kind of you could kind
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: of hear some whoo from the crowd like that was unique.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: I don't know how well I caught it on the
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 2: live stream or not, but it was.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 3: It was good.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 2: So you got seven zero all of a sudden. I mean,
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: it's quick turnaround. Now it's Baker's dream. Baker goes out
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: the twenty five yard line. First play, give it to
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: Dylan Moe up the middle, he runs it to the
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: he runs it to the one yard line on the
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 2: first play. Wow, so Baker's now jacked up. I mean,
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 2: they're feeling great. And next play, give it a Dylan
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: Moa a touchdown, and just like that, it's seven to six.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: They line up for an extra point, call timeout. Baker
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 2: calls time out. I found out and I didn't know this.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: I think I even said during the livestream that I
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 2: believe you get two timeouts, but I found out later
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: you only get one time out, and.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 3: Baker used it.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: At that point, everybody runs off to the you know,
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: to the sideline, and I'm thinking, okay, this is interesting
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 2: because if you go for two here, that's you know,
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: that's a lot of guts. And and so they come
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: back out and I don't see Enoch Smith coming out.
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: I don't see Darius Gilstrap the holder coming out. I
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, oh, they're feeling they're feeling themselves right now.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, they just scored on two plays and right
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: up the middle, and they come out there and kel
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: Reard and grabs the grabs the t and throws it
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: to the sideline. I'm like, here we go. This is
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is it. I mean, if
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: you get it, you win. If you don't, you lose.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 3: Here we go, boys.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And and all of a sudden, Blaine just clogs
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 2: the middle and you know, I talked to coach Lip
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 2: about it later, but that he did not feel good
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: about that. With the Blake all you already use your
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 2: one time out?
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And they give it.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 2: To Dila Moo up the middle and he powered through
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: and scored that two point conversion. I mean it was
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: you know, you got to give it to Blaine. They
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 2: were probably I mean, they played great, they went right
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 2: down and scored.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 4: They did exactly what they're supposed to do.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they gave up a score.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: But then, you know, how rare is it that on
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 2: the first first overtime, the other the second team goes
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: for two.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 3: You know, my goodness, it was. I mean, that's part
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 3: of why you want the ball second though, right.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 4: Like exactly, because you know what you need.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 3: To do exactly, and you can you get to make
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 3: decisions like that they don't absolutely.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 2: And so with that, and just like that, it was over.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 2: The first the first game was over, and Baker's succel.
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: You know, they're celebrating. They run into the locker room
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 2: because they got to change. They got to go from
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: the black jerseys to the white.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 6: Jerseys, and uh and and Blaine's walking off, and all
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 6: of a sudden, on the far side of the field,
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 6: you see Meridian running around getting warmed up, and and.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: Uh so, yeah, so Baker took that first one.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 3: Little twenty minute break. The live stream shuts down for
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 3: a few minutes, and then uh you kick her back
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 3: on Tyler and we get Meridian and mout Bakery, they
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 3: are ready to go, and uh, it's always one of
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 3: those things. I don't know if there's an advantage to, oh,
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 3: we did play, so maybe we have just a little
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 3: bit more juice, or if there's an advantage to, hey
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 3: we won this first one, we got all the juice,
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 3: you know. But yeah, Mount Baker, Meridian.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so Baker comes out and there are away jerseys.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: You know, Meridian probably only brought the black ones. Blaine
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: was already wearing their white ones. So so Baker was
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: the one team I think. I mean, you know, the
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: Blaine's at home, they could probably go grab their other ones.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: But so yeah, so here we go, and and you're
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 2: right about that. And I asked a few different coaches,
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: and I've got I got varying things, just just just
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: going into it. Would you rather be the team that
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 2: gets to play in the second game no matter what,
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: or would you rather take your chances in the first
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 2: one and try to, you know, you ride the momentum.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 2: And I think I asked like seven different coaches, and
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 2: I think five of them said they'd rather be the
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: second team. Which I understand what they're saying because you're
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 2: automatically going to play in the second game.
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 3: But still, yeah, I mean at that point, you're a
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 3: fifty to fifty.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, So I get that, but I see what
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 2: you're saying too, because you're riding some momentum. Yeah, you know,
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: it may and it might be well, depends if we
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: have a break or not, or how long is the
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: break or whatever.
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, if you're Blaine, you probably would have
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 3: rather played in the second game, right, like, yeah, exactly.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 2: So So anyways, now it was flipped, Baker was going
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: to have the ball first, so I'm ready and probably
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 2: won the toss, I'm guessing, And and they right out
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: the bat it was a fake to Moa and give
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 2: to bruland right around the right end. He gets a
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 2: pretty good gain right there and gets a first down
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 2: pretty early on in that. And I remember them having
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 2: a first and goal at the ten, and I kind
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 2: of thought, Oh, that's tough, because you know, you're right
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: there at the ten, like you would have loved to
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: gotten a first down in the first and goal like
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: the six or seven, you know what I mean, especially
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 2: with especially you're gonna it's four downs at this point.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 4: The wins in your face, and.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, Baker's power football. So it's
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: nice to have four downs to get six or seven
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 2: yards out of ten. But then it just became, you know,
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: power football. Give it to Dila Moa, you know. And
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: they just kept doing it. They kept getting a few
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 2: yards here and there. I remember they were at like
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: the three or four and and it was a play
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: where they gave it to Dila Moa right up the
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: middle and then and but it looked I mean, you know,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 2: there's so much slight of hand. It's hard to tell
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 2: exactly what happened right at right in the moment, but
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: they had Sean Duggart, the wing back, was coming around
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 2: and they faked it to him, and it was like,
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 2: oh my goodness, you would have handed it to him.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 4: He would have walked in.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 2: But they but they had already handed the ball off
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 2: and they got down to the one, and I think
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 2: at that point it was fourth and goal at the one.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: And I'm not one hundred percent sure. I'm trying to
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 2: remember if they called a timeout at at that moment.
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 4: But you know, you go for it.
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know it you're having the ball first,
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: it's fourth and goal at the one. You're probably not
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: going to kick a field goal in that wind, so
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: you're gonna go for it. They line up and they
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 2: give it to Mow up the middle, and he scores
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: and and uh so then I'm now, I'm kind of
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: curious what they're gonna do here for you know, for
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: the point after.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 4: And they do elect to go for one.
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 3: They were there. Smith kicked him.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: He was about seven for seven in the pre game
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 2: for the second game, you know, really kicking into the
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: wind and trying to get it. And he made all
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 2: Like I said, he made all seven of them, but
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: they were the wind was really pushing, but he was
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 2: getting a good feel for it. They tried him out there,
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: the freshman, a lot of pressure on him.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 3: He makes it.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 2: So, okay, you're up seven zero Meridians ball now and
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: now and now you're I'm picking the back of my mind. Okay, now,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: if Meridian gets down there, are they going to go
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 2: for two? I mean there's so many things that and
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: Meridians one of those teams that they do some unique stuff,
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: you know on extra points. I mean like the kind
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 2: of like the they did, like the they'd bring the
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 2: tea out, but they'd be in like in a spread
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 2: formation with Trey Alexander at quarterback who happens to be
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 2: the holder, and Landing Down at tailback who happens to
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: be the kicker. And you know they at one time
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 2: they just snapped it and gave it a Downy and
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 2: he scored. But if they don't see what they if
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 2: they see something they don't like, they just bring everyone
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: in and they kick the extra point. So I was thinking, man,
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: what are they gonna do? And they're really unique with
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 2: their play calling. So they come out. Nice to see
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: Kelly Gray playing. He missed the game on Thursday, so
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: gave the ball to him. On the first play, he
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: gets a yard. They give the ball to Downey on
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: the second play, he gets a yard and then okay,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 2: he got third and eight. Now the twenty three yard line.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: Baker crowd is rumbling, it's going crazy. Then they did
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 2: like a quick screen to the right side. You can
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: see a bunch of linemen come out, and they did
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 2: a quick screen to Downy.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 4: You know, their best guy.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: He catches it, you know, but the Baker was all
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: over it. And I think they got maybe three yard
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: on that something like that. So now you end up
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 2: with like a fourth and five, fourth and four something
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 2: around there, and there was you know, there was motion.
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 2: There was a lot of swaying to the left. They
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 2: do a tight end screen to the right. Baker was
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 2: all over it. They tackled James head All and there
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 2: was no first down.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 3: That was it.
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was just it's so crazy how it
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 2: can be just done so fast like that and and.
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 4: All of a sudden, Baker.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: It just had that feeling of two years ago where
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 2: like everyone kind of counted them out. They were, you know,
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 2: below five hundred. I mean when they lost that game
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 2: to le Center a couple of years ago, they were like,
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know what they were at that point one four.
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, it was not looking good.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: Baker started out the year this year four and oh,
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: but they started leak play oh and.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 3: Three yep out of four games.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 2: So there there's no way they're thinking, oh, yeah, we
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: still have a shot or whatever. And then you know,
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 2: Blame's Meridian and they allows them play and now look
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: what happens, and and it was crazy. It was it
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 2: was chaos. We both loved the chaos. Uh, it was
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 2: it was exciting. I was able to get a live
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 2: interview with coach Leap right after the game and and yeah,
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 2: so now they play at Zilla.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and we assume that's going to be a Saturday game.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 3: But honestly, we don't know anything at the moment. But
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 3: as soon as we have it, you know, well I'm
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 3: sure it'll get out there, but we'll have it on
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 3: the on the preview podcast that we record Wednesday night
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 3: comes out Thursday morning, so just keep an eye out
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 3: out for that. And I mean you could just subscribe
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 3: to the podcast. That's one way to do it. But boom,
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 3: all right, Tyler, any last words before we send it
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 3: back to Ryland and Tyler.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I think I really want to give
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 2: props to Blame and Meridian. I mean, those were awesome teams.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 2: Those are two teams that finished above five hundred and
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: they're not going to get into the postseason when there's
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 2: some far lesser teams that are and that's just kind
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 2: of the way that it is right now, and that's
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 2: it's just a tough conference. And I hope that both
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 2: of them will schedule Week ten games. I know Bellingham
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: was out there and they're hoping to schedule one of
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: the two teams that didn't make it going in. Just
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: didn't care who it was. They just want to play
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: a Week ten game against another Walkam County team. So
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: I think that's pretty cool. Hopefully one of them will
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: connect with Bellingham and get that game in, and hopefully
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 2: the other one will get another game as well, because
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 2: they are a lot of fun to watch, and I
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 2: hope these seniors get one last shot of just playing
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 2: and before we send them on their way with our
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 2: little senior shoot or shout out podcasts. So great, great
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 2: season by them, Baker, Hey, you deserve this.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 4: This was huge.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 2: It's not how you start, it's how you finished all
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 2: that jazz. So good job for them, and and it's
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 2: gonna be a tough task.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Tyler. One of the things, you know, you said
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 3: it like there's teams that are far lesser that are
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: still playing. And I mean, i'll just say it. Klahowia
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 3: they're playing at Royal this weekend and they lost their
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 3: last three games forty nine nothing, fifty eight nothing, fifty
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 3: five nothing to Life Christian on Alaska and See and
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 3: Cascade Christian. I mean, don't get me wrong, those are
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 3: three good football programs, but right any of the three
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 3: that played tonight would have absolutely had a chance to
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 3: win any all three of those games, you know what
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 3: I mean. And Klahowia is a team that's getting in.
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's a couple other ones that are getting
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 3: in that I look at and I'm just like, that's
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: going to be a seventy point game, you know what
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 3: I mean. And there's no doubt in my mind that
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 3: any of the three we're talking about could go over
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 3: and play Royal and you know, at least give them
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 3: a game, you know, give them a game.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that, you know, with Telvie Christian
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 2: dropping their program, and I don't know if there's enough
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: you know, there wasn't enough teams for them to quantify
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 2: having around a thirty two. And I wonder if there
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 2: would have been if they would have taken four from
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 2: the Northwest Conference. I'm just curious. I don't know.
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 3: I think I don't think it would have been, yeah,
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 3: because it would have been really tough for them to
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 3: pull that off. Four out of five is really hard
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 3: to do, you know what I mean, When you've only
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 3: got five, it's really hard to justify giving four to
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 3: any to any anybody, you know what I mean. So, yeah,
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 3: I mean even you know, the GSHL down South with
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 3: Union and Skyview and Camas and Battleground four schools, they
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 3: only get two and a lot of years they could
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 3: easily justify three. Easy, Yeah, I mean a lot of years. Union,
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 3: Skyview and Camus are three the top ten teams in
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 3: the state. Yeah, and they too. Yeah, you know, it's
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 3: just tough. But you know, hey, if I'm being honest,
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 3: I'm just glad they even get three. Yeah, you know,
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, with with so few teams, you know, only
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 3: twenty four, wouldn't have surprised me if they would have
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 3: found a way to only give them two. So yeah, yeah,
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 3: Mount Baker excited for that one. I mean, that's it's
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 3: gonna be a fun one. We'll talk more about that
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 3: game on the on the Thursday podcast, so be sure
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 3: to subscribe to the podcast. Yeah, he's Tyler, I'm Ryland.
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 3: We now send it back to Tyler and Ryland as
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 3: they finish off the week nine recap. So uh yeah,
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 3: back to you guys. All righty, thank you to future
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 3: Ryland and future Tyler. Now, Tyler, this is the funny thing,
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 3: and we didn't really talk about this the rest of
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 3: the podcast. We're going to talk about it, not knowing
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 3: what the heck is going on.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so if you're listening, just please be aware that
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 2: we're jumping back and forth in our DeLorean and yeah,
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: and just try to try to hold on and keep
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 2: on track the best you can.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So basically, for the rest of the way out here,
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 3: pretend like that Monday night tiebreaker thing you just heard
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 3: hadn't happened, because as far as Tyler and I know,
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 3: it hasn't. So let's go to what do we got here? Pickhams. Tyler,
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 3: you are leading, well, you're leading us, you're leading the
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 3: Oh no, I guess you're.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 4: Not not anymore.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 3: No, not anymore. You had a bad week. You went
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 3: four and three this week, Mikayla five and two, Jeff
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 3: four and three, myself, I went five and two. Of
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 3: all people real life, Joe Consensus Kevin six goes six
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 3: and one. I mean, I guess we should have seen
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 3: that one coming. And then Joe Consensus himself is five
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 3: and two. Now, oddly enough, Joe Consensus and Joe Consensus
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 3: Kevin six are both now fifty seven and sixteen on
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 3: the air. So if I didn't confuse you before, you
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 3: got to be confused now, because even I'm confused. This
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 3: is one of those ones where I should probably say
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 3: something like great googly booglely and then you know, Nita Stickers, right,
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 3: Tyler on the year, Tyler, you are fifty five and eighteen.
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 3: Mikayla fifty two and twenty one, Jeff is fifty four
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 3: and nineteen. I am fifty four and nineteen, and then
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 3: Kevin six the guests, if you will, fifty seven and sixteen.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 3: Joe consensus, fifty seven and sixteen. So yeah, we will
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 3: continue that going as long as there are Watkin County
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 3: teams left.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 4: So absolutely.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 2: And if you're wondering if Kevin's last real last name
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: is six, it is, but it was shortened.
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 3: He said, what do you think it actually was? Like
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 3: like like, first off, do you first off, do you
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 3: know what it was? Yes? Okay, well then that's not fair.
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 4: Uh it was no, it was seven.
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 3: Okay, So is this a joke from him or yes,
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 3: it's a joke and it's hilarious. I was hoping it'd
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 3: be something like sixty and he shortened it to six.
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 2: No, it's funnier when you shorten it from seven.
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know that's. Oh, that's a low hanging
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 3: frue joke. I don't know. I prefer I prefer, you know,
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 3: Ron white Stuff.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 2: He used to say, Yeah, sixteen, he used to say that,
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 2: and I said, well, that's that's easy. But if you
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 2: say it shortened from seven, that's clever.
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 3: Now if it was sixteen, Tyler, did he take out
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 3: the one before or the team after?
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 4: Exactly?
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Now that's a heck a question right there. Yeah.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 2: I think he might have a Seahawks jersey that says
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 2: his name Kevin on the back and the number six.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: Does he actually I think he does? Well, I mean,
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 3: does he or does he not? You know him?
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 2: Well, I think he might be getting one for Christmas.
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 3: Oh well, he's probably not listening anyway, that's true. Wait,
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 3: hold on, does this still do that? I don't worry.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 3: Nobody's listening anyway, it does, all right, Tyler, let's talk
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 3: players of the week. Here Offensively is brought to you
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 3: by Phoenix Coffee. You can find them at eleven bell
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 3: weather Way Sweet one oh four in Bellingham. Three six
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 3: zero seven to one five one zero five zero is
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 3: the phone number. Tyler, who is the Phoenix Coffee Offensive
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 3: Player of the week.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 2: This Since we've had this award, there has never been
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 2: a week like this where so many players had these
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 2: crazy offensive weeks. I mean you look at Andre Watson,
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 2: you look at Isaiah Audman, you look at Brent Hepner,
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 2: you look at Jayden Piez, you look at Tallon bung Guard,
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 2: look at Colton.
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 4: Lentz, I mean Cory Only.
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 2: There's so many players had these these career games, and
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 2: after some close consideration, We're gonna go with Colton Lentz
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 2: from Nuksack Valley. I think winning the conference championship is
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 2: a lot. You score, every single touchdown that your team
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: had is a lot. Thirty carrying the ball thirty four
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 2: times is a lot. It's a career high for him.
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 2: It's crazy because I think back at his freshman year
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 2: when he was he wasn't the starting running back, but
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 2: he was inserted to play starting running back his freshman
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 2: year because I think it was one of the Silva
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 2: I think it was Jordan Silva was out from COVID
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 2: and they had to play at else and they had
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 2: Kate Eldridge and it was just it was just a
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 2: you know, Elsie won like forty one nothing. But Colton
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 2: carried the ball twenty seven times for like eighty four yards,
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 2: and I thought, man, that kid is tough, and it's
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 2: so funny how it's that exact field where that was
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 2: where he got his first start and then now full
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 2: circle last conference game start and the game that he
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 2: had just it was unreally he put the whole team
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 2: on his back.
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 3: The Defensive Player of the Week is brought to you
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 3: by Max Hair Studio. You can find them in Bellis
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 3: Fair Mall give him a call. Three six zero six
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 3: seven to one, sixteen twenty seven Tyler who is the
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 3: Max Hair Studio Defensive Player of the Week.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, again, this was a few places to go. I mean,
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 2: kel Rierdon had another great week and he just won
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 2: it last week. You know, I thought Logan Villa Rial
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 2: did really well. Zach Watt had the two interceptions. Lockey's
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 2: always a good guest or a good pick there.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 4: But I'm going with Landon Downey from Meridian.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 2: I know that they gave up a lot of rushing yards,
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 2: but he individually played really really well and this is
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 2: an individual award. He had ten tackles, two tackles for loss,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: and a quarterback sack. When he gets going, he plays
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 2: differently out there than a lot of other guys, and yeah,
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 2: he just had a great, great game defensively. So Landon
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 2: Downy for Meridian is your Max Hair Studio Defensive Player
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 2: of the Week.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 3: The Special Teams Player of the Week is brought to

• 1:35:22
  Speaker 3: realestate dot com. Tyler who is the pets at real
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: Estate Special Teams Player of the Week.
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna give it to Ferndale's senior Lincoln Thomas,
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 2: just kind of going under the radar as like mister
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 2: automatic on extra points. You know what's crazy is you
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 2: know I do all the different stats, I don't keep
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: track of like extra point percentages. I just for some reason,
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 2: I just don't. I've never kept track of attempts. And
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 2: I think it's because back in the day, when it
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 2: would say kick failed, you don't know who attempted to kick, Yeah,
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 2: like it could have been somebody else. I don't know that.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 2: So I never wanted to keep that stat just in
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 2: case I don't. I could be wrong, So but I mean,
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 2: I could be doing it now because I'm watching on
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 2: the game film. I just it's just one of those
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 2: things I haven't latched onto. But I would imagine that
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 2: he has the best percentage. He went seven for seven again,
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 2: he did. He was seven for seven last week. He
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 2: goes seven for seven again here against Shorewood.
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 4: And this is the kid that.
• 1:36:17
