UNDATED – Last Friday was a tough night for the Port Angeles and Sequim high school football teams. Sequim lost 36-21 to a North Mason team that had not won a game. The Bulldogs were last in the league in offense at 9 ppg but scored 36 points on a Wolves defense that is getting low in numbers with injuries. Faas Christianson was voted the Firehouse Grill Player of the game for his play on defense. Now all the Wolves have to do is go to Poulsbo to take on state power North Kitsap.
It was no better for the Roughriders as they were shut out by Bainbridge 31-0. The Roughriders have not scored an offensive touchdown since the Sequim game 4 weeks ago. The Roughriders now take on a 2-5 Kingston team that actually played Olympic pretty tough. The Roughriders kickoff against Kingston Friday night at 6:30 pm for “Senior Night”. The Roughriders end their season the following Friday night at North Mason. Both games will be broadcast live on KONP radio.
