SEQUIM — In football action Friday night, the Sequim Wolves once again kept the good fight up until the end, giving 3rd place Bremerton a great game with the Knights winning 36-29. The Wolves end their season with a 2-7 record.
The Port Angeles Roughriders saved their best game for last blowing out North Mason 48-25. Parker Nickerson, Jason Hawes, Hunter Flores, Blake Solhberg, Josiah Long and Alex Angevine all had big nights. Alex Angevine set the tone early for the Roughriders with a circus catch for a touchdown and was named the “Firehouse Grill Player of the Game”. The Roughriders at 3-6 will have one more game. The Roughriders will play class 3A Chief Sealth this Friday night at Chief Sealth high school with the kickoff at 7:30 pm. Chief Sealth High School is located South of West Seattle and North of White Center. Chief Sealth is in the tough 3A Metro league and had a solid year with a 4-5 overall record. This is not a playoff game, and it will be the last game of the season for the Roughriders. The young Roughriders started just four seniors in their 22 first-string units Friday night, and could have a great season next year. The Roughriders will open the 2023 season with road games at Blaine and Anacortes.
