BAINBRIDGE — It was another tough night for local high school football teams. Sequim fell on the road to Bainbridge, 42–32, while Port Angeles was shut out at home by Bremerton, 21–0.
The Wolves had no trouble putting points on the board, but Bainbridge — averaging just 12 points per game coming in — found unexpected offensive firepower behind quarterback Rowen Meek. Meek carried 27 times for 160 yards and three touchdowns, using a mix of shotgun sweeps, draws, and read options to carve up the Sequim defense. The Spartans are a young team, with several sophomores in starting roles.

Last Friday, North Mason led league champion Olympic 15–0 at halftime, but the Trojans stormed back to win 18–15 after a big second half. The Sequim game will be broadcast here on KONP Newsradio.
Sequim seniors Zeke Schmadeke and Liam Wiker will suit up for their final home game Thursday night when the Wolves host North Mason.
