After a sluggish first quarter, the Life Christian/Seattle Christian Eagles began a high scoring second quarter with a 23-yard pass from junior quarterback Kingston Kuehner to take a 6-0 lead.

The Saints battled back to tie the game on the ensuing possession with a touchdown catch from Fred Lisko. Lisko took the Trevor Forsell pass 81-yards to even the score at six, as both teams missed their PAT conversations.

On the next play, senior wideout Drew Curry ran 81-yards on the kickoff to help the Eagles regain the lead. The elusive Curry raced down the sidelines to increase the Life Christian/Seattle Christian lead to 14-6. Again, it was the Saints who fought back driving down the field and eventually scored on a Trevor Forsell 1-yard run.

With the game tied at 14, the Eagles raced to a 12-point halftime lead after scoring a pair of touchdowns in the remaining minutes of the first half. Life/Seattle Christian’s Kameron Hutchens recorded the two touchdowns with a four-yard run and then later returning a fumble 39 yards.

The Eagles kept their distance the rest of the way as they scored five unanswered touchdowns en route to a 22-point victory.

Nooksack Valley 21 vs. Cascade Christian 34 F

Nooksack Valley         0     7     0     14     --     21
Cascade Christian     20     0     14     0     --     34

In a 2009 (1A) state semifinal rematch, it was again the Cougars who scratched out a 13-point victory in the second game of the ECKC.

Cascade Christian jumped out to a 20-point lead with a pair of touchdown tosses from quarterback Kyle Stennes. The senior gunslinger connected with Jack Archer for 14 and 19-yard touchdowns, which book-ended a Colton Faverty two-yard run.

Trailing 20-0 at the end of the first, Nooksack fought back to silence the Cougars in the second quarter, scoring a touchdown late in the second to head in the locker room trailing 20-7.

The second half seemed eerily familiar to the first as Cascade Christian utilized its ground game in the third quarter. Brendon Ossman score on a 14-yard run, then Faverty registered his second touchdown of the day with a 24-yard scamper to increase the Cougars advantage to 34-7.

Nooksack added a couple of late touchdowns with a Trevon Myhre 12-yard touchdown pass and a Bret Rediger five-yard touchdown run under the one minute mark.

Camas 29 vs. Timberline 15 F

Camas             7     0     15     7     --     29
Timberline       6     3      6     0     --     15

After a back-and-forth first half battle, the Camas Papermakers emerged as the victors with a strong second half performance to claim a 29-15 victory over the Timberline Blazers.

After failing to score on the opening drive despite moving within the ten yard line, Timberline jumped on a fumble on the one-yard line to claim an early 6-0 lead.

Camas stormed back and took the lead with a Zach Marshall two-yard run, the first of three total touchdowns. The extra-point put the Papermakers up one, but the Blazers responded as time expired in the second quarter with a Skyler Brown 20-yard field goal to give Timberline the 9-7 advantage at intermission.

The Papermakers dominated the second half as Marshall led the way for Camas with a one-yard run that was followed by a Logan Grindy successful two-point conversion pass to Addison Owen.

Timberline’s speedster Quinton Sison returned the kickoff 85 yards, but a failed kick left the game tied at 15. Two unanswered touchdowns by Camas solidified the hard fought victory. Brent Hill broke the tie with a 16-yard touchdown pass from Grindy, while Marshall’s final touchdown culminated the Camas win.

Union 6 vs. Bellevue 20 F

Union          0     6     0     0     --     6
Bellevue     0     7     7     6     --     20

With a scoreless first quarter, it appeared the fans at Qwest Field were in for a defensive battle between the 2009 3A State Football Champions Bellevue Wolverines and the 4A Union Titans.

The Wolverines ended the scoring drought in an atypical 40-yard pass from Kendrick Van Ackeren to Joey Moore late in the second quarter.

The Titans cut into the Bellevue lead just before halftime with a Tanner Nelson one-yard run, but a failed extra point kept them in the deficit.

The second half belonged to Bellevue as their defense shutout Union while they chewed up the clock with their Wing-T offense. The Wolverines opened the third quarter with a 14-play, 61-yard drive culminated by a Joey Mangialardi three-yard run. Bellevue added the finishing touches with a fourth quarter touchdown to seal the victory and improve to 2-0 all-time at the ECKC.

Mission Viejo (California) 49 vs. Bothell 13 F

Mission Viejo     7     21     14     7     --     49
Bothell               7      0       0     6     --     13

The Bothell Cougars put forth a strong first quarter and appeared poised to go toe-to-toe with one of California’s best football programs in Mission Viejo, but the Diablos second and third quarters were unmatched en route to their lopsided 49-13 victory.

Mission Viejo, making their second trip to the Emerald City after defeating an Issaquah squad 55-36 in 2005, lived up to the hype yet again as they scored 42-straight points.

The Diablos got on the scoreboard in the first, but quickly had their lead erased as Bothell’s Luke Proulx broke off two big runs and scored on a two-yard run to tie the game at seven.

However, Mission Viejo commanded the ground game and their aerial attack to take a 28-7 lead into halftime. The Cougars fell to 49-7 before scoring a late touchdown to trim the margin of defeat to 36 points.
