Greg Picks 5 Must-See Prep Games

In his NWPrepsNow column, Greg Lee picks his 5 must-see High school must-see games this year, including:

  • Skyline at Coeur d’Alene , Sept. 13, 7. You can be sure that the Vikings have this game highlighted on their schedule. Not that there’s any reason for revenge. Skyline, behind ultra-talented quarterback Max Browne (now at USC), picked CdA apart 71-20 at the Kibbie Dome last year. What the Viks want to show is last year was an aberration. Still, they’re going against the two-time Washington 4A state champ which has captured seven state titles overall in the last decade. The Spartans graduated a talented senior class. The Seattle Times ranked Skyline third in their preseason poll. Kilton Anderson, a senior transfer from Naples, Fla., has been named Browne’s replacement.
  • Coeur d’Alene at Lake City , Oct. 25, 7: The 5A Inland Empire League receives just one playoff berth and this will be the game that decides the champion. CdA is seeking a third state title in the last four years. LC wants to extend its playoff appearance streak to 17. The Viks will be heavily favored, but anything can happen in a rivalry.
  • Greg Lee vs. KHQ sports director Sam Adams in weekly Pick 6 contest.
