Seahawks prepare for LT and the Huskies win again
NEWS
With the Christmas weekend upon us, instead of breaking the posts into different schools or interests, I'm going to just touch on the top news stories of the day.
Actually, I'm taking some time to be with the family, and watch UCLA demolish my son's favorite team, Michigan. Which, as an aside, I've never understood, but just accept. The Bruins look like national title contenders, that's for sure.
Back in the Northwest, the biggest event this weekend probably would be the Seahawks game with San Diego. You can read features about it, with stories from the News Tribune, Times, Everett Herald and P-I.
The Huskies won last night, with our story (from AP) here and the gamers from the P-I, News Tribune and Times (along with this sidebar) available.
Otherwise, I like this prep piece about the all-state volleyball team, and this good news for prep wrestling fans.
Also, Prairie lost to Lewis and Clark in last year's 4A girls' championship game, and, though the Falcons lost some key players from last year's team, they are expected to challenge again. So the showdown at Roosevelt Friday night was worth watching. The undefeated Roughriders handed Prairie its first loss.
On the Mariners' front, the team reportedly signed former phenom – and Little League hero – Sean Burroughs to a minor-league contract.
That's (probably) it for this Saturday. I'll have something up Sunday and Christmas, but not in the usual depth.
