We have us a horse race

Three weeks into the season and Greater Spokane League football is a horse race with seven teams very much in the title race. Even Mead (1-2) and Lewis and Clark (0-2) are not out of the playoff picture, although the Tigers face a difficult road.

Central Valley - with a 13-12 win over LC, is 3-0. Mt. Spokane - one touchdown victory over Mead, is 2-0 (3-0 overall). Four others trail them by a game. Gonzaga Prep - three point winner over Ferris; University - overtime winner over the Bullpups; The Saxons - victor over Mead which last week topped the Panthers; and East Valley - winners twice over fellow 3A foes to likely move a win away from a return state berth, are all 2-1. Rogers is 1-1.

There have been upsets, close games and overtime results. Stay tuned.
