THIS WEEK’S WAFD BANK ATHLETE OF THE WEEK NOMINEES:
Cooper Christensen, Royal: Senior wide receiver caught nine passes for 210 yards and three TDs in Knights’ 50-10 win over 4A Eastmont.
MARYSVILLE – Glacier Peak senior running back Ryan Black set the tone on Saturday, scoring the Grizzlies’ first touchdown on a 10-yard run in a 35-7 non-conference win over Marysville Pilchuck.
Black also scored the game’s final touchdown in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach. In between Black’s two scores, the Grizzlies’ offense exhibited the kind of balance that figures to make them one of the top Wesco 4A teams in a wild season that began in February instead of August and will not have a postseason.
It’s been over a calendar year since the Grizzlies last played a game, but the long layoff didn’t seem to impact them against the Tomahawks, who figure to have their own share of success this season.

Having previously enjoyed great success with a preferred walk-on player from Pasadena, California, the University of Washington football program has welcomed another in Alex Froelich, a well-regarded long snapper.
On Wednesday, Froelich from Polytechnic School, or simply Poly, tweeted out his intention to join the Huskies this fall one of nearly a dozen PWOs now dotting the roster.
The 6-foot-3, 230-pound Froelich, a two-way tackle for his high school team, is a specialist who hopes to move up the ranks similar to another player without a scholarship from the Rose Bowl city.
