The Prep Blog
The preps blog is designed to fill in the gaps of our high school sports coverage, providing insight into some of the stories and projects we are pursuing, and to serve as a forum to talk about some of the significant high school sports stories happening in our community.

Covering high school sports in Tacoma, Pierce County and the South Sound.

Central Kitsap scored the biggest upset with its 14-10 win at second-ranked Olympia. Cougars running back Howard McDonald scored the go-ahead touchdown and finished with 129 yards on the ground. If you're keeping track, that gives McDonald 525 rushing yards in the postseason.

Central Kitsap will host No. 9 Rogers, which throttled Skyview, 55-30. My pick of the Rams reaching the semifinals is looking pretty good right now...

Bothell's 42-3 win over Curtis showed just how good the KingCo Conference is. This is a Cougars team that has lost three games to league foes and plastered the SPSL South Division champions. The Vikings surely didn't benefit by playings only one team with a winning record in the last six weeks of the regular season.

There are two HUGE matchups in the 4A quarterfinals. We've got No. 3 Auburn at No. 1 Skyline and No. 4 Ferris at No. 6 Central Valley in a Greater Spokane League showdown. The winners of those two games will meet in the semifinals.

In Class 3A, No. 2 Ferndale proved that it is deserving of its high ranking with its 42-3 win over West Seattle. The Golden Eagles' reward is a trip to No. 4 Union this week, pitting one tradition-rich team against a school that opened its doors two years ago.

Top-ranked Bellevue hosts No. 7 Liberty. The Wolverines beat the Patriots 24-7 three weeks, but this is the playoffs, so anything can happen.
