Burlington-Edison shuts down Shorecrest 68-48

by John on December 29, 2009

BURLINGTON – Trailing by two late in the second quarter, the Burlington-Edison Tigers scored the final nine points of the first half and never looked back en route to a 68-48 victory over Shorecrest Tuesday night in boys’ high school basketball.

In a game featuring two of the top teams in the state, it was the aggressive and relentless defense played by Tiger coach Rick Skeen’s team that turned a seesaw first half into another double-digit Burlington-Edison win, their fifth in six games this season.

After an exciting first half that featured 12 lead changes and five ties before Burlington-Edison’s late run, the Tigers limited the Scots to just nine third-quarter points and eight points in the final eight minutes. Evan Coulter’s 21 points led three Tigers in double figures scoring, with Colin Stewart adding 13 points and Craig Babington scoring 10.

Burlington-Edison’s Jacob Schifferl was chosen by announcers Fred Lee and John Fasso as the Mister T’s Awards and Embroidery player of the game after keying the Tigers’ run at the end of the second quarter when he scored seven of his nine points and grabbed numerous rebounds.

The Tigers will host Anacortes Tuesday, Jan 5 in a girls’ and boys’ basketball doubleheader, with the Seahawks and Burlington-Edison girls scheduled to tip off at 6 pm and the boys to follow at 8 pm. We’ll webcast both of those games live here on SkagitRadio.com.

Tigers’ furious fourth quarter comeback falls two points and two yards short of miracle ending

by John on November 16, 2009

POULSBO – Burlington-Edison coaches, fans, and players were left wondering what could have been and maybe what should have been after one of the greatest comebacks in the storied history of Tigers’ football ended with the Sequim Wolves celebrating a 34-32 victory Saturday night at North Kitsap High School in the opening round of the WIAA state 2A football playoffs.

Trailing 34-12 with 10:45 remaining in the game, Burlington-Edison’s offense came to life with three touchdowns, the last one on a 13-yard fourth down pass from quarterback Dylan Boe to wide receiver Achilles Wynn as time expired.

Needing a two-point conversion to force overtime, the Tigers sent Damon Acoba up the middle, where he had been successful all night, but the Sequim defense made one of the biggest plays in Wolves’ football history, stopping Acoba short of the endzone to secure the Sequim victory.

Acoba, who missed most of the season with an injury, had averaged 7.7 yards per carry prior to being stopped on the final play of the season for Burlington-Edison. Acoba finished with 123 yards to lead the Tigers in rushing. Boe completed 15-of-32 passes for 190 yards and two touchdowns, including three clutch completions to Wynn on the final drive.

After reaching the state championship game two years ago and losing in the state playoff semifinals last season, Burlington-Edison’s loss left the Tigers with an 8-3 season record. Sequim will take a 10-1 record into next weekend’s quarterfinal game against Lynden after the defending state champion Lions beat Black Hills 14-7.

Tigers pluck Falcons 45-0 in football playoffs

by John on November 7, 2009

BURLINGTON – The Burlington-Edison Tigers capitalized on fumbles by South Whidbey on the Falcon’s first two possessions to take an early 14-0 lead enroute to a 45-0 blowout victory in the District One 2A high school football conference cross-overs Friday night at Kirkby Field.

Junior halfback Cody Larson’s spectacular 20-yard touchdown run just 85-seconds into the game gave the Tigers a 7-0 lead, and senior halfbacks Mikey Sanchez and Damon Acoba each added short scoring runs to give the Blue and Gold a 21-0 advantage before the first quarter was complete.

Led by the inspired performance of nose guard Jack Nevitt, the Burlington-Edison defense played one of its best games of the season in forcing five Falcon turnovers. The Tiger starters held South Whidbey star running back Henry Mead to just 18 yards on 18 carries. Mead, who entered the game with more than 1400 yards, finished the night with 52 yards on 24 rushes, with nearly two-thirds of those yards coming against the Burlington-Edison junior varsity and third-string defense.

Safety Jeff Hayton returned an interception for a second quarter touchdown, dragging a pair of tacklers with him into the end zone, and sophomore fullback Andy Agen plunged across the goal-line from three yards out to put the Tigers up 35-0 at halftime. Acoba added his second touchdown run of the game late in the third quarter and kicker Andrew Furney drilled a 43-yard fourth quarter field goal to cap the scoring.

With the victory, Burlington-Edison raised its season record to 8-2, while South Whidbey’s season ended with a 4-6 mark. The Tigers will travel across Puget Sound to play Sequim in the state 2A playoffs next Saturday, November 14, and we’ll webcast the game live on SkagitRadio.com with John Fasso and Scot Buchanan calling the action.
