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.

Lynden blanks Burlington-Edison 20-0 in title tilt

by John on October 31, 2009

BURLINGTON – The Lynden Lions showed why they’re the defending state 2A football champions in handing the Tigers their first home loss since August of 2007 with a 20-0 shutout in Northwest Conference 2A high school football action Friday night at Kirkby Field.

The Lions’ offense controlled the ball for nearly twice as long as the Tigers, while Lynden’s defense forced nine Burlington-Edison punts and pressured quarterback Dylan Boe into completing just two of ten passes in his first game back from a broken bone in his throwing hand.  Boe was without his leading receiver, as tight end Jacob Schifferl missed the game with an illness.

Lopez Santaigo opened the scoring with 11 seconds left in the first quarter when he kicked a 22-yard field goal and Lions’ quarterback Jordan Hastings sandwiched a pair of short touchdown runs around a Santiago 24-yard field goal as Lynden (8-1 overall, 7-0 NWC) clinched its second consecutive Northwest Conference 2A championship.

Burlington-Edison (7-2, 5-2) finished second in the conference and will host the South Whidbey Falcons in the District One playoffs next Friday at 7 p.m., with the winner advancing to the round of 16 in the W.I.A.A. state playoffs.

SkagitRadio.com will webcast the South Whidbey at Burlington-Edison game Friday, November 6, with John Fasso providing play-by-play and Scot Buchanan adding commentary. Airtime for the Jerry Smith Kia pregame show is set for 6:20 p.m., with kickoff scheduled for 7 p.m.

Tigers muzzle Bulldogs 30-0 in Skagit Bowl

by John on October 10, 2009

BURLINGTON -  The previously undefeated Mount Vernon Bulldogs were humbled by Burlington-Edison 30-0 in a Northwest Conference high school football game webcast live here on SkagitRadio.com Friday night.

The Tigers took advantage of an unheard-of 10 Mount Vernon turnovers, including a touchdown on a blocked punt for the third straight game.  Burlington-Edison won the cherished Skagit Bowl for the sixth consecutive year and increases their advantage over Mount Vernon in the oldest high school football rivalry in the state to 56-39-9 in the 104th prep gridiron pairing of the neighboring communities.

Senior halfback Mikey Sanchez scored Burlington-Edison’s first touchdown on a five-yard run and quarterback Chris Burt connected with junior tight end Jacob Schifferl on a 38-yard touchdown pass. Andrew Furney drilled field goals of 40, 44 and 40 yards as the Tigers raised their record to 5-1 and handing the Bulldogs their first loss in six games this season.

Tigers tune up for Bulldogs with 45-7 blowout

by John on October 5, 2009

ANACORTES -  After three weeks of lackluster first half performances, one of which resulted in a lopsided loss to Squalicum, the Burlington-Edison Tigers looked like the team they expected to be in manhandling Anacortes 45-7 Friday night in Northwest Conference high school football action.

With running backs Cody Larson and Mikey Sanchez combining for 241 yards, the Tigers averaged over ten yards per carry to re-establish a dominant rushing attack and help take some of the pressure off sophomore quarterback Chris Burt, who was starting his first varsity game in place of injured Dylan Boe.

While the Tigers were running virtually at will, Burt completed three passes in four attempts, all to tight end Jacob Schifferl, one of at least five Burlington-Edison offensive starters to return to their regular positions.

With their offensive line back at full strength the Tigers opened huge holes for Sanchez, who scored three touchdowns en route to 101 yards, and Larson, who capped a 140 yard night on only nine carries with a 41-yard touchdown run to give the blue-and-gold a 31-0 halftime lead.

“We wanted to put a quarterback back under center and get back our running game, said Tigers’ head coach Bruce Shearer.

The Tigers’ two-time all-state kicker Andrew Furney remained perfect this season with six more extra points and added a 37-yard field goal.  Burlington-Edison scored on a blocked punt for the second straight week when Achilles Wynn scooped up the loose ball and returned it 21 yards for the Tigers’ second touchdown.

Burlington-Edison (4-1) will host their archrivals, the undefeated Mount Vernon Bulldogs (5-0), in the annual Skagit Bowl next Friday at Kirkby Field in Burlington, which we’ll webcast live.  John Fasso and Scot Buchanan will provide play-by-play, commentary and stats, with their pre-game show from The Skagit Bowl starting at 6:30 p.m.
