SEDRO-WOOLLEY – Still riding the emotional wave from losing assistant football coach Denny Engberg to a heart attack last week, the Sedro-Woolley Cubs continued their focus to win for Coach Engberg with a 33-7 victory over Northwest Conference cross-county rivals, the Anacortes Seahawks Friday night at home.
Cub quarterback Derek Garcia drove the Sedro-Woolley offense down the field twice in the first half to score on short-yardage touchdowns, once in each quarter, making the halftime score 13-0.
Halfway through the third quarter, Anacortes running back Dan Codd took a shotgun snap, faked left then utilized blocks on a sweep right and dashed to the front endzone pylon for the lone Seahawk touchdown.
Ian O’Brien scampered around left end with three minutes left in the third quarter for a long 40-yard touchdown run for the Cubs’ third touchdown. O’Brien was untouched after taking the pitch from Garcia, a credit to the blocking from the Cub offensive line throughout the game.
Harley Lee took a handoff from Garcia in the fourth quarter from one yard out to extend the Cubs’ lead 26-7.
With under two minutes left and reserves filling each position, Sedro-Woolley’s Wade Huber found his way through Seahawk defenders with a 2-yard touchdown run to cap off Sedro-Woolley’s offensive onslaught.
The Cubs extend their season record to 3-1 with their third straight win, and second victory in a row “for Coach Engberg.”
