SEDRO-WOOLLEY – The Sedro-Woolley Cubs rode a wave of emotions and huge Friday nights from Derek Garcia and Ian O’Brien in honoring the memory of assistant coach Denny Engberg with a 36-14 win over Monroe.
Sedro-Woolley entered the game with heavy hearts after Engberg’s death Thursday night, but after meeting with coaches and counselors Friday morning, the Cubs decided to play the game as a tribute to Engberg.
O’Brien contributed a rare football “hat trick”, scoring touchdowns on offense, defense, and special teams, while Garcia scored two touchdowns on his way to 224 yards of total offense. Engberg’s son Kellen had a spectacular 20 yard highlight real second quarter catch and run that featured a number of slipped tackles and changes of direction. Cubs wide receiver Joe Janicki added a 60 yard pass reception to set up a ascore.
