Here’s some video I found on YouTube of the King’s High School football team. It’s a highlight tape with good information on some of King’s top players. Nooksack Valley travels to play King’s in the Class 1A state quarterfinals on Friday, Nov. 20.

Here’s some video I found on YouTube of the Lynden football team’s Class 2A state quarterfinal opponent, Sequim. This is video of the Wolves’ 34-32 win over Burlington-Edison.

Here’s a link to a story in the Seattle Times about Marysville-Pilchuck running back Austin Denton and his quest to set the state’s single-season rushing record. So what does this have to do with Whatcom County? Well he’s chasing former Ferndale standout Matthias Wilson who set the mark with 2,678 yards in 1997. Denton has 2,055 yards so far this season.

Here’s a link to the “Tourney Town” website for coverage of live events at the Yakima SunDome. I’m not sure how frequent the scoring updates will be, but there’s already some video of warm-ups from this morning up on the site.

Here’s a link to an audio interview with Montesano football coach Terry Jensen at CoachesAid.com. It’s about six minutes long and has some good stuff about a Bulldogs team that’s undefeated and allowed just one touchdown this season.
Montesano meets Meridian on Saturday, Nov. 14 in the opening round of the state playoffs. Jensen talks about the Trojans about halfway through the interview. No bulletin board material here, but it’s clear the Bulldogs have been doing some early scouting of the Trojans.
There have been some good battles between these two programs over the years.

As far as websites for high school sports teams go the Meridian football team has to have one of the best around and likely in the state.
According to the site there are plans to provide live scoring updates, photos and video from tonight’s game against Port Townsend. It’s the first time all three of these things are being attempted by those involved with the site, but if it works out it should be a pretty cool deal.
Click here to get to the site. Once you get there click on the “Launch Port Townsend Game Tracker” bar. It’s the big bar in orange just above “Trojan News section.”

Here are video highlights from Lynden’s 28-14 win over Blaine last week. It was produced by a Blaine parent so it’s tends toward Borderites highlights, but it’s a good watch. Be sure to check out Caleb Statham’s 99-yard TD run about 40 seconds into the video. And watch Lynden’s closing speed. WOW.
