Golf team still undefeated
Last week, the Mount Si Golf Team continued its reign of terror
by sending the Sammamish Totems home with their heads hanging after a
resounding 178 – 222 defeat.
Sophomore, Brett Fallows, recorded his first medalist honor of
his varsity career by shooting four birdies on his way to a final score of a
2-under par 34. Contributing to the 44-point margin, Sean Fallows,
Derek Lee, Sean Armstrong and Brandon Proudfoot all shot even par at 36.
Eric Larson and Jay-Michael Johnson both shot 37.
The Wildcats’ next opponent was Interlake, on Thursday, at the
Tam O’Shanter Golf Course. They defeated the Saints, notching their fifth
straight win.
The team beat the Saints by a score of 190 to 197. Providing further
evidence of the depth of this team, Sean Armstrong recorded his first
medalist honor of the season and became the fourth individual Wildcat to take
top spot. Armstrong’s winning score was a 1-over par 37. Following
closely behind, with a score of 38, were Sean Fallows, David Labelle and
Eric Larson. Derek Lee and Brett Fallows closed out the top six finishers with
a score of 39.
Cedarcrest “C” squad drops game to Sammamish
The Red Wolves football team played their first home game
at Howard Miller Field against Sammamish, but the
experience wasn’t what the team had hoped for, losing 36-7.
The Totems drew first blood by scoring their first touchdown two
plays into the game. They scored again early in the second quarter for a 14-0 lead.
On the ensuing kickoff, Jesse Pettersen bobbled the ball, picked
it up, then ran from the 30-yard line through the middle of the field all
the way to the end zone. Paul Diediker kicked the extra point, making
the score 7-14.
But that would be all the Red Wolves would score offensively, as
the rest of the game was dominated by Sammamish. There were a
few Cedarcrest highlights, though. Adam DeJarnett made a great sack of
the Sammamish quarterback. After halftime, Cedarcrest took the ball after
the kickoff and drove from their 36-yard line to the Sammamish 16, much of
it on the shoulders of Pettersen. The drive was stopped when the
Totems recovered a Cedarcrest fumble.
Jared McKie made a great tackle when the Totems punt returner
failed to call for a fair catch. Offensively, Pettersen had a nice 20-yard run
and Eli Hotchkiss had a nice pass reception.
Red Wolves cross country splits meet
The Cedarcrest boys went to 2 wins 0 losses last week after
beating Skyline 22-33 in cross-country. The girls lost 20-39 despite some
strong finishes.

Cedarcrest defeats Issaquah
The Cedarcrest Red Wolves posted their first win of the season by
defeating Issaquah 15-12 in football action. The Red Wolves scored first after
a lackluster first quarter by both teams.
For the score, Nick Rick connected with Matt Geiger in the end zone.
The point after was good, making the score 7-0. Issaquah came back and
scored in the second, but the point after was blocked, making the score 7-6 at
halftime.
Issaquah would be the first to score in the second half with 10:27 left
in the third. Their two-point attempt failed though, making the score 7-12.
Struggling in the air, the Red Wolves went to their ground game
and called on Darred Carrido, who ran a brilliant 35-yard rush to put the
team deep in Issaquah territory. Aaron O’Neal got the call from 9 yards
out to score, then the team added a two-point conversion to make it 15-12.
The Red Wolves poured on the defense to ice the game and
keep Issaquah from scoring. This week, the Red Wolves take on Bellevue at
home. Game time is 7:30 p.m.
