Coach Kinnune named a High School Coach of the Week in Seattle Seahawks program

Mount Si football coach Charlie Kinnune was recently named The Seattle Seahawks High School Coach of the Week, after the team’s Sept. 15 win over Eastlake High School.

Kinnune and Freeman were named in Week 3. Past recipients this year include: Greg Dailer, Arlington High School and Jonathan Randall, Clover Park High School in Week 2; and Wayne Maxwell, Woodinville High School, and Adam Fisher, East Valley High School, in Week 1.
