QUILCENE — The Quilcene Rangers got 199 yards rushing and took care of business on defense, putting pressure on Darrington’s quarterback all game long in a 48-8 victory Saturday.

Charles Wright 48, Crescent 36
TACOMA — The Crescent Loggers football team got in yet another high-scoring back-and-forth affair, this time falling 48-36 to new Northwest 1B League opponent Charles Wright 48-36.
Charles Wright played at the 1A level before this season. The Loggers gave the Tarriers everything they could handle, generating more than 400 yards of offense.
One of the down sides of the game is that the Hood Canal Bridge was closed Friday night due to high winds and the team was forced to come home along U.S. Highway 101 and the Hood Canal, a slow, winding drive, and the team didn’t get home until 3 a.m.
“It was rainy, windy. It was a really good game. It was a fun game except for the bus ride home,” said coach Brian Shimko.
Charles Wright scored 16 points in the fourth quarter to pull away. Shimko said the Loggers had a chance late in the game, getting a first-and-goal, but two big penalties put the Loggers in a first-and-30.
Dom Sprague had a big game with 241 all-purpose yards. He had one touchdown catch for 34 yards and 15 carries for 83 yards. He tacked on 124 yards in kick returns.
Josh Bersom had 10 carries for 101 yards, including a 73-yard touchdown run, and six catches for 49 yards. Henry Bourm had 10 carries for 51 yards and threw for 117 yards and three touchdown passes.
Mikah Love had four catches for 75 yards, including a 28-yard touchdown and a 25-yard touchdown.
In addition, Shimko said the offensive line of Jeremy Charles, Logan Simons and Conner Avrett blocked will to open up some of the Loggers’ big runs.
It was the fourth game this year for the Loggers with more than 80 combined points. They have had two games with more than 100 combined points.
Crescent next hosts a tough Quilcene team at 1 p.m. Saturday.
Raymond-South Bend 42, East Jefferson 12
SOUTH BEND — Playing in windy and wet conditions down in southwestern Washington, the young East Jefferson football team kept Raymond-South Bend in check most of the night in a 42-12 loss.
Luke O’Hara and Tyler Martin each had big games.
O’Hara had three catches for 89 yards and ran three times for 85 yards for 174 total from scrimmage. His runs included a 74-yard scamper, and he also had a fumble recovery and six tackles on defense.
Martin led the team with a whopping 19 tackles and a quarterback sack.
“He was all over the place,” said coach Tony Haddenham.
Alex Garcia also had two catches for 28 yards and ran four times for 38 yards. He scored a touchdown on one of his receiving. Austin Glanz ran twice for 36 yards and Silas Morford ran seven times for 25 yards.
At the quarterback position, Silas Morford was 4-for-13 with a touchdown pass, while Dawson Reid was 3-for-11 for 51 yards and a touchdown. Austin Perovich also recovered a fumble and Adam Weaver a sack.
East Jefferson (0-7) hosts Kingston (1-6) in Port Townsend at 7 p.m. Friday.
Pe Ell-Willapa Valley 34, Forks 6
PE ELL — After Forks’ Landen Olson scored a touchdown to open the game’s scoring, Pe Ell-Willapa Valley scored 34 straight points in a 34-6 win.
It was Pe Ell’s fourth straight win as the Titans have a chance for the Central West League championship.
Coach Trevor Highfield said there were wet conditions in heavy rain and Forks lost three turnovers, which were huge. The Spartans’ Gage Willenbrink also recovered a fumble while Estevan Ramos had an interception. Willenbrink’s recovery helped set up Olson’s two-yard run for a score.
PEWV also had a onside kick that slipped through Forks’ hands in the soggy turf, allowing the Titans to grab the ball for a 35-yard gain.
Forks dropped to 1-2 in league and 2-5 overall. The Spartans next host Raymond-South Bend (0-3, 2-5) at 7 p.m. Friday.
Highfield said the RSB game is big for Forks because the Spartans can still qualify for postseason and a crossover game with a win over the Ravens.
