JOYCE — Crescent couldn’t contain Tulalip Heritage senior Robert Miles in a 78-48 Northwest League loss to the Hawks.

Miles scored six touchdowns, four on pass receptions, one on a kickoff return and another on an interception return in Saturday’s game.

“It was a battle between a really good senior and an eighth-grader [Eric Emery],” Loggers coach Brian Shimko said.

“Eric did what he could, but that guy has great hands and made big plays for them.”

Emery made some big plays himself, totaling 106 receiving yards, including touchdown passes of 34 and 52 yards from Crescent quarterback Neil Peppard.

He also returned a kickoff 72 yards for a touchdown, one of two Logger kickoff returns that were taken back for scores.

“I can’t wait to see him when he’s a senior,” Shimko said.

“He’s going to be a great player.”

Jakob Baillargeon added the other, an 82-yard burst to paydirt.

McCabe Story took a reverse 70 yards for another Crescent score.

He later scored from 1 yard out on a direct snap after Emery intercepted a pass and returned the ball just shy of the goalline.

Story finished with nine carries for a team-high 94 yards rushing.

Noah Leonard also caught a 16-yard touchdown pass for the Loggers (0-1, 2-3).

Shimko was buoyed by how much better his players dealt with their emotions this week compared to last week’s 50-8 loss to Quilcene.

“We worked on a lot during the week,” Shimko said.

“We’re such a young team that the goal is to do better than our previous game, and so far we are staying on track.

“You have to ride the roller coaster and play the next snap and not dwell on the past, and yesterday was a 180-degree turn from last week.”

Crescent visits Lummi (1-0, 3-1) on Friday.

Port Angeles 6, Kingston 0

PORT ANGELES — The Roughriders broke open a close Olympic League contest and routed the Buccaneers to earn their first shutout on the season.

The teams were evenly matched for the first 25 minutes of Saturday’s game at Civic Field.

“Once we scored, it took the wind out of Kingston,” coach Scott Moseley said of Saturday’s game.

“It was a critical league win.

“We have a lot of offensive punch, and once we gained confidence the goals started piling up.”

Taylar Clark opened the scoring, taking a Maddie Boe pass, dribbling into the box and hitting a far post shot over the goalkeeper.

Freshman Kyrsten McGuffey found the net with a left-footed shot from 15 yards a minute later, with Leah Haworth earning the assist.

The Riders went up 3-0 just before halftime.

McGuffey played a ball to Emily Boyd, who spun around her defender and sent a well placed left foot shot just inside the post.

Port Angeles scored in a flurry in the second half to put the game further out of reach.

Sierra Robinson finished a Boyd cross in the 46th minute, and Boyd earned her second goal of the game a minute later on an assist from Haworth.

The score was Boyd’s team-leading seventh goal of the season.

“I thought the intensity was a lot higher and we all started working together as a team in the second half,” Boyd said of her team’s scoring spree.

Clark finished the scoring in the 48th minute, taking a Boyd pass that Clark was able to just poke into the goal.

The Port Angeles (2-3, 5-3) defense held Kingston to only 5 shots on goal.

The Riders host defending 1A state champion Klahowya (6-1-1) in a nonleague game Tuesday.

“The boys all had great times, ran hard and enjoyed the race,” boys coach Rodger Johnson said.

“The race was a great opportunity to run with top competitors from all over the west side of the state.”
