SATURDAY HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL: Neah Bay and Chimacum both win big

Neah Bay opened the postseason in style by dealing Lopez a 90-6 loss Saturday at Oak Harbor High School.

As has become common for the defending 1B state champions, the Red Devils jumped on the Lobos from the very start, scoring 36 points and allowing zero in the opening quarter.

In 1A crossover action, Chimacum defeated Coupeville 56-39 at Memorial Field in Port Townsend.

The Cowboys used a 20-point second quarter to put a sizable lead and a 21-point fourth quarter to keep the Wolves’ attempt at a rally from coming to fruition.

Chimacum’s season is now over. The Cowboys finish with a 5-5 record after winning their final three games against Vashon, Port Townsend and Coupeville.

Neah Bay will have next week off before beginning the state playoffs the following weekend.
