Let me just comment on the East side teams. I am
pleased that Quincy has had a successful season after being hammered by Royal. early in the year. However, I think RV wins this game, and I don't
see it being close. Anything can happen, but given the potential I see in
either team, that is my pick. Nobody is paying attention to or giving RV enough
credit. They are just quietly moving through the playoffs, while everyone else
talks about Kings, Royal, Cashmere, Quincy and the Cle-Elum people talk about
themselves - ha ha. RV has been right there over the past few years,
right behind Connell and Royal in the SCAC. They have enough talent and grit, but they just
needed to be a little more focused. I think maybe coach Jay has finally brought
them along, and being the underdog doesn't hurt. Royal vs. Cle-Elum? Of course
I'm going with the Knights, but not picking a final score. Lets just say, that
before last Friday, I would have expected Cascade to give Royal a stronger game
then CE. I believe the Knights win by at least 2 touchdowns.
