My 4 year-old’s expert football picks

You can go lots of places to get expert picks of tonight’s football games, but where can you get a four year-old’s perspective on high school football? Oly Sports fills that void when my daughter picks tonight’s games…

Black Hills Wolves vs. Clover Park Warriors
Her pick: Warriors
“I think that Warriors run faster than Wolves”

Olympia Bears vs. Lake Oswego Lakers
Her pick: Bears
“Bears are meaner than Lakers, and run faster.”

Her pick: Blazers
“I think they are really gooder.”

Rochester Warriors vs. Ridgefield Spudders
Her pick: Spudders
“Because they grow potatoes!”

Shelton Highclimbers vs. Tumwater T-Birds
Her pick: Highclimbers
“They climb up trees and cut down the nest.”

Rainier Mountaineers @ Naselle Comets

“Comets are fast and would knock a mountaineer off the mountain”

Tenino Beavers @ Raymond Gulls
Her pick: Gulls
“I don’t know.”

Her pick: Pirates
“Pirates are mean.”

Tonight (8/31): Geoducks volleyball; Football season is a go

Meanwhile, the Geoducks are 0-5 and are still looking for their first win under head coach Greg Spector.

It’s a high school football preview roundup!

I wanted to get out and do my own football previews for this season, but it just didn’t really work out. But The Olympian did a bang up job with their previews and if you haven’t read them, it’s a good place to get yourself ready for the high school football season that gets underway tomorrow when Capital travels to Bellevue to take on Newport…

Puget Sound Collegiate League leaders: Pitching

Earlier we took a look at the hitting leaders through all but the last week of the regular season of the Puget Sound Collegiate League. Now we take a look at the pitching leaders.

Without question, the top pitcher in the league this season has been Black Hills High School alum Ryan Smith. The current Chemeketa College pitcher leads the league in innings pitched (45), wins (5), strkeouts (41) and is first among starters in earned run average (1.33) and WHIP (0.76) for the Olympia Athletics.

Kegan Duz-Aguilar has been solid in relief for the Tumwater Brewers leading the league in both ERA (0.66) and WHIP (.053). The Centralia College pitcher has two saves on the season. Capital High School product Eli Fulton leads the league with four saves.
