Ugly - that's the only word for it

The Oak Harbor Wildcat football team traveled to Everett Memorial Stadium for a non-conference game against the WESCO 3A Everett Seagulls, and came away with their second loss on the season. The 22-0 loss was the Wildcat's first shutout since losing to Mountain View 49-0 in November of 2002.

The game started out looking good, with Brad Farnum moving the ball up the middle, but the drive stalled and OH could not convert on the 4th down play.

From then on, Everett seemed to be able to move the ball at will, both on the ground and through the air, and broke several long plays for scores.

Oak Harbor was never able to get the offense really going, but twice had the ball inside the Everett 10, but fumbled on both attempts at scoring. The 'Cats faced several 4th down attempts but could not convert any of them.

There were some positives in the game, among them two sacks and a fumble recovery by Chris Neumiller, some nice kickoff returns, all going out past the 20, and a tackle for loss late in the game by Greg Goebel and Michael Repose.

There is some great video of Neumiller's sacks, and shots of Farnum early in the game. Look for video clips on Monday.

Next up for the Wildcats is 2-1 Mt. Vernon at home next Friday.

Mt. Vernon 34, Sehome 31
