Varsity football vs Cascade 9-4-2009

The Wildcats took the field at Everett Memorial Stadium last Friday night in their first game of the year with a new offensive look in place. In previous years, Oak Harbor was known for running the Wing T formation, but a few games into last years' season switched to a spread, pass-oriented offense. This year a new twist was added - no huddle and hurry up, starting from play one.

Cascade took their 2nd possession to the endzone and used a trick PAT to score 2, giving the Bruins an early 8-0 lead. The defense adjusted well, holding the Cascade run game in check and forcing several 4th-down turnovers. That 8-0 lead stayed throughout most of the game until Cascade scored again late, leaving the final score Cascade 15, Oak Harbor 0.
