It was the closest of the 3 football games against Monroe this first week of the season, but the freshman team fell to the host Bearcats 27-20 last Wednesday at Monroe HS.
Monroe got on the board first with a long play, just 50 seconds into the game.
Oak Harbor responded with a pick-six at 7:38 in the 2nd, but the PAT failed, leaving the score at 7-6 for Monroe.
OH then took the lead with just under 3 minutes left in the half and converted the 2-point PAT to make the score 14-7 at halftime.
The 3rd quarter was back and forth but with just 5 seconds left in the quarter, Monroe was able to tie the game at 14, then due to a muffed kickoff, took a 20-14 lead at the horn.
With exactly 5 minutes left in the game, the Wildcats got on the board again to tied the score at 20, but with 3:18 left in the game the Bearcats scored once more, then held out to end the game with a 27-20 win.
Next week the Freshman team was supposed to host Ferndale, but now it looks like they'll travel to Sedro-Woolley to play a half against the Cubs and a half against Ferndale. More details later as they are firmed up.
