Varsity football vs Everett 2010-09-24

Homecoming went well as the Wildcat varsity football team evened their record at 2-2 with a big win over the previously undefeated Everett Seagulls at Wildcat Memorial Stadium.

Everett scored first with an interception return. The PAT kick failed, which would become very important later. A Matt Burgoyne pass to Mike Washington, Jr. tied the score at 6-6, but OH also missed the PAT kick.

The two teams went back and forth until late in the 2nd quarter when Zack Ayer punched across the goal line. This PAT kick was good, giving the Wildcats a 13-6 halftime lead.

Most of the second half was a stalemate, with defenses outplaying offenses on both teams. Everett got an INT in the OH end zone and it appears that OH also got an interception, with the official with the best view calling a touchback but a 2nd official calling it incomplete. In the end it was ruled incomplete.

Late in the game Everett scored a touchdown and instead of attempting a kick PAT to tie the game, they opted to go for the 2 point conversion and the win. They tried to run it up the middle but were stopped by a host of Wildcat defenders.

The final score was Oak Harbor 13, Everett 12.
