MS VB 2012-11-15

The middle schools kicked off their home 2012 season with a match at OHMS Thursday afternoon vs Mt. Baker.  NWMS was scheduled to be at home last Wednesday, but had to change it to an away game due to a School Levy rally in the gym.

For being the first match of the season for the Panthers, the 7th grade varsity girls played quite well.  They won their first game 25-20, stumbled a bit in the second, falling 23-25, then came back to dominate the final game 25-18 for the 2-1 victory.

The 8th grade varsity games were much closer, with two of the 3 games going to extra points.  The games were all characterized by the same pattern - OHMS would get a big lead, Mt. Baker would catch up, then the Panthers would dig in their heels to win the game.  The score for the first two games was 26-24, giving the Panthers the win,  In the 3rd game it looked over early, as OHMS was up 23-7, but the Grizzles served 10 straight times for points, but again the Panthers held on to win the game 25-18 for the three-game sweep.

Next week on Tuesday, OHMS travels across town to NWMS for an exhibition match.  Admission is free, and if you go, expect a very loud gym, as the girls get very excited and cheer loudly for their team!

Girls swim - State meet 2012

The OHHS girls swim team swam to a respectable 12th place as a team in the state meet this year and featured a 2nd place individual finish.

In the 200 meter medley relay, the OH team, consisting of Therese Desquitado, Akasha Trisler, Emily Huffer and Marissa Morris finished in 8th place, and the 200m free relay team, featuring the same girls, finished 7th.

Emily Huffer placed 6th in the 100m butterfly and was 2nd place in the 100m backstroke.

With a team laden with underclassmen, look for good things out of the team next year!

Youth Wrestling 2011-11-10 at Mt. Vernon

Youth wrestling kicked off the 2012-2013 season with a pair of tournaments at Mt. Vernon HS this past weekend.

Saturday was an open tournament, and out of 27 teams that scored points in the event, the Whidbey Wildcat Wrestling club finished tied for 5th place with 11 points.

Ten wrestlers made the early morning trip, and half of them were champions in their age and weight brackets.  An additional two wrestlers finished in 3rd and one more in 4th.

Sunday was a novice only league tournament.  Only wrestlers in their first or second year of wrestling were allowed to compete, and no team scored were compiled.

In Sunday's event, Oak Harbor entered 9 wrestlers, and all of them finished in the top four.  There was a single weight bracket champion, five 2nd-place finishers, one in 3rd place and two in 4th place.

Youth Football 2012-11-10 Cougars vs Sedro, NCYFL championship game

Saturday morning at 10:30am, the Oak Harbor midget Cougars took the field for the championship game of the 2012 season.  The Cougars finished in 4th place with a 4-3 record, but won their way through the bracket to arrive at the final game vs Sedro Woolley White.  Sedro went 6-1 in the regular season and was seeded in 3rd place.

The Cougars were looking to avenge an earlier 20-0 loss to Sedro, and things looked good early.  Sedro ran a total of 4 plays in their first two series.  They fumbled on 3 of them, and OH recovered two.  OH used one of the fumble recoveries to get on the board first after a 23-yard TD run.  The kick failed, but OH led 6-0.

Sedro tied the score early in the 2nd period with a 65-yard run, but the Cougars came right back to take a 14-6 lead on a 5-yard plunge.

A long kickoff return by Sedro set up an 8-yard pass TD, knotting the score at 14 with 4:49 left in the half, and that score would stand until the horn.

In the second half, Sedro scored about halfway through the quarter to take a 20-14 lead, then scored again late in the quarter to boost their score to 26-14.

The Cougars found some life late in the game and were driving towards a score, but a pass thrown by Oak Harbor was intercepted by Sedro Woolley with just over 3 minutes left in the game, sealing the SW win.

Although there were some tears, the boys left the field with their heads high, and through a tunnel of cheering parents who chanted "We are proud of you" over and over.

The Cougars should be proud - the only OHYFL team to reach the championship game this year!

Photos from the game are posted HERE.
