MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck plays No. 1 3A South division champion Meadowdale Oct. 31 at Quil Ceda stadium at 8 p.m.
After the catastrophic events taking place the week before on M-P’s campus, the Tomahawks hit the ground running, preparing for their contest against Meadowdale.
“We are excited to get back out there,” M-P head coach Brandon Carson said.
The Tomahawks will be in for a tough matchup, he said.
“They are a great team that is balanced offensively and defensively,” he said. “We will have to establish a run-game with Killian Page and Austin Joyner.”
Meadowdale showed its 3A South dominance against Shorecrest Oct. 24, shutting them out 48-0.
“We’ll have to stop the run-game and go from there,” Carson said.
Meadowdale’s Malik Braxton led the team with a 15-yard reception for one touchdown and another on a 60-yard interception.
MARYSVILLE — Before M-P’s game at Quil Ceda, Marysville Getchell will play Lynnwood at 5 p.m.
Though ranked No. 5 in the 3A South, Lynnwood showed versatility in scoring in its recent win over Shorewood 30-21, including
Andrew Katzenberger, who scored two of Lynnwood’s touchdowns.
