    Grace Pohl, Staff Intern|Updated Sep 8, 2017

    College football finally had its debut this weekend which caused me to sit on the couch and watch games all day Saturday. But this week was a rough start in football for Eastern Washington University fans after the Eagles lost 56-10 to Big 12’s Texas Tech. But don’t give up hope on EWU – it is way too early for that. We have to give Eastern a break as they lost their three star offensive players, Cooper Kupp, Kendrick Bourne and Shaq Hill. The players that put on jerseys last Saturday had big shoes to fill and debuting again...

    PAUL DELANEY, Staff Reporter|Updated Sep 8, 2017

    The start seemed to be there; it was the finish that still needs work in order for second-year Medical Lake head football coach Mo Owen to earn his first victory with the Cardinals. Season two opened with a 23-6 nonleague loss to the Kellogg Wildcats Sept. 1 at Holliday Field with time not on their side. Twice, once in the first half and another as the game clock wound down, Medical Lake, behind the fleet feet of quarterback J.J. Johnson, engineered drives deep in Wildcat terr...
