This was Kennedy’s 22nd consecutive win over Lindbergh, and it puts the Lancers (6-1 overall, 6-0 league) as favorites to win the Seamount championship.

Lindbergh (5-2, 5-1) led 21-20 in the second quarter, but soon lost control as the Lancers’ Tre Watson and  Nolan Washington combined for 378 yards rushing.

Way to go JFK!

Kennedy High School Lancers take on Renton’s Lindbergh Eagles tonight at 7pm at Highline Stadium.

Kennedy is playing well this year, and has beat Lindbergh 21 consecutive times.

Lindbergh (5-1 overall, 5-0 league) is looking to end that streak tonight as they take on Burien’s sixth-ranked Lancers (5-1, 5-0) in a game that likely will decide the Seamount League championship.

The games haven’t been close since 1997, when Kennedy squeaked by with a 28-27 win. The Lancers won 49-14 last year.

Kennedy has a very strong running game, thanks mostly to Tre Watson, who averages 16.1 yards per carry and 171.5 per game. He has 21 TDs, 16 rushing.

This story was written by Josh Hart, a 15-year old student at Highline “Big Picture High School” in SeaTac who wrote on the economy last week. As you will soon tell by reading, Josh was rooting for Highline...]

FINAL: Kennedy 61, Highline 0

FIRST QUARTER: Kennedy 20 Highline 0
The first quarter was, well…horrible! I guess it depends on which team you were rooting for. If you wanted Kennedy I would say it went pretty well. Within the first five minutes Kennedy had scored three touchdowns and was up 20-0. Highline didn’t play well on either side of the ball. They got ran over by Kennedy, they were stunned coming out of the gates and they couldn’t regain control. As far as offense went I don’t think Highline had a first down all quarter. Kennedy’s offense wasn’t anything special; a team of 8 year olds could have scored just as many points as they did.

SECOND QUARTER: Kennedy 34 Highline 0
Highline played better in the second quarter offensively and defensively. They only let up two touchdowns, and even forced Kennedy to punt a few times. They also had a great fumble recovery that sparked a fire in their defense; they didn’t let up a touchdown after. They played better offensively, even though they didn’t get a touchdown. They moved the chains a couple times and their running game looked a lot better.

THIRD QUARTER: Kennedy 40 Highline 0
Highline has improved each quarter. They only let up one touchdown this quarter and looked a lot better. The problem was nobody had any motivation to play anymore. The fans were quiet, the players looked somber and nothing was exciting. They were all slowly winding down.

FOURTH QUARTER: Kennedy 61 Highline 0
This quarter was pointless to play – nobody competed. The fans, the cheerleaders, everybody was quiet. Highline let up a few more touchdowns and made the loss worse.

FINAL: Kennedy 61; Highline 0

“The Kennedy High School Lancers whooped Tyee High School 42-6 in football at Highline Stadium tonight.

Highlight of the game was the first quarter, when #2, a guy named Trey, scored not one, not two, but three touchdowns.

In one quarter.

Himself.”
