HS Football Competes in Jamboree

DW sports-Nineteen players traveled to Ritzville to compete in a high school football jamboree on Saturday, August 27. Head Coach Troy Larsen stated that his team had the opportunity to go live against some of the top 2B programs in the state.

Each team received 20 offensive, and defensive plays, giving Larsen an indication of what the season holds, especially the open-field tackling. The Wolfpack played five offensive plays against LRS (Lind-Ritzville-Sprague), five against Medical Lake, and ten against Davenport. Medical Lake and LRS played five offensive plays against the DW defense, and Colfax played ten against the hard-hitting Wolfpack.

Quarterback Monte Pettichord had a great day running a new offense, with a highlight 40-yard touchdown pass to Spencer Hansen in the end zone to cap off the day of offense. Hudson Reser showed everyone his skills at the outside linebacker position, and Daylan Marlow ended the scrimmage with an interception against Medical Lake.

Friday, September 2, the Wolfpack will take on a strong Granger team on the Waitsburg field with a start time of 7 pm. Larsen indicated that the game would be a test for the team but is looking forward to seeing the energy the Wolfpack will bring and how they stack up to the largest school in the 2B conference.
