SPORTS: Wolfpups win two of three over Chimacum; other youth football results

CHIMACUM — The Sequim Wolfpups won two-of-three games from Chimacum but the host Chimacum A team beat the Sequim Varsity 31-0 on Saturday in area youth football action.

Chimacum used a power running game led by Colton Pole, Josh King and Victor Hitt. Offensive linemen Greg Shold, Johnny Rogers, Michael Galle and Richard Merrifield blew holes open for Chimacum’s running backs.

Alex Morris had another good game leading the offense and was helped in the passing game by a couple of spectacular plays turned in by Brendon Naylor.

Defensively, Chimacum held Sequim scoreless with a relentless attacking defense.

Myles Hundley picked off a Sequim pass and returned it for a touchdown, only to have it overturned on a block in the back penalty.

Chimacum A, now 2-1, hosts a tough Port Angeles Green team Saturday at 4 p.m.

The Wolfpups beat Chimacum’s C team 14-12.

Jacob Wade recovered an onside kick for Chimacum while Seth Naylor and Cole Dotson combined for 227 total yards with Dotson scoring two touchdowns.

Kyle Eichmann, Glenn Deckard, Olin Reynolds, Ben Anderson and Henry Pleas were all standouts for Chimacum on defense.

Chimacum C hosts Port Angeles Green at noon on Saturday.

Sequim also beat Chimacum’s B squad 19-7. It was a hard-hitting defensive battle for both teams.

Christopher Bainbridge led the Cowboys with 63 rushing yards, and he picked off a Sequim pass for his first interception of the year.

Peyton Hundley rushed for 58 yards and the only Chimacum touchdown. Lane Dotson rushed for 25 yards and passed for 18.

Chimacum hosts Port Angeles Green at 2 p.m. on Saturday.

PORT TOWNSEND VS. FORKS

FORKS — Host Forks won two-of-three games between the two youth football programs but the Port Townsend Braves’ B squad (3-0) continued its dominance this year with a commanding 60-0 victory despite the mercy rule in effect in the second half (the clock continues to run).

Berkley Hill returned the opening kickoff 60 yards for a touchdown, and it went downhill from there for Forks.

The Braves’ defense continued its domination of opposing teams with multiple tackles for loss, six sacks, a fumble recovery by Chase Steinfort-Smith and interceptions by Joe Hoffmann, Carson Marx and Matthew Widmer.

Widmer returned his for a 40-yard touchdown.

Isaiah Mason, Matthew Widmer, Carson Marx and Austin Widmer all had rushing touchdowns.

Marx had his second passing touchdown of the year to Hill to put the mercy rule (more than 39 points) into effect before halftime.

Port Townsend will be at home Saturday.

Forks beat the Braves’ C squad 18-12. The youngest Braves kept the score tied until 2 minutes were left in the game when Forks scored a touchdown.

Port Townsend had strong defense from Melvin Tuulaupua, Jeremiah Thetford and Payton Lake. Ethan Brown scored for the Braves as well as Thetford.

Forks beat the Port Townsend A squad (11-12 year olds) 26-0.

The Braves’ defense had trouble stopping the Forks running attack but the improving play of linebackers David Sua and Alex Reierson should result in better defensive performance in the upcoming weeks.

The Braves play their first home games of the season this Saturday at Memorial Field against the Neah Bay Warriors.

Kickoff times are noon for the C teams, 2 p.m. for the B squads and 4 p.m. for the A teams.
