The Mules came out on top over the Comets in the week two battle between the rivals, as Wahkiakum dominated the matchup 54-10. Wahkiakum Head Coach Ryan Lorenzo said getting the KM Trophy back was a weight off his shoulders, and a big part of the win was the "unreal" play of senior quarterback Jayden Stoddard. One play that stood out to Lorenzo was a two-point conversion Stoddard salvaged from a botched snap. The play started with a fumbled snap. Stoddard picked up the ball and shed a defensive...

The program sought a return to the state finals and, though they fell just short in the semifinals, the season was still a success, decided by the finest of margins.

You can play well and almost perfect all year, but all the pieces of the puzzle have to fall...
