North Kitsap back in state football playoffs after two-year hiatus

POULSBO — After a two-year hiatus, North Kitsap's football program is back in the Class 2A state tournament. Junior Townsyn Walsh's two touchdown runs helped the 10th-seeded Vikings secure a 29-6 victory over No. 23 East Valley of Spokane on Saturday, Nov. 7 in the Round of 32 playoffs. North Kitsap (9-1) failed to advance past this stage in 2024 and 2025, but made sure things would be different this time round after capturing a share of the Olympic League title during the regular season. "We had a great week of practice, great week of prep," Walsh said. "I think that's what set us up for this victory." More football playoffs: Olympic books ticket into state tournament with shutout The Vikings, who qualified for state nine consecutive seasons from 2014-23, will learn their seed and first-round opponent Sunday when committees meet to determine state playoff brackets. First-year head coach Chris Richardson believes his team is worthy of a top-8 berth, which would put North Kitsap in line to host an opening-round contest. "I think defensively we can play with most anybody," he said. North Kitsap scored the first 16 points of the game Saturday, scoring on two long-distance touchdown runs.

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND -- Physical therapist by day and culinary artist by night, Trish Fong is no stranger to ambitious business ventures. Her newest sits in the Bainbridge Pavilion, right at the cinemas' concession stand: a gelato cart, imported from Italy. Inside the cart's cooler, rotating small-batch flavors of both gelato and sorbetto range from familiar dark chocolate, to adventurous combinations like roasted strawberry with fig balsamic. It’s the icy half of Mama Fong's , a brand-new eatery that has something crunchy, savory and gluten-free incoming -- fiery fried chicken. Simmered in heritage, before an unexpected opportunity Trish Fong grew up in a Chinese household as the eldest granddaughter. By the time she was 12, she was cooking and serving meals for her entire family. "My grandmother taught me how to fry and how to cook," Fong said. "Her influence is my connection to my cultural heritage. I don't speak the language, but I know how to cook Chinese food, particularly southern Chinese food." Fong would go on to Saint Mary's College, in California's Bay Area, balancing a start in retail food service with her studies. Following graduation, Fong moved to Miami for graduate school, where she realized her passions could
