Anacortes ousts Olympic football in state opening round

Olympic's football team had its chances early to put a scare into Anacortes in its Class 2A first round state game Friday, Nov. 13. The Trojans found out what happens when you don't cash in on scoring opportunities and make self-inflicted mistakes against one of the state's powerhouse programs. Facing the 2023-2024 state champions on the road, No. 13 Olympic wasted two trips into the red zone in the first half in a 42-7 loss. Senior quarterback Ryan Harrington, a Washington State University commit, had 5 passing touchdowns and a rushing score to lead No. 4 Anacortes, who'll advance to the state quarterfinals with a 9-1 record. "He's got an arm, man, and it's pretty accurate," Olympic head coach Sal Quitevis Jr. said. "They've got some pretty good receivers, too." Olympic finishes its campaign at 8-3. It's the third consecutive season the Trojans have watched their season conclude in the opening round at state. The Seahawks led 21-0 at halftime, taking advantage of weaknesses that flared up at times for the Trojans this fall: pass defense and snapping/special teams issues. Olympic possessed the ball more than Anacortes in the first half, but it didn't matter. The Trojans missed a 36-yard

Back-scratching services take off in Seattle area and the U.S.

Professional back scratching is now a thing. Why it matters: What was once a private gesture between romantic partners or between parents and children is becoming a paid service — a sign of how many Americans are seeking human touch and connection amid growing loneliness and isolation. Catch up quick: Viral TikTok and YouTube videos helped the niche take off. Now, similar services are popping up from Seattle to New Jersey to Los Angeles . How it works: Typically, scratch therapy involves people using long nails to trace and scratch others' backs, scalps, arms and legs. In Seattle, you can get a 35-minute head and back scratching session for $60 at Symmetry Spa in Bitter Lake. At Luxe Scratch Lounge , a new scratch therapy spa in Oak Harbor owner Kerstin Rodriguez offers 15-minute sessions for $30, in addition to longer bookings . What they're saying: The goal is to "help people relax and unwind and do it (in) a way that everybody could afford it," Rodriguez told the Whidbey-News Times . "It's not physical therapy. It's not medical at all," Rodriguez told the news outlet. "It's all sensation." Yes, but: Some scratchers claim their work releases mood-boosting neurotransmitters, but
