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
