Featured Stories

The Copper Basin Cougars took on the Seahawks of Silverdale Baptist Academy Friday, September 14, 2012. The Cougars were leading the game until a miracle pass won the game for the Seahawks 16-14.After a few stalled drives and a Seahawk interception, the Seahawks marched down the field looking to score a touchdown, but the Cougar defense held strong and only allowed a field goal attempt for SBA.

The field goal put the Seahawks up 3-0.

After a march down the field, Dylan Boggs threw a short pass to Justin Vazquez, who took it 40 yards for a Cougar touchdown, this put Basin up 7-3.

On the Cougars ensuing kickoff, SBA picked the ball up at the 10 yard line and returned it for a 90 yard touchdown, now leading 10-7.

SBA took this lead into the locker rooms.

The Cougars, who deferred to the second half, received the ball to open the second half. They marched the length of the field where Boggs kept the ball on a keeper and scored on a six yard run. Basin took back the game, leading14-10.

On the ensuing Silverdale posession, the Seahawk’s Quarterback dropped back, saw that no one was open and was off to the races presumably to score an easy touchdown. The Cougars’ Denzell Brown had other things in mind, he came out of nowhere to strip the QB and gladly see the ball roll out of the endzone, Leon Lett style, for a touchback and a Cougar possession.

Basin led the game going into the fourth quarter. The Cougars had Silverdale on the wrong side of a 4th & 20. All Basin had to do was drop five guys back and bat the ball to the ground. One man was left open in the endzone and Basin’s win streak was gone in an instant. The touchdown pass put SBA up 16-14 with 56 seconds left in the game.

Boggs completed two first down passes to Stephen Spargo to get across the 50. A defensive pass interference penalty resulted in one untimed down for the Cougars, but the ball never made it to the endzone for Copper Basin. The Seahawks ended Copper Basin’s win streak at three games.
