Game notes: Harsh’s seven completions last week matched a low for the sophomore’s brief prep career. … The Beavers turned to the ground attack last week. RB Tristan Thomas has rushed for 175 yards on 36 carries. … WR Tyler Flanagan leads Woodland with 9 catches for 130 yards and two TDs. … Julio Vara leads Bay with 7 catches for 92 yards. … Bay struggled to move the ball on the ground, gaining just 51 yards last week against Heritage. … The Eagles’ defense scored a shutout in Week 1 and kept Bay in the game against Heritage last week until the fourth quarter.
The Prep Proletariat says: “After narrowly missing a Week 1 win vs. Kalama and narrowly hanging onto a win against La Center, Woodland enters league play still trying to find itself. Look for the Beavers to get better each week. WOODLAND 28, HUDSON’S BAY 6.”
