Eastmont Wildcats football faced the Sunnyside Grizzlies in the homecoming game on Friday, September 30th.

Prior to the game, Andrew Suan had thoughts about playing that night.

Suan said, “I think we will do well, but it will be a tough game.”

Oh boy he was right, the Grizzlies kicked off the game with a deep throw and reception in the end zone, scoring the extra point as well. Yet, Eastmont hit them back with a touchdown, and end of first half was 7-8. Touchdowns remained being back and forth all of the first half, and the score at halftime was 20-21, Grizzlies ahead. 

During halftime there was an intermission announcement of homecoming royalty and the homecoming court was introduced in style, riding on vehicles, waving to the audience.  The homecoming King and Queen are Andrew Suan and Aubrey Noell. Congratulations to them!

Unfortunately, the second half of the football game left the Wildcats in a drought for points, and the Grizzlies scored one more touchdown in the third quarter. Although the Eastmont Wildcats put forth a battle, the final score of the game was 28-20.
