Chief Sealth International High School‘s football squad fought hard against Bishop Blanchet on Saturday, falling just short with a final score of 21-14. The game was a noon kickoff at Nino Cantu Southwest Athletic Complex.
We were only able to attend in-person for the 1st quarter, which ended scoreless at 0-0. Sealth athletic director Ernest “Coach P.” Policarpio tells us that QB Michael Wayman scored on a TD run in the 2nd quarter, and the game was tied 7-7 at the half. Xander Gomez added a TD for the Seahawks in the 3rd quarter, hauling in a pass from Wayman, but Bishop Blanchet scored twice in the 2nd half to seal the victory for the Bears.
