Rushing the court, and other awkward sports moments
Fri, Mar 12, 2010

For high school hoops teams, a state berth. Or a game-winning “miracle” shot. Or the kid on the team who hasn't played all year makes a basket.

Hey. Vancouver. Nice job.
Fri, Mar 5, 2010

What’s all the fuss about? The Olympics were a blast. And these weren’t even our Olympics.

Good Luck, Pirates
Thu, Mar 4, 2010

P.C. men head to Kennewick, hoping to bring back some hardware.

Sports potpourri for you

Tue, Feb 23, 2010

Brain injury activist making waves
Fri, Feb 12, 2010

A shout out this week goes to Jean Rickerson of Sequim.

Quiet down, Saints fans — bring on the Olympics!
Tue, Feb 9, 2010

So the Super Bowl beat the series-ender of M.A.S.H. Can the sports world do it again?

Creepy NFL robots are here!
Fri, Feb 5, 2010

U.S. Customs 1, Team Cleatus 0.

Saints vs. Colts and the rest of 2010
Fri, Feb 5, 2010

I can’t believe we’re already knee-deep into February and I haven’t splayed my sports world predictions for the year all over the ‘net yet.

Sounds like the WIAA jumble is a done deal

Edgar deserves a Hall pass, part II
Thu, Jan 7, 2010

Edgar Martinez, in his first year of eligibility, didn’t make it into the Hall of Fame. No, it’s not a travesty, but it’s not right either, and hopefully sports writers will get a brain some day and put the guy in.

Best SHS game ever? — revisited
Tue, Jan 5, 2010

For those of you keeping up with the blog, I’ve posted a few times about my favorite Sequim prep games these last 10 years. I was thumbing through the old files for this one, and thought it might be fun to revisit one of SHS’s best football games of all time.

Happy holidays, sports fans
Tue, Dec 22, 2009

The Christmas/winter holiday break is always a little goofy here at the Sequim Gazette sports desk (i.e. my desk). Most high school sports hut down, as do most of the area’s golf, volleyball, running and other recreational sports programs.
