: Lake Washington started its season with a strange win over Garfield last Friday. With the Kangs holding a 14-0 lead early in the third quarter, a dispute over a fumble led to a Garfield coach being ejected and the Bulldogs forfeiting the game by walking off the field. Michael Wozeniak returned a kickoff 61 yards for a touchdown to help the Kangs to the win.
Next up for Lake Washington is Redmond, which struggled against Juanita in week one (see above). That game will be held at Redmond and will kick off at 7 pm.
