The Indians (4-6 overall, 3-3 Seamount) finished the year winless in their final three games after starting 4-3.
The Hazen swim and dive team took home the Seamount title this weekend.

The pack is back.
After tying for first at the KingCo 3A cross-country meet Oct. 20, the Liberty girls are already well on track to continue last season’s success.
The Patriots turned heads at the 3A state meet last year with a ninth-place finish, but it wasn’t just about the placing. It was how they got there.

The note hung in the locker room before the Hazen girls soccer team’s match against Kennedy Catholic Thursday night. Simple, succinct and heartbreaking.
Watch Lindbergh’s Matt Stuart, Cam Callen and Derrick Holt on the football field and the connection is obvious.
Stuart is the league’s leading passer, Callen and Holt are the league’s two leading receivers, and the Eagles are looking to cruise to the state playoffs for the fourth straight season.
The Liberty girls soccer team is three games away from a second straight undefeated KingCo 3A/2A season.
Eastside Catholic did what no other team has been able to do this season: beat the Hazen girls soccer team. The Crusaders beat the Highlanders 2-1 Oct. 15 in a non-league contest.
Lindbergh won the boys, girls and JV Seamount cross-country titles Saturday at Evergreen High School.
Mistakes cost the Lindbergh football team Friday night as the Eagles fell to Kennedy Catholic 41-28.
Lindbergh (3-3 overall, 2-2 Seamount) tossed four interceptions and fell behind early. Kennedy led 14-0 into the second quarter, when the Lancers scored a touchdown on a fake field goal to go up 21-0.
The Hazen football team won its third straight game Thursday night, topping Foster 21-13.
The Highlanders (5-2 overall, 3-2 Seamount) take on rival Renton Oct. 28 in the regular-season finale. Hazen is in fourth place in the Seamount, second among 3A teams.
The Liberty football team made quick work of Lake Washington in a 42-7 win Friday night.
Renton couldn’t stick with Kennedy Catholic and lost 43-7 Friday night.
The Hazen girls soccer team left the field disappointed after allowing two late goals to tie Kennedy Catholic 2-2 Thursday night. That in itself says something about the direction of the Highlanders this year.
“We just kind of fell apart the last 10 minutes,” said Hazen coach Ken Matthews. “The girls were terribly disappointed.”
Liberty finally did what it needed to: finish.
The Patriots got a six-yard touchdown run from Tei Staladi to take a 16-14 lead over Juanita Friday night, with one minute and 34 seconds left.
It’s all about star power for the Liberty girls soccer team. The Patriots have two all-state players in Kimi Fry and Cassidy Nangle.
“We have a group of really hard-working girls and they have one goal in mind, and that’s to win a state championship,” said Liberty coach Jamie Giger. “They come out every day looking to get better on the field.”
Lindbergh girls soccer coach James Valles was worried.
Valles knew much of his team core was seniors, and as the team’s third head coach in four years, he had some thoughts the seniors would have trouble adjusting.
Renton’s Ken Storkson ran before running was cool.
When he got out of the military in 1965, Storkson noticed he was starting to get heavy. The solution? Start running.
Minutes after its 2-1 win against Kennedy Catholic Tuesday night, the Lindbergh girls soccer team was still screaming in the locker room. Needless to say, the Eagles were excited.
The Liberty girls soccer team beat Juanita 4-0 Tuesday night.
The Patriots (6-1 overall, 5-0 KingCo 3A/2A) are tied with Interlake for the KingCo lead.
