A dream realized, an opportunity seized. Quinton Richardson is making the most of his opportunity to play football at the University of Washington.
Upon first glance, the Lindbergh Eagles’ roster looks offensive. No, it isn’t unpleasant or repugnant. It is, however, built to score a serious number of points.
The Hazen Highlanders jumped out to a 7-0 lead against Auburn Mountainview in the first quarter of the first game in 2007. After that, things took a turn for the worse. The Lions outscored Hazen 35-0 the rest of the way and the Highlanders dropped five games in a row to start the season.
Call him shifty, call him elusive. Call him lightning in a 5-foot-8 bottle.
Whatever you want to call him, just know Justin Forsett is making a strong case to crack the running back rotation in the Seattle Seahawks lineup.
The moment is probably still burned in the minds of diehard Renton High fans. The night was Oct. 25. The Kennedy Lancers had just rattled off 21 points in the fourth quarter and withstood a futile, late-game charge by the Indians to hang on and win. The cost: an outright Seamount title for Renton.
Here’s an early look at the fall season for Renton’s boys and girls cross country and girls soccer teams.
In saving his best strides for last, Wasserman came home with another first.
He’s a track junkie.
One minute, he’s talking excitedly about his time in the spotlight as one of the nation’s premier jockeys.
The next, with the speed of an auctioneer on a double-shot caffeine kick, he’s colorfully divulging how being a trainer gives him a rush like no other.
After exploring much of the Cedar River Trail, I came away with one impression: The trail is a great place to bike, take a stroll or just wander.
As a disclaimer, these observations are simply made from last year’s statistics. I haven’t seen any of the teams practice yet and I’m just assuming non-graduating players will be back this season. In other words, things could change by the time games start.
Kids out on the basketball courts at Liberty Park this week laughing, yelling and shooting hoops were learning more than just how to play basketball. They were learning how to live a healthier life.
Fast. Tough. Reliable.
UL 40, the unlimited light hydroplane sponsored by King and Bunnys Appliances in the Renton Highlands, is in the hunt again this year for a Seafair trophy.
Renton’s Alejandro Hernandez is getting a rare chance: To travel the world while playing a sport he loves, soccer.
The Seahawks training camp in Kirkland is less than a week old and the competition is already heating up. I spoke with starting cornerback Marcus Trufant about training camp, the new facility in Renton, and a few other things.
In my first preview of the Seahawks’ season, I previewed the offensive line and running game. In this column, I’ll preview what the Seahawks’ passing game might look like in 2008.
Despite the weather-induced lack of a view at the Tiger Mountain summit, West Tiger No. 3 is a fun trail with just enough challenge in it to keep hikers interested.
As youth sports continue to get more and more competitive, there are still a few places where fun is the top priority.
If Aretha Thurmond has taught her competitors anything, it’s that you should never underestimate a mother.
A year after giving birth to her first child Thurmond won the discus event at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials. Her toss of 213 feet, 11 inches was nearly three feet off of her personal best and good enough to take the win by over seven feet at the event on June 27, in Eugene, Ore. With her first place finish, the Renton High alumna qualified for the summer Olympics in Beijing, China – her third Olympic games.
