G-K, Bethel advance to playoffs

With a nearly perfect regular season behind them, the Graham-Kapowsin Eagles will set out to conquer the post season when they face Monroe this week in the high school football playoffs. The Eagles completed a one-loss campaign to date by drubbing Bethel 35-13 last Friday, reasserting their lead-dog position in the Bethel School District. They also wrapped up a second-place finish in the South Puget Sound League 4A's South division, which they won last year. Bethel, despite its fourth consecutive loss, is also headed for the playoffs as the fourth-seeded team from the SPSL South. The Braves' opponent will be undefeated Bothell. Against Monroe, G-K will be trying for a longer run in the playoffs than last year. That appearance ended with a loss in the first round of the state tournament. Bethel's berth in the playoffs caps a turnaround season that so far has earned a 5-4 record. The Braves were 2-7 in 2013. (Read more in the Nov. 5 print edition of The Dispatch)
