2012 Bomber Football

Game Recap October 27, 2012

The Richland Bombers came into their game needing only a win to clinch the number one 4A playoff spot for the Mid-Columbia Conference. They checked off that goal with a 35-0 pasting of the Pasco Bulldogs on a cold, drizzly night at Fran Rish Stadium.

The Bomber offense came out quickly and scored on a 4-play, 76-yard drive. Anthony Galat ate up the largest chunk of ground with a 51-yard run down the Bomber sideline. Zach Whitby then hit my favorite Bomber, Gibson McGeorge with a 15-yard pass and Richland had the lead at 7-0 with 10:32 left in the first quarter.

After that, the game was never really in doubt. Josh Phillips and Mason Baird each had interceptions and Hunter Chambers grabbed two more to keep the Bulldogs from ever establishing a real threat in the game.

Zach Whitby threw for 208 yards and completed four touchdown passes including a 17-yard touchdown pass to Sheldon Liikala, another 3 yard pass to Gibson McGeorge to make the score 21-0 at halftime.

In the third quarter, Josh Phillips added a 32-yard touchdown run that contributed to his 121 total yards on 18 carries.

Whitby then finished the scoring with a swing pass to Garret March, who proceeded to find a bundle of running room enroute to a 65-yard touchdown and a 35-0 Bomber win.

Richland needs to savor this win while they can because next week's game is going to present a much larger challenge. The Mead Panthers invade Fran Rish Stadium next Friday night, November 2, 2012 at 7:00PM. The sixth-ranked Panthers are 8-1 and their only loss is to Greater Spokane League champion Gonzaga Prep. This is a play-in game to determine who gets a bid to the state playoffs so there is a lot riding on this game for both teams.

Rememeber, next Friday night, Richland versus the Mead Panthers.

Go Bombers!
