2008 Bomber Football

Game Recap October 24, 2008

The Cascade Conference championship was already in the bag and the Senior Bombers had given flowers to their mothers. You couldn't blame the Richland Bombers for wanting to get the game against the Walla Walla Blue Devils over with as soon as possible. One play was just about enough.

Hunter Olveda burst through the Blue Devil line on the first play from scrimmage and flew 69 yards for the touchdown. The only strange part of the play was seeing Jacob Moreno miss his first and only extra point of the year. Being a former Bomber kicker with a certain skill for going wide right, it brought a small tear to my eye.

After all that excitement, the rest of the first half was kind of boring. Walla Walla did narrow the score to 6-3 on a Conner Thorne 32 yard field goal, but the Bomber defense was dominant. The Blue Devils only sojourn into Richland territory was the product of an interception.

As if to bookend the entire half, Hayden Hilty hit Brett Jacobs with a pass to the 20 yard line. Jacobs then tossed the ball to Jamison Rowe who scampered for the last 20 and a 13-3 halftime lead.

The third quarter was all Richland. Jake McKinney had a 6 yard touchdown run, and Jamison Rowe caught a pass on the Richland 44 yard line and went on a tour of the Blue Devil defense that didn't end until he had greeted each player on his way to the end zone. If you haven't had a chance to see Jamison Rowe play football, basketball, or baseball, you'd better get a move on because some day he's going to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated. The Bombers finished off the scoring when Quinn Zorich hauled in a 3 yard touchdown pass from Hayden Hilty.

With the game well in hand, the rest of the fourth quarter was devoted to those senior players who haven't gotten much of a chance to get some time on the field. These players show up every day and work very hard and it was nice to see them play.

The regular season has now come to a close. The next phase of the season starts next Friday with the Big Nine Crossover games. The Bombers will play the number four team from the Columbia Conference. The game is set for Halloween night at Fran Rish Stadium at 7:30 pm. The opponent will be between Wenatchee, Moses Lake, or Kennewick so the Bombers have a lot of work as all three of those teams are capable of putting points on the board.

So, get your Trick-or-Treating done early next Friday night and scare up a couple ticket to the world's greatest show on turf!

Go Bombers!
