North Kitsap football tops Olympic as league title race tightens
North Kitsap's defense shut out Olympic in the second half to help the Vikings win 24-21 in Week 7 of high school football in West Sound.
North Kitsap football secured a 24-21 victory over Olympic in a tightly contested match, tightening the league title race. Olympic had captured three league titles from 2014 to 2022, while North Kitsap had never won the championship in that span. Coach Chris Richardson emphasized the need for his Vikings to "take what you want" ahead of the game.
With only three points scored in the second half, senior Toby Duncan's 29-yard field goal proved decisive. North Kitsap now stands at 6-1 overall and 4-1 in league play, tied with Olympic and North Mason for the top spot. Olympic and North Mason face off next week, with North Kitsap set for a Week 8 game against Port Angeles.
