SPORTS 8A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2015 NHS hopes weight work will have playoff payoff Comets gear up for Friday game with Seattle Lutheran By PATRICK WEBB For EO Media Group NASELLE, Wash. — This week, the Comets’ stellar football season reaches the sharp point. Friday’s home contest against Seattle Lutheran is loser-out. Naselle takes a 7-2 record into the game, which begins the postseason path to the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association 1B state championships. Comet fans dream of their boys playing for the top tro- phy in the Tacoma Dome Dec. 4. But that’s a long way away. Head Coach Jeff Eaton said Naselle will be entering the 7 p.m. game as the under- dog. “They are going to be a good team,” he said, as he prepared scouting reports. “It’s going to be a really good challenge.” Naselle has been playing eight-man football for two years since dropping into the 1B classi¿cation. Three few- er players on the ¿eld opens up space for speedy running backs to do their jobs. Thanks to a motivated corps of Com- et linemen, senior quarter- back Hayden Gudmundsen has been successful getting the ball to junior Jacob Scra- beck, who has scored 25 touchdowns in nine games. Another running back, Don- ny Edwards, has found gaps in recent contests, adding to Naselle’s point tallies. Eaton, who played line- man at Naselle and Western Washington University in his youth, knows exactly where football games are won and lost. He is aware that the Se- attle team’s linemen are solid, too. “They are stout and they have a fast running back,” he said, referring to Brandon Lu- low, a 6-2 Seattle senior, who has caught the coaches’ atten- tion around the region. The Saints also are 7-2, having won 52-12 last Fri- day against the Washington Patrick Webb/EO Media Group Part of the success of Naselle’s football program is its strength, a product of the players’ year-round work in the high school weight room.

The Comets host Seattle Lutheran 7 p.m. Friday in the state playoffs. Patrick Webb/EO Media Group Patrick Webb/EO Media Group Sophomore running back Donny Edwards has played a key role in Naselle’s success. Head Coach Jeff Eaton said he brought speed to the team as a freshman, but his hard work in the high school weight room has built his strength this season. He has led or tied the tackle count in the last couple of games. School for the Deaf. Earlier they defeated Naselle rivals Oakville and Mary M. Knight by large margins, and de- feated Tulalip Heritage, one of two teams which beat the Comets this season. This Fri- day’s winner will face Clal- lam Bay or Neah Bay; the latter has been 1B champion three of the past four years. Naselle’s successful runs in the post-season in 2007 and 200 included ¿rst-round wins over the Saints. The Comets advanced to the semi- ¿nals in 200, and played in the Tacoma Dome. Last year in the district playoffs, the team took a ferry ride to Oak Harbor, Wash., and lost to Lo- pez. They last played Seattle Lutheran in the regular season in 2009, winning handsomely. Naselle has won seven games this year, most by sig- ‘They are going to be a good team … they are stout and they have a fast running back.’ NHS football Head Coach Jeff Eaton — Jeff Eaton ni¿cant margins, in part be- cause of Scrabeck’s strength and speed. Eaton’s strong sense of fair play has meant once his team is well ahead he doesn’t run up the score. Instead, he replaces Gudmundsen at quarterback with a promis- ing freshman, Cole Dorman. The youngster has worked with Assistant Coach Pete Riley to develop his throwing arm, which is already strong from his springtime duties as a baseball pitcher. He’s con- nected often this season with classmate Parker Dalton, a talented wide receiver, and in the Comets’ last game Oct. 30 found another freshman, Ja- cob Eaton, with a spectacular pass high into the end zone that had the home crowd roar- ing with admiration. Head Coach Weights help success Other than the burly line- men, most of Naselle’s play- ers are small, but tough. Eaton and the other Naselle coaches attribute much of their success to a year-round weight room. It is especially important for football players who don’t play winter bas- ketball or compete in spring baseball or track. During the season, Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday practices begin in the cramped concrete room tacked on to the gym. The sound of metal clang- ing on metal and the scuff of athletic shoes on the Àoor is mixed with positive calls of encouragement as the teenage athletes encourage their team- mates to stretch themselves. Assistant Coach Matt Scrabeck keeps a close safety watch throughout, and signals for them to rotate from bar bells to exercise equipment to weights so they work on dif- ferent muscle groups. The three offensive line- men, Cody Kirkman, Ramzi Estes and Carson Bergeson, and defensive leader Allyn Bauer outweigh everyone, and adjust the equipment to give them a maximum work- out. But the smaller players exert themselves, too, and a recent session saw Edwards, Erik Lund and D.J. Wirkkala giving it all they had, while encouraging each other. “We ¿nd that the younger kids, especially the freshmen, have not lifted much, if at all,” said Eaton. “It helps with their core strength and makes them a little bit stronger — and they see themselves mak- ing gains.” The coach cited Edwards, an enthusiastic sophomore, as an example of a player who has bene¿ted. He joined the team a year ago with speed, but has added strength this season. “I know it has helped him,’ said Eaton. “As a freshman, he was a little timid, though he was fast last year. Now he is way more con¿dent tack- ling and playing defense. He likes to check his tackle count.” The philosophy produces measurable results. In ad- dition to demonstrating his prowess as a running back carrying the ball, Edwards has led or tied the team-high tackle count in the last two games. “I think it bene¿ts all of them,” said Eaton. “They are not going to be bench-press- ing 300 pounds, but it helps them get con¿dence.” The Daily Astorian’s Gary Henley contributed to this story CL ASSIF IE D M ARK ETPL A CE P lace classified ad s o n lin e at w w w .d ailyasto rian .co m o r call 503-325-3211 CL ASSIF IE D IN DEX ANNOUNCEMENTS 055 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
