Big win deserved more coverage

What the heck? The Mountlake Terrace football team made history on Oct 30. Did they get a picture in the Enterprise? NO! Did they make the front page? NO! They should have, though.

No, Jackson was the BIG news. They apparently are Wesco Champs. Congrats to them.

Mountlake Terrace made it to playoffs for the FIRST time in their high school history! It was the first time they beat Kamiak, ever, in football. THIS IS BIG NEWS!

They should have been on the front page, with a nice picture, too. Nope, they get a little bit on the front, with a small picture. You turn to the Sports page, and another big picture of Jackson.

Terrace got the headline for the Sports page, but it should have been bigger.

The Terrace-Kamiak game was a very exciting game. What a great win for the Hawks!

I am disappointed in the Enterprise, for their choice in which team to celebrate.

GREAT JOB TERRACE!!
