‘Press Coverage’: Week 9 preview

The Herald’s staff breaks down Friday night’s key games.

Week 9 of the prep football season is upon us, and “Press Coverage” breaks down all the key Week 9 matchups as many local teams start postseason play.

Herald writers Cameron Van Til, Zac Hereth and Josh Horton take a look at all four Wesco 3A crossover games (Snohomish at Marysville Pilchuck, Edmonds-Woodway at Squalicum, Meadowdale at Arlington and Shorecrest at Ferndale), a battle for the Wesco 4A No. 3 seed between Glacier Peak and Mount Vernon and a North Sound Conference matchup between South Whidbey and King’s with plenty of league-title implications.
