A look back at a wild weekend in Kitsap County.

Central Kitsap 13, Peninsula 0 (Oct. 12)

The Cougars completely shut down a top South Sound Conference team in a Thursday night game at Silverdale Stadium.

Quarterback Angel Davila also threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Caleb Wood to open the scoring in the first half. After a let down against Gig Harbor, the win over Peninsula boosted the Central Kitsap’s shot a playoff berth.

Up next: Central Kitsap (3-2, 4-3) at Shelton (0-4, 0-6) at 7 p.m., Oct. 20.

Klahowya 7, Port Townsend 6

It was defense, defense and more defense for the Eagles, holding a talented Port Townsend offense to just six points in a win that keeps Klahowya’s playoff hopes alive. Junior Andrew Dickson returned an interception 99 yards on the Redhawks’ first drive, and that was all the offense the Eagles would need.
