Just three games into the football season, the Kentlake High football team is doing something it fell short of in previous years.<\/p>\n

That is, whether it be pretty or not so much, the Falcons are finding ways to win. Kentlake did just that on Saturday, rolling past Jefferson, 30-6, in a South Puget Sound League North Division game.<\/p>\n

Tayler Angevine rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown and added another score on a third-quarter punt return, helping the Falcons (3-0) remain perfect.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first time in the school\u2019s history that Kentlake has started the season 3-0. But it wasn\u2019t pretty, coach Mike Shepard noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe expected to play a whole heck of a lot better. We left probably 21 points on the field,\u201d Shepard said.<\/p>\n

With the win, the Falcons remained in a three-way tie for first place with Auburn (3-0) and Tahoma (3-0).<\/p>\n

Dallin Grover gave Kentlake an immediate boost, blocking a Jefferson punt just moments into the game. Kentlake quarterback Lewi Larson turned the block into points moment later, rumbling in for a 2-yard score and an instant 7-0 lead. Angevine added a 64-yard touchdown run later in the first quarter, giving the Falcons what proved to be an insurmountable 14-0 lead.<\/p>\n

Despite the win, Kentlake is keeping things in perspective with league powers Federal Way (2-1) and Auburn (3-0) lurking on the horizon.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there\u2019s an excitement level here,\u201d Shepard said. \u201cThey\u2019re more cautiously optimistic than anything else. None of these kids have been in this position before.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u2022 Federal Way 38, Kentridge 18: The Chargers (1-2) rolled up 303 yards of total offense, but it wasn\u2019t enough to overcome Federal Way (2-1) in a South Puget Sound League North Division loss.<\/p>\n

Kentridge\u2019s Devin Topps provided the defensive play of the night, turning a fumble recovery into a 30-yard touchdown. But it was too little, too late for Chargers, who will travel to Bethel on Thursday for a nonleague game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
