FOOTBALL | Mount Si suffers loss to Mercer Island

Two fumbles by Mount Si highlighted the team’s frustrating Thursday night against Mercer Island. The Islanders recovered two key fumbles in the first half that could have shifted the momentum. Instead, they routed the Wildcats 42-14 in the 3A/2A KingCo Conference contest at Mercer Island High School.
The first fumble ended a strong Mount Si drive that put them only a few yards away from scoring, and tying the game 7-7 in the first quarter. Wildcats running back Connor Deutsch looked to have found a hole through the Islanders’ defensive line when linebacker Sam Porter stripped the ball from him on Mercer Island’s 9 yard line. The Islanders recovered and held onto their slim lead.
