Prosser trailed East Valley for just a few seconds...then Brody Buxton returned the kickoff for 82 yards. 7-3 Mustangs.
East Valley ran 39 plays in the first half for 221 yards. Prosser ran 15 plays for 41 yards.
Mustangs should feel very fortunate to be down only 17-14.
Davis senior Josh Whitney was slow enough as a freshman that I beat him in the winter race series.
Since then, he's lowered his 5k personal-best by almost 3 minutes and become one of the Valley's top distance runners. Way faster than I ever was.

The WIAA allocations gave the CWAC 3 spots in the 16-team state bracket this year, 2 next year.
The WSFCA's Round of 32 allocations gave the CWAC just 4 spots this year, 5 next year.
Can someone explain how this makes sense?
What a terrible, exploitative idea.
Rivals is now charging high school athletes $499 for ‘evaluation’ and ‘ranking consideration’ awfulannouncing.com/high-sch…
The coaches do not like Prosser and Zillah as much as the media does. Interesting.
Also surprises me a little that Selah still hasn't broken into either top 10 even after a convincing win at Othello. EV still benefitting from its terrific '25 season with a very different roster.
Dude, your tweet (which is still up btw) literally quotes Arch saying "I saw the AI edit of (Sark) slapping Holly Rowe."
So even if you expect us to believe you hadn't seen the video, you were able to imagine a video where that happened was funny.
Yesterday, I published a tweet of Arch Manning responding to a question of mine, where he mentioned seeing an AI video of Steve Sarkisian slapping Holly Rowe.
I captioned his response as "gold."
I realized quickly that I had made a mistake and was far too hasty in publishing the video without further context and with an inappropriate caption.
For that, I am deeply sorry.
I originally asked Manning if he had seen any of the TikTok creator edits from the weekend, ones where his celebration is shown over music and fans had taken their own creative spin on a massive win. I hadn't seen the video he was referring to, so in the fast-paced setting of a press conference, I acted far too fast in hitting send on a tweet that I regret.
That's not an excuse. Captioning Manning's response with "gold" trivialized an AI video depicting violence against a colleague, and that is a mistake I deeply regret.
As a young journalist just getting started in this industry, I deeply admire the hard work, time, and dedication Holly Rowe has put in to become one of the best reporters working today. I never meant to disrespect her work, vilify Manning, or spread hatred toward anyone, but intent isn't the same as impact, and I own that.
I sincerely apologize for how I chose to present the tweet, and I'll be more careful going forward, especially when it comes to AI-generated content and how quickly I hit send.
Hey @AlaskaAir why are you lying about a flight delay being caused by air traffic issues when it was actually a mechanical failure so you don't have to give out hotel vouchers?
I expect this kind of bs from other airlines but I really thought you guys were better than that.
@AlaskaAir Your own flight attendants assured my wife she could get hotel and restaurant vouchers but then she was told by customer service there was nothing they could do because of what was "in the system" even though multiple passengers said that was a lie.
Oregon women's basketball coach Kelly Graves was in Yakima tonight to watch Ducks basketball commit Cheyenne Hull put on a dominant performance for Davis volleyball in a 25-16, 25-16, 25-22 sweep of Prosser, giving new coach Michelle Howell her first win.
This is great news. Now give Yakima United its qualifying spot back. yakimaherald.com/sports/yaki…

Wow, I want to hear about why @ChrisVannini is 27 spots ahead of @davidubben on the next Bunch Formatiom.
Sorry but I have a hard time taking your claims of "it's not about hate" seriously if, like Matt, you don't acknowledge that all the leading national voices of this movement are clearly anti-trans or discuss the evolving science around the fairness of trans women taking hormones.
After 11 years as a sports columnist at the Seattle Times, I have decided to resign. It was entirely my choice, and it was not an easy one. The impetus was the Times declining to run a column I wrote from the perspective of two female student athletes who were opposed to competing against biological males. It was one of several pieces of mine that had been spiked, and I no longer felt like I could properly do my job as a columnist. I lay out the situation in greater detail in the link below, but I want to say that I enjoyed my time with the paper, find the talent there to be immense, and have no animosity toward anyone who works there. It was just time for a change.
