Playoffs: TNT’s football Game of Week, predictions for every South Sound matchup
The “Round of 32” is here, with high school football playoff games being played across Washington this weekend.
Here’s our Game of the Week pick in the South Sound, along with our predictions for every local matchup.
GAME OF THE WEEK
No. 17 Camas (6-3) vs. No. 16 Olympia (7-2)
7 p.m. Friday at Ingersoll Stadium (Olympia)
Olympia will look to bounce back after the Bears were stopped in their tracks by back-to-back Class 4A state champion Sumner last week in a 38-8 loss. Olympia kept things a little closer against Graham-Kapowsin in early October, though, and has improved under first-year coach Cary Nagel. Senior running back Ibrahima Diallo is averaging nearly 200 yards per game on the ground and has racked up 21 touchdowns. Camas, meanwhile, will be eager to get to the 4A state tournament after the Papermakers have fallen short of lofty preseason expectations this year. Camas fared well against 4A SPSL opponent Curtis in September in a 41-14 win. Skyview had Camas’ number this year, but I think the Papermakers are heading into the postseason with some positive momentum. The matchup between Diallo and Camas senior running back Thor Brody should be fun.
TNT pick: Camas 28, Olympia 21
