“I think we just came out here and had fun with it today and sometimes that’s when things click the most and guys get the ball” said Chen. “I mean that’s really what it’s all about, but when it comes to finishing league play, I think they gave the wrong team life this year.”
For Heritage, Evan Buckman had 20 rushes and 100 yards.
Evergreen’s loss to Prairie earlier in the day gave Mountain View’s postseason hopes a boost. If Evergreen loses to Kelso and Prairie beats Heritage, Mountain View will find itself in a three-team tiebreaker.
“The league is tough this year and our guys are gonna go play a tough team and have to come back and be prepared for anything,” Thunder coach Adam Mathieson said. “We gotta mentally prepare for three teams almost but if there’s any team built for a tie-breaker situation with a lot on the line, it’s this team”
