QUILCENE — The Rangers locked up a Sea-Tac 1B League championship and an undefeated regular season with a 74-6 shellacking of Evergreen Lutheran.
The Rangers got two long defensive touchdowns from Robert Comstock III and were their usual efficient selves, running just 20 offensive plays while scoring 10 touchdowns.
Olin Reynolds had touchdown runs of 36 and 39 yards, rushing for 100 yards on just four carries, while Ashton Smead had a 61-yard TD run. Comstock also caught a 28-yard touchdown pass from Holdem Elkins in addition to his fumble recoveries of 42 and 68 yards.

Comstock had seven tackles total while Zach Budneck and Chase Newman each had nine tackles.
Coach Trey Beathard said the “kids are excited” about their undefeated season and back-to-back Sea-Tac 1B title. It’s the first back-to-back champion since Quilcene joined the league.
Quilcene (5-0, 9-0) gets a week off and a first-round bye in the 1B Quad-District playoffs. The Rangers will play the winner of Evergreen Lutheran and Darrington on either Nov. 9 or 10 at a field to be determined.
