Federal Way dispatched Richland pretty easily and Prep did the same with Kentridge. Disappointing that they’ll be meeting in the semis, but that’s the way it goes. Mt. Si will face Curtis in the other semifinal.

Sounds like Richland was able to pull their starters in the fourth quarter against Mount Rainier. Up thirty with a matchup vs. Federal Way tomorrow I think that’s the prudent approach. That’s going to be a great matchup, just a shame it’s in the quarterfinals.

Governor John R. Rogers is a mystery to me despite having two high schools named after him here in Washington State. His Wikipedia page is pretty paltry and he doesn’t jump out as particularly notable beyond passing legislation that helped equalize public school funding.

The black tinted keyboard and mouse that go with the iMac Pro are my favorite part of finally working on one. That’s the keyboard Apple should build the whole Mac line around because Jony Ive’s pristine white aesthetic doesn’t last long in real world use!

Gibbs put himself through college working nights at a factory (even during the football season!), and after graduating would eventually become the first black high school principal in Columbus. What a legend!

Today I learned that Ohio State has an even better, more inspirational walk-on story than Rudy. In 1954 Jack Gibbs, a third string fullback who never played high school football, made a 47 yard interception return against Michigan after subbing in as a linebacker!

Literature review with Papa.

On paper it’s kind of disappointing that G-Prep and Federal Way are projected to meet in the 4A semifinals, but then I’m reminded of 2007 when Ferris beat defending champion Franklin in the semis and then had to go to OT to beat Kentridge in the championship game.

Watched Iron Man with the two oldest kids tonight. Holds up very well for being 11 years old! Definitely one of my favorite MCU movies.

G-Prep took a pretty good shot from Curtis in the first quarter, adjusted, and went on to handily win 65-47. Seems kind of unbelievable that Federal Way, G-Prep, and Richland are all in the same half of the bracket. The Bombers’ title aspirations are in a world of hurt right now.
