Silencing the doubters and critics hasn’t been an easy task for the Washington High football team this season.
The North Coast Section seeded them No. 11 in the 16-team Division I bracket. The Huskies had to play a first-round game on the road, against a team they had already beaten once this season. And, some may have even doubted their chances in Saturday’s quarterfinal against visiting College Park, a No. 14 seed that had knocked off No. 3 Amador Valley a week before.
But Washington stayed unfazed and defeated the upstart Falcons 31-9 to advance to an NCS semifinal next Saturday at Pittsburg.

It’s been a long time since the James Logan High football team had to exact revenge against Washington.
But that’s exactly what the Colts will be looking to do today when they square off with the Huskies at Tak Fudenna Stadium at 7 p.m.
"We feel like as a team, there’s payback to get the league championship back to Logan," said Colts’ fourth-year coach George Zuber, whose only Mission Valley Athletic League loss was last year’s 14-7 decision to Washington.
That Huskies’ victory was their first over Logan since 1998 and earned them their first league title since that same year. It also snapped the Colts’ 18-game MVAL winning streak.
