Good Sunday morning. We wrap up our high school sports previews today, but first, we have news from the college gridiron, and that is another Mount Si High School grad’s college football career has come to an end.
Linfield University’s football team fell in their second-round playoff matchup in the NCAA Division III playoffs yesterday, 27-10, to Mary Hardin-Baylor of Texas. The loss ends the Wildcats’ season at 9-2, and marked the end of lineman Stephen Nnabue’s four years as part of the Oregon school’s program. The 2013 Mount Si alum from Snoqualmie started his last game at offensive guard for Linfield, and Nnabue becomes the third former Wildcat to see his college career come to an end with the end of his team’s season. He joins fellow 2013’s Methus Weldon (Berry-GA) and Hunter Malberg (Azusa Pacific) in that category.
We congratulate Linfield on another fine football season, and Nnabue for completing his four years at the college level.
