Vashon ended their season on Saturday night, Nov. 4, with a 58-0 loss to Bellevue Christian at the Sammamish High School stadium.

The Pirates went 3 and out on their first possession of the game. Bellevue led 12-0 after the 1st quarter and 44-0 at halftime. The Vikings added two more touchdowns in the second half of both teams’ season finale.

Top offensive play for Vashon came in the 2nd quarter when Ricky Rassmussen hauled in a 28 yard reception from Sawyer Ranney.

Thanks go out to the friends and families who made the trek for the final game of the season. Big thanks go to all of the seniors — fabulous men and great leaders. A great job was done by all the Pirate underclassmen this year. And as always — GO PIRATES.
