Game notes: The Trappers have lost three straight since posting back-to-back wins in September. Fort will try to regroup after coming unglued in a 56-7 loss to Mountain View last week. … Columbia River’s season is a mirror image of Fort’s, having won three in a row after losing back-to-back games in September. … After scoring nine total points in those two losses, River is averaging 32 points a game in their last three wins. … River RB Remick Kawawaki has rushed for 627 yards and four touchdowns. He has rushed for more than 100 yards in each of River’s last three wins. … Fort QB Richard Vansiclen has passed for 776 yards this season, but struggled last week, going 9 of 18 for 57 yards.
Columbian’s take: Columbia River’s winning streak can be attributed to improvement, as the Chieftains have a young roster that is gaining experience and confidence each week. Fort is better than what it showed last week. The Trappers will need to be better to keep up with River. PICK: Columbia River
