When, where: 7 p.m. Friday at Kiggins Bowl
Records: Prairie (1-2, 0-1 3A GSHL); Fort Vancouver (2-1, 0-0 3A GSHL); 3A Greater St. Helens League game.
Game notes: This could be one of the more entertaining games of the week, as both teams are looking for a spark that could boost them into playoff contention. … The Falcons have had success threw the air. QB Colin Seitz has passed for 566 yards in three games … Last week, Prairie’s defense stepped up in 20-13 loss to Mountain View, holding the Thunder to seven points heading into the fourth quarter … Fort will bring a more balance attack … QB Richard Vansiclen can throw or run … Fort RB Jordan Vela is a do-everything player for the Trappers. He leads Fort in rushing and receiving, and last week he helped out in the kicking game.
The Columbian’s take: This game could either way, and likely will be decided by turnovers and special teams. Prairie’s air attack makes the Falcons dangerous, but Fort’s balance may be the key. PICK: FORT VANCOUVER
