A year ago, the Kent-Meridian High volleyball team was on the outside looking in.
The Royals finished the regular season in a three-way tie for the fourth-and-fifth postseason berths from the South Puget Sound League North Division, then were eliminated in mini-playoff that also involved Kentridge and Tahoma.
Talk about a lonely feeling.
Marcel Noebels scored the shootout winner Friday night at ShoWare Center to lead the Seattle Thunderbirds to a 3-2 shootout victory over the Lethbridge Hurricanes.
The game was tied 2-2 after 60 minutes to send the game to a shootout.
Burke Gallimore shot first for the T-Birds in the shootout. He broke into the zone on the right side and fired a snap shot from the slot that hit Anderson's glove and trickled into the back of the net.
Her body needed a break, but her mind wouldn’t listen.
Mind over matter?
For years, it had worked out exactly that way for former Kent-Meridian High multi-sport star Melanie Vertrees. From gymnastics to swimming, volleyball to basketball, cross country to track, Vertrees did it all growing up, and while attending the East Hill school.
The ball hasn’t bounced the way of the Kent-Meridian High football team for the last several years.
On Saturday, Oct. 2, however, the Royals finally had one go their way.
Defensive end Luke Barzie made the fourth-quarter strip of a Thomas Jefferson running back, and Brandon Harris swooped in for the recovery, helping the Royals secure a 38-34 victory over Thomas Jefferson in a South Puget Sound League North Division game.

Things are finally coming together for the Kentridge High girls soccer team.
After a slow start to the season, the Chargers got on track last week thanks to a huge offensive performance by Katie Clayton.
Clayton scored one goal, and assisted on four others on Sept. 23, lifting the Chargers past Mount Rainier 6-2 in a South Puget Sound League North Division game.
They’ve been beaten up and bloodied.
Injuries have become an all-too common theme this fall for the Kentwood High girls soccer team.
“We’re just hoping we can compete with each other in practice and not knock each other out for the game,” said Kentwood coach Aaron

Inside. Outside. Up and over.
When it comes to the Auburn High football team's rushing game, pick your poison. The Trojans have been successful — and then some — with all three options since returning to the South Puget Sound League North Division two years ago. In fact, since returning to the North, the Trojans have run the league ragged, winning the past two league championships without a loss.
The Seattle Thunderbirds defeated the Portland Winterhawks 4-1 Saturday evening in their home opener at the ShoWare Center in Kent.

More than at any point during the past decade, the race for the South Puget Sound League North Division title on the volleyball court appears to be up in the air.
“It really will be wide open,” said Kent-Meridian coach Michael Christiansen. “I think for a team to win our league, it has to go undefeated.”
Talk to Glen Goodall for just a few minutes, and the excitement is palpable. Through the twang of a slight Canadian accent, the former Thunderbird phenom’s voice goes up a few notches when he talks about his upcoming trip.
He’s going back to where it all started: to the team that retired his jersey after six glorious years of making fans sit on the edge of their seats.
