Bauman Ties Myhre For Career Completion Record

522 completions. That’s a lot! Consider this, only 12 players in Whatcom County history have ATTEMPTED 522 passes! Nooksack Valley’s Tanner Myhre graduated with 522 completions, and current Pioneer Casey Bauman is currently tied with him. Bauman is also 23 pass attempts and 28 passing yards away from becoming the career leader in both categories.

Bryce Vandenhaak Breaks Whatcom County Record

Is he a running back? Is he a wide receiver? It doesn’t matter, he’s an offensive weapon. Much like Joel Pears was almost 20 years ago, Meridian senior Bryce Vandenhaak has shown time and time again the ability to make huge plays. And, when he caught his third touchdown pass in the first half he broke Rocki Sandusky’s 12-year old Whatcom County record for touchdown receptions in a season. Vandenhaak now has 18, and the season isn’t over. He will have the postseason to add to his record.

Nooksack Valley at Lynden Christian Tonight Will Be HUGE!

There will be a lot of big games tonight, but none bigger than the rematch of the Pioneers and the Lyncs. The winner will travel to Sultan next week for a shot at the state tournament! These two school have had memorable battles over the years. They battled it out for the League Championship in 1989. They had the two most talented squads in the Whatcom County League in 1993. They have each enjoyed long winning streaks against each other. Shown below is a breakdown of each game they have played against each other since 1975.
