LYNDEN – Seaquam Secondary ran 61 plays. Lynden Christian ran just 25. The Seahawks totaled 285 yards of offense, and the Lyncs had 269 yards. However, Lynden Christian made the most of Seaquam’s mistakes, and ended up beating the Seahawks 60-6 on Friday night.
Seaquam turned the ball over six times, five of them on interceptions, in which three of those were returned for touchdowns. LC also blocked a Seahawk punt on the fifth play of the game, which set up the first score of the game, a 5-yard slant from junior quarterback Jeremiah Wright to senior wide receiver Lane Dykstra.
Junior defensive back Tyson Bajema scored a few plays later on a 20-yard pick six, and senior wide receiver Tyler Sipma followed that up with two touchdown receptions to close out the first quarter. One from Wright, and one from senior lefty Griffin Dykstra. Wright completed all five of his pass attempts for 89 yards and two scores.
Junior inside linebacker Brody Bouwman intercepted a pass in the second quarter, and he sprinted 49 yards down the left sideline to open up the scoring in the second quarter, and that was followed up by another pick-six, this time a 51-yarder by sophomore linebacker Trey Bosman.
The Lyncs also got interceptions from junior defensive end Treven Blair and junior cornerback Dawson Bouma.
Senior running back Isaac Paxton closed out the first half with a 2-yard touchdown run.
After catching a pair of passes for 60 yards in the first half, standout senior Kade Eldridge got in the end zone twice in the third quarter. One from five yards out, and the other on a spectacular 96-yard run that showed off his power and speed.
The Lyncs (1-0) will play host to Archbishop Murphy on Friday at 7:00.
