Othello Huskies Football
EVERETT - Backup quarterback Connor Kruse ran for three touchdowns and threw for another as Archbishop Murphy crushed Othello 34-0.
The Wildcats scored on their initial possession of the first quarter on a 15-yard run by Ricky Gordon to go up 7-0.
Kruse came in Midway through the second quarter to take over for starting quarterback Hans VanderWel who got banged up, and scored two touchdowns, to put Archbishop Murphy up 21-0 at halftime.
The first score by Kruse came on a 1-yard quarterback sneak. The second score, another 1-yard run by Kruse, was set up after the Huskies mishandled the snap on a punt to give the Wildcats the ball on the Othello 10-yard line.
Archbishop Murphy scored again in the third quarter on a 26-yard pass from Kruse to Gordon, and one more time in the fourth on a Kruse 16-yard run to close the door on the Huskies season.
Othello got inside the Wildcats 10-yard line three times during the game, but were turned back on each scoring attempt. Two turnovers inside the Archbishop Murphy 5-yard line didn't help the Huskies cause.

“There are six conference rooms at city hall, and I never get them straight, so I thought a great way to do it, was to name one of them after Ron Edinger because of all his service to the city and our community, which is vast,” Gookin said. “So, I talked to Nancy and asked if it would be okay with me dedicating a conference room after Ron, and she's like, 'oh, absolutely.’”
