If you're looking for a Friday night plan, the Falcons are at home. Ridgeline beat Cheney 28-20 to win the school's first football league title, in the program's sixth season. They're also in the postseason for the first time in three years, and they earned a home game in the Round of 32, hosting No. 22 Gig Harbor tonight at 6 p.m.
It didn't start that way. West Valley beat Ridgeline 14-7 in the opener, and senior defensive back Ryder Cross said the loss "really reset us." Eight straight wins followed. Coach Andy Olson says his team still has "something" to prove in Spokane, and kicker Braxton Dickerhoff has the simpler take: "How can you not be excited?"
- Opponent: No. 22 Gig Harbor (5-3), at Ridgeline
- Kickoff: tonight at 6 p.m.
