Gridiron Chronicles - Roosevelt vs. Seattle Prep - 9/13/2024 at Memorial Field

In this first installment of this docu-series, we follow the legacy that is Metro League Football. Nestled within the confines of Seattle, the Metro League is home to powerhouse Washington state high school football teams, including O'Dea, Eastside Catholic, and a new face on the horizon in the Roosevelt Rough Riders.

Episode one takes you close and in-depth with the Roosevelt. Coached by former Seattle Seahawks legend, 1st round draft pick and Super Bowl Champion, Sam Adams, this Roosevelt squad is stacked with loads of talent.

QB1 is Dalton Anderson, and he has an array of weapons not only in wide receivers Nolan McWilliams and Kaire Griffin, but running backs Deon Vann and Damari King help to fuel this high powered offense.

On the defensive side, you surely cannot forgot about Pana Tuputala, JoJo Paaga, safety Cassidy Bolong-Banks, and the defensive end Makai Davis.

Friday September 13, 2024, at Memorial Field, gently hidden away next to the Space Needle, Roosevelt High School took on cross town Seattle Prep. In a decently high scoring affair, Roosevelt went on to win 22-36 behind Damari King's 2 rushing TDs, Deon Vaan's 1 rushing TD and a connection from Dalton Anderson to Nolan McWilliams for an additional TD.

Seattle Prep is coached by Aaron Mal, and they are also a good football team despite the loss. QB Beau Oaksmith and RB Ezra Maul are a combination that is lightening quick on the offensive side, making explosive play after explosive play.
