Bellingham, WASports

The Lynden Lions made history by winning their first state volleyball championship, defeating Ellensburg in straight sets. In MLB news, the Seattle Mariners announced a five-year contract with first baseman Josh Naylor, who had a strong season with a . 299 batting average and 19 stolen bases. On the NFL front, the Seahawks suffered a disappointing 21-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, which ended their four-game win streak and placed them second in the NFC West. Jason Myers' missed 61-yard field goal attempt at the end was pivotal in the defeat.

The Seahawks will look to bounce back against the Tennessee Titans next week. Former Seahawks safety Kenny Easley, a Hall of Famer, passed away at the age of 66, remembered for his impact on the franchise. The Lions' volleyball victory and the Mariners' contract with Naylor highlight a significant weekend for local sports. Meanwhile, the Seahawks' loss raises concerns about their playoff aspirations.
