Sammamish, WALocal News

In the 2024 season, Eastside Catholic High School's football team, the Crusaders, showcased their talent with a strong 10-2 record and a journey to the Class 3A semifinals. The season began with an exciting 40-14 victory over Eastlake, followed by a remarkable 64-0 win against Garfield, highlighting their offensive and defensive capabilities. However, a previous loss to O'Dea High School set the stage for a challenging rematch in the semifinals. Coach Dom Daste emphasized the importance of maintaining high standards, even among substitutes. In a hard-fought semifinal match, the Crusaders ultimately lost to O'Dea with a score of 17-14.

Despite this disappointment, the team remains proud of their achievements and is determined to pursue the state championship title next season.
