Harrington, a Washington State commit, also tied a state record with 10 touchdown passes in the victory. He has been on a tear in recent weeks, throwing for 413 yards and six touchdowns in a 49-13 win over Bellingham last Friday.
The previous state record of 613 yards was held by Brett Rypien on
Shadle Park (Spokane), who established that mark in 2013. Sam Huard of
Kennedy Catholic (Burien) in 2018 and Nathaniel Holcolmb of
Puyallup in 2016 had previously thrown for 10 touchdowns in a game.

The 6-foot-1, 190-pound Harrington has now thrown for 2,424 yards and 32 touchdowns this season, leading Anacortes to a 7-1 record. He threw for 3,372 yards as a junior as the Seahawks went 7-3.
Harrington has two Class 2A state titles at Anacortes, including his sophomore year in which he threw for more than 1,700 yards in a platoon quarterback system.
