Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Riley Mccoy stepped things up a notch to give Olympic the 'W'. Mccoy turned in nothing short of a gem, making three total tackles (1.0 for loss). He showed off some serious burst, turning on the afterburners on one carry for 53 yards.
If the past is any indication, Mccoy could be in store for another big game when he takes on Sequim on Friday. When Mccoy last faced the Wolves back in October of 2023, he picked up three sacks, forced a fumble, and made nine total tackles.
