Your season opening games are both under consideration by Seattle media for their games of the week.

KIRO 7 has an open poll for fans to pick their game of the week from the following:

Q13 has a few more games to pick from, with the highest vote-earner getting covered:

  • Gig Harbor at Olympia
  • Bethel at Rogers
  • River Ridge at Cedarcrest
  • Mount Si at Eastlake
  • Arlington at Glacier Peak
  • Mariner at Lake Stevens

Click on the Arlington or Marysville-Pilchuck game for a link to the poll. Vote early and often!

Danielle As my editor has reminded me, not all games have four quarters. But I'm naming this blog for the Fifth Quarter festivities that took place after every Wisconsin football game (my alma mater). From the Wisconsin marching band's website: "Win or lose, thousands of fans stay after to celebrate with the Band making The Fifth Quarter the Wisconsin Band's most beloved tradition." Likewise, I hope to celebrate the best of the area's teams and athletes here, regardless of the game's result.
