Just chatted with Bainbridge's JR Ritchie, the 35th pick in the MLB draft by the Braves. He's leaving for Atlanta on Thursday and plans on signing his professional contract either Friday or Saturday. Looks forward to enjoying a dinner gathering with family and friends tonight.

- This is how to celebrate winning a state title. Congrats North Kitsap boys basketball!
00:00 - North Kitsap is the first Kitsap County team to make the state finals in football since South Kitsap in 1997.
00:00 - Olympic College men's basketball team just won its first NWAC region title since 1995. Beat Skagit Valley 80-62.
- This one hurts a lot. I honestly can't think of a more beloved coach in Kitsap. Rest in peace Dave.
- Maybe it's just me, but when I was in high school, I didn't need a coach telling me I needed to get good grades. My parents made it clear it was my job. If I didn't get A/Bs, I'd blame one person: me. HS was easy compared to college. If you can't hang in HS, just wait ...
- North Kitsap's Holly Beaudoin is a state champion at last!!!!
00:00 - South Kitsap's 21-game losing streak is over! Wolves beat Rogers! 31-14 Final!
- The @SouthKitsapSD school board tonight approved budget cuts that will eliminate the high school athletic director position. I'll tell you this: the folks that will inherit those duties better be ready to work loooooong days starting in 2019-20.
- Klahowya honored the lives of former players Lucas Weaver, Gian King and Keigan Langholff before Friday's game.
