LIVE GAME RECAP: Curtis Loses To Puyallup In Gut-Wrenching Fashion, 35-28

In a game that saw multiple lead changes, the other Vikings ended up getting the win. Patch user, University Place City Council candidate and avid Viking fan Howard Lee was at tonight's game and kept users updated all night.

Curtis homecoming game was exciting, but the wrong team won according to my perspective.

The game was close, with most of it played around the 50-yard-line. However, the suspense ended in the last minute when Puyallup made the final and game-winning score. I love high school sports not only for the pure excitement of the competition, but the way it generates community spirit. Barb and I can't wait until next weeks game. Go Viks! Howard and Barb
