Cats drop a heart breaker to the Beavers!
Early on, it didn't look as if Beaverton, which defeated No. 2 Southridge last week, would need punt-block heroics or a furious comeback to overcome Westview. The Beavers scored touchdowns on their first three offensive series, staking Beaverton to a 19-7 lead after the first quarter.
Westview (3-3, 0-2) countered by turning to its running game, which kept Beaverton's offense sidelined for most of the second quarter. The Wildcats pulled to within 19-14 at halftime, scoring both touchdowns on passes from Josh Hill to Hayes Garrity.
Westview seized the momentum shortly after halftime as the Wildcats scored two touchdowns in the first eight minutes of the third quarter to take a 28-19 lead. Although Beaverton's offense finished with 455 total yards, the Beavers appeared on the verge of defeat.
Beaverton came back with a huge Blocked punt and rallied to win this one! On to Week three in the ever so tought metro league!

Westview Drops Metro Opener to Jesuit!
It was a rainy night and the ball would just not stay in the Wildcats Possession this night. Jesuit led by Anthony Blake, Dylan Jackson, and Keanon Lowe were just too much for the Cats. The game did feature some nice offensive series by Josh Hill and the Wildcat Offense but mistakes costs the Cats this Game: 45-7 Jesuit. Expect to see Jesuit go deep into the Post Season as they are for sure one of the top 2-3 teams in the State of Oregon once again. The three aforementioned athlete's are probably the three best offensive weapons Jesuit has ever had in combination. Tough loss....now the Cats prepare for Beaverton in Week #2!

Westview slips to Canby in Close Game
The Wildcats entered tonight's contest at Canby High School at 3-0 and ranked sixth in the state but left in considerably worse shape after the Cougars (3-1) pounded out 271 yards rushing and scored 21 straight points in the second and third quarters to beat Westview 35-28.
"I think the big thing now is we know we can play better and we need to get better," said Westview senior tight end Christian Magdaleno, who had four catches for 60 yards, including two touchdown receptions. "We missed a lot of assignments and we’ve just got to play as a team and do what we need."
"We’re still suffering from growing pains," said Westview head coach Greg Fisher. "It’s a team game -- you can have 10 guys doing something right and one guy doing something wrong and it could be the difference between a fumble or a sack or a touchdown, so we’re still working on that."
The Wildcats looked good early, getting a 61-yard TD pass from senior tailback David Aguilar (14 carries for 105 yards and a touchdown) to senior wide receiver Robert Casteel (three catches for 131 yards and a TD) on their first offensive play from scrimmage, and they led 21-7 early in the second quarter when quarterback Josh Hill connected with Magdaleno for a 30-yard score.

Westview Hits 4 FG's to Go 3-0
Article is here: http://highschoolsports.oregonlive.com/game/news/122202/article/20862/
Just another 14-7 game featuring four field goals, a safety and a late touchdown to make it interesting, right?
Patrick Acosta, a week after kicking a 32-yard field goal to push Westview past Grant, kicked four field goals, including a 47-yarder in the third quarter, to score all of the points the sixth-ranked Wildcats needed to get past David Douglas 14-7 on Friday night at David Douglas High School.
"I really didn't have the best of warmups tonight," Acosta said.
No one counts warmups, anyway.
Acosta broke a scoreless first half with a 25-yard field goal as the second quarter expired.
A long punt return by Daniel Aguilar -- opened up by two stiff blocks -- set Westview (3-0) up at David Douglas' 34-yard line with 1:52 left in the half. After an incomplete pass, David Aguilar took a handoff from Josh Hill, started left, reversed field and picked up 20 yards. After a sack and a 13-yard completion from Hill to David Aguilar, Acosta ran onto the field and got Westview on the board.
In the third quarter, the Wildcats turned to their defense. Casey Kasai intercepted David Douglas quarterback Brian Teague's pass at the Scots' 44-yard line with 9:06 left in the third. The Wildcats couldn't do þanything with the ensuing possession but killed the punt at the 1-yard line.
The Wildcats' defense held, and Daniel Aguilar again took a punt deep into Scots territory, this time to the 29. That set up a 32-yard field goal by Acosta that made it 6-0 with 3:31 left in the third quarter.
Acosta forced a touchback on the ensuing kickoff, and two Scots penalties -- the second for intentional grounding -- moved David Douglas (1-2) back to its 2. On third and 28, Westview's Ricky Martin sacked Teague for a safety. That made it 8-0.
Westview took the kick and did almost nothing with it. The Wildcats picked up two yards. Then they brought on Acosta to kick a 47-yard field goal. He added a 26-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to make it 14-0.
"Our defense played well enough to win," David Douglas coach Dan Wood said. And he was happy with the energy, and the way the offense stuck together and kept plugging away.
The Scots finally put together a late drive. Dominique McCallister capped it with a four-yard touchdown run with 1:46 left. He finished with 33 yards rushing on 13 carries. Tyler Maes came in at quarterback for the Scots and completed 6 of 7 passes for 74 yards.
It wasn't quite enough. David Douglas finished the game with 101 more yards of total offense than Westview (203-102); Acosta was the difference.
"I'll give credit to David Douglas, they came at us hard," Westview coach Greg Fisher said. "Honestly, I think we were a little surprised. We've got some work to do."
