Behind a stingy defense and efficient offense, Eastlake defeated rival Redmond 29-0 Friday night on the Plateau.

The Wolves received two TDs from senior running back Kyle Lappano. He scored on runs of 6 and 32 yards, finishing with 215 yards on 28 carries. Lappano was just one yard shy of tying the school record set last season by Cameron Hunt. The senior now leads KingCo in rushing with 638 yards in four games.

Colton Teglovic added a 23-yard fumble return for a TD, while kicker John Kilburg connected on three field goals. He knocked in one from 26 yards, another from 46 and his longest from 47 — just one yard shy of tying the school record.

Eastlake improved to 3-1 overall with the victory.

The Wolves travel to Newport (3-1) next week for a matchup of huge significance in the KingCo Crest playoff picture.
