The St. Pius X football team bowed out in the first round of the postseason, closing the book on a solid turnaround year under head coach Shaun Stephens.

The Eastside Catholic Crusaders dominated their second-round opponent in Southridge 42-7 in a lopsided win last week.
Next up is Kennewick, which is 9-2 and a tough, physical football team.
VYPE’s Matt Malatesta caught up with Coach Dom Daste as the Crusaders look to continue their march toward a State Title. Their balanced, complementary brand of football has been the key all year — with the defense setting up the offense, and the offense returning the favor.
