October 12th, 2012 - 11:32pm

 (Sequim) -- The Sequim High Wolves earned their first victory of the season in thrilling fashion Friday night, holding off the Klahowya Eagles in the final minute for a 37-32 Olympic League victory.
Trailing 31-13 entering the final quarter, the Eagles rallied for three touchdowns within 2 minutes and 15 seconds -- fueled by a pair of Sequim turnovers -- taking a 32-31 advantage when quarterback Jacob Sheets hit Grady Bashore with a 17-yard touchdown pass with 8:45 remaining.
It was the duo's second scoring connection of the evening.
Sheets completed 12 of 27 passes on the night for 191 yards and 3 touchdowns, also rushing 23 times for 76 yards and a score.
Sequim (1-6 overall, 1-4 in Olympic League play) converted a 4th-and-3 from the Eagles 13 with 2:05 left into a 13-yard Jack Wiker-to-Christian Miles touchdown pass, going ahead 37-32.
Wiker completed 12 of 21 passes for 123 yards and 2 scores, also rushing 25 times for 149 yards and a TD.
Miles caught 5 balls for 57 yards.
Eagles' final drive falls short
Klahowya (4-3 overall, 2-3 in Olympic League play) drove 11 plays into Sequim territory for a 1st-and-Goal at the Wolves 7 with 26 seconds left.
Andrew Shimer sacked Sheets for a 4-yard loss on first down, then Sheets threw 2 successive incompletions on 2nd and 3rd down under tremendous blitz pressure from the Wolves.
On 4th-and-goal from the Sequim 11 with just 11 seconds left, Sheets had a receiver flash open at the goal line on a post pattern, but Bashore could only manage to get one hand on the ball before it fell to the turf incomplete, setting off a raucous Wolves homecoming victory celebration.
Sequim roared to 19-0 lead
Sequim roared to an early 19-0 first quarter lead, scoring first on a 50-yard scoring sprint from Lopaka Yasamura on the second scrimmage play of the contest.
Yasamura packed the pigskin 30 times for 248 yards and 3 visits to the Klahowya end zone.
The Eagles answered the Wolves with 1:33 remaining in the opening period when Sheets finished a drive with an 8-yard run, making it 19-6 for the hosts after one quarter.
The teams continued to exchange touchdowns in the second period, Yasamura scampering 42 yards to pay dirt with 8:25 until halftime and a Wolves bulge of 25-6.
Klahowya running back Latrell Simpson closed the margin to 25-13 on a 2-yard run with 6:51 left in the second.
Yasamura had the final TD of the half at the 3:16 mark from 8 yards and the halftime score of 31-13 Sequim.
Josh Ganowski caught 7 passes for Klahowya, gaining 119 yards and a score.

 Sequim travels to Port Angeles Friday, while Klahowya hosts North Mason.
