The Naselle Comets entered this season with a roster full of question marks and a desire to “surprise some people.” And after 12 weeks of football it’s safe to say those Comets succeeded in making a name for themselves while surprising all but two of their foes on the schedule this season.

But Naselle’s playoff run came to an end on Saturday with a 61-26 loss to No. 4 ranked Almira-Coulee-Hartline at Lion’s Field in Moses Lake.

“We didn’t play our best and we played a good team,” Naselle head coach Kevin McNulty said.
