The students brought a variety of paints and mixed their own custom colors. “Instead of brushstrokes, we’re doing more dabbing, because it gives [a] better impression of tree foliage, rather than looking like actual brush strokes, because if we’re painting trees, we need it to look like trees,” Crawford said.](https://wlhsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/IMG_2397-1200x900.jpg)

The football season isn’t over just yet, as the Lions made it into the playoffs with a record of 8—1, securing them a spot as one of the top four teams in the championship.
While the Lions’ one loss was to Lake Oswego, they brought it back for the next game on Oct. 25. The team played against Tualatin in their second to last game of the regular season.
The game was hosted by Tualatin, and the following game against Oregon City was also an away game, which made the Lions’ game against Lake Oswego on Oct. 18 their final home game.
After a bye week, a week without an official game, the team’s next game will be their first playoff game after a high-scoring victory for the Lions against Oregon City.
Cal Royer, senior, is a running back for the team.
“We’ll have a ‘bye week,’ the first week, which will be nice,” Royer said. “[It will] help us regroup going into playoffs and look to make a state championship run.”
The Lions will be playing in the quarter-finals against Sherwood this Friday, Nov. 15 at 7 p.m., with the game to be held at West Linn.
