The Shorewood T-Birds were drubbed by Marysville-Pilchuck Friday night at Shoreline Stadium, 42-13.

The Tomahawks scored on their first four possessions to take a 28-0 lead, and were never headed.

Flashy sophomore running back Austin Joyner gained 218 yards on 11 carries for four TD's, to go along with three receptions for 33 yards, and two interceptions on defense, to lead the way for the Tommies.

The T-Birds' Anxhelos Pere scored from two yards out with :04 to play in the first half to get Shorewood within shouting distance at the half, 28-7.  The touchdown was set up by Chris Namba's nifty return of an interception.

After Joyner answered with two more TD runs in the third quarter, including a spectacular 71-yard jaunt to finish his night, Shorewood responded with the game's final score when Erik Johnson hauled in Aaron Miller's heave and outraced the defense to the end zone. The play covered 39 yards.

The road for the T-Birds doesn't get any easier as they host powerful Meadowdale next Friday, Sept. 28, with the Rotary Cup being contested the following week, Oct. 5, against Shorecrest.
