Former Federal Way teammates catching on just fine for UW, Montana

John Meagher gets confused.

If the longtime Federal Way High School football coach can’t park himself in front of a television on Saturdays to watch college football games, he logs onto his Facebook account instead.

And usually, the slogan pops up: No. 6 for “6.”

Except Meagher isn’t sure which of his former standouts – Chico McClatcher, now at the University of Washington, and Keenan Curran, now at Montana – has scored a touchdown. Both receivers wear the No. 6 jersey. They call themselves the “Sixers.”

“It’s hard to tell sometimes,” Meagher said.

The two former teammates will be on the same field, but on opposite sidelines Saturday as seventh-ranked UW hosts the Grizzlies at Husky Stadium.
