No, it wasn't. Glen Oaks was in the 4A semifinal and because of the way scheduling worked, they got first rights to Memorial. Glen Oaks chose Memorial and CHS got Olympia.

It has to have been the largest crowd ever at Olympia. People were three to four deep standing in the endzones

And it was the first live statewide broadcast of a HS football game. There had been other statewide broadcasts but they were delayed.
