Super Bowl 60 ended with a 29–13 victory for the Seattle Seahawks over the New England Patriots on Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, California. While there aren’t many Seahawks or Patriots fans at Lebanon High School, a small group of students followed the game closely — including senior Blake Hesler, a longtime Seattle fan.
The Seahawks relied on strong defense and consistent scoring throughout the game. Seattle built a steady lead with key defensive stops, an interception returned for a touchdown, and multiple field goals. The Patriots struggled to find momentum until late in the fourth quarter, but the Seahawks maintained control to secure the win.
For some fans, the matchup brought back memories of the teams’ first Super Bowl meeting, when Seattle fell short in a close loss. This time, the outcome was different.
“As a Seahawks fan, this one meant a lot,” Hesler said. “After losing to the Patriots the first time, it was great to see them come back and win.”
