Gordon, WR Charlie Perine, WR/DB Van Smith, DL Bryson Hobbs, LB William Harris Players to watch: Edinburgh - QB Caleb Murphy, RB/LB Jarrett Turner, WR/DB Braylon Bryant, WR/DB Caleb Dewey, WR/DB Jackson Hartwell Park Tudor - QB D.J. Recent history: Last year’s 52-10 Panther win was the first meeting between the schools since 2006. Defensive stops might be rare, but whichever side can manage a couple at the right time is likely to come out on top. On the flip side, Northview’s defense - which had allowed 135 points during a three-game losing streak before stomping Edgewood last week - will have to contend with Lothe and the Braves’ spread offense. Stopping the run and getting off the field will be the challenge for the Braves’ defense. Cottee isn’t much of a threat with his arm, but he, Holman and Lee have combined to rush for 2,355 yards and 33 touchdowns. What to look for: A major contrast in styles. Players to watch: Indian Creek - QB Arjun Lothe, RB/DB Jalen Sauer, RB/DB Malachi Mink, WR Jaxon Ramey, OL/DL Daniel Foster Northview - QB Kyle Cottee, RB/DB Imer Holman, RB Tyler Lee, OL/DL Gabe Stockrahm Recent history: The Braves beat the Knights for the WIC championship in 2019, but Northview has won the other three meetings, including a 44-0 rout last season. Even with the quarterback situation up in the air - Pinnick returned from injury last week but split time with Greyson Betts and didn’t make any real attempts to run - the Grizzly Cubs have been playing well, and their opportunistic defense going up against a freshman quarterback who has never really found his rhythm could be the matchup that finally swings this game Franklin’s way.
#Stevens point journal series#
The Hawks have dominated this series for more than a decade, but they’re uncharacteristically down. What to look for: Perhaps more than any other game on the regular-season schedule, this one offers the Grizzly Cubs the chance to make a historic statement. Campbell, DL Slim Tyus, LB Aycen Stevens Franklin - QB Clay Pinnick, RB/LB John Shepard, WR Max Clark, RB/DB Beau Baker, DB Zach Reese Players to watch: Decatur Central - QB Bo Polston, WR Tequan Taylor, DL M.J. Sagarin ratings: Decatur Central 71.11 (62nd), Franklin 81.53 (27th) Recent history: Last year’s 42-7 win was the Hawks’ 10th straight in the series each of the last six has been decided by 20 points or more. This game might just be decided by which team has the ball last. O’Neil has been nearly immaculate throwing the ball this fall, which could spell trouble for an injury-riddled Center Grove secondary, but the combination of the Coyle-Thomeson rushing tandem and the Cherry-Coy aerial connection has been similarly impossible to stop of late. Both of these teams have been on cruise control - nobody has come within 20 points of either in the last month - but the Fighting Irish and the Trojans have a way of canceling one another out more often than not. What to look for: Another clash of the titans going down to the wire. Players to watch: Cathedral - QB Danny O’Neil, RB Carson Johnson, WR Jaron Tibbs, TE Brennan Wooten, DL Kendrick Gilbert, Center Grove - QB Tyler Cherry, RB Micah Coyle, RB Jalen Thomeson, WR Noah Coy, LB Owen Bright Sagarin ratings: Cathedral 99.02 (fourth in Indiana), Center Grove 105.14 (first) Recent history: The Trojans are 6-2 in this series since 2014, but their 21-6 victory last year is just the second of those eight games to be decided by more than seven points. The home team should win convincingly, but … Do not, however, expect the Warriors to take this one lightly this has always been a throw-out-the-records game, and Whiteland will treat it accordingly. If the visitors can do a better job of finishing off drives than they have for much of the season, this could well be a battle. What to look for: This is Mike Campbell’s last regular-season game at the helm of the Woodmen, and he’s usually played Darrin Fisher’s Warriors tougher than records and ratings would indicate - so don’t be surprised if Greenwood hangs around in this one for at least as long as it did against Franklin last week. Players to watch: Greenwood - QB Brock Riddle, RB Alan Burnett, TE Carter Campbell, WR Ethan Pringle, DB Tanner Crouch Whiteland - QB Kevin Denham, RB Peyton Emberton, RB/DB Nyrius Moore-Smith, WR/DB Brady Stanifer, OL/DL Tayton Schakel Sagarin ratings: Greenwood 46.84 (156th in Indiana), Whiteland 87.67 (15th) Recent history: The Warriors have won the last three meetings, including a 42-28 road win last fall.
