November 22, 2013

There are probably only a few surprises left as MHSAA 11-player football teams head into the second-to-last weekend of the season. 

But there is plenty for us to tell about the 32 teams that have made it to Saturday's Semifinals. 

See below for details on all 16 games, including some of the stories behind their runs and the players to watch for each. 

All will be played Saturday. Click for a full schedule including times, and make sure to follow @MHSAA on Twitter for in-game updates all day Saturday. 

Division 1

Flint Carman-Ainsworth (11-1) vs. Clarkston (11-1) at Lake Orion

Carman-Ainsworth is headed to its first Semifinal thanks in part to a defense allowing only nine points a game, but also on the legs of dynamic playmaker Jevonte Alexander. The senior quarterback/receiver/defensive back has run for 901 yards and nine touchdowns, thrown for 390 yards and five scores and returned two interceptions, a kickoff and a punt for scores as well. Clarkston has made four Semifinals over the last 15 seasons, but is playing for its first championship game berth. Balance has been key – junior quarterback D.J. Zezula has thrown for 2,156 yards and 17 scores and senior running back Ian Eriksen has run for 1,055 yards and 19 touchdowns.

Detroit Catholic Central (10-2) vs. Detroit Cass Tech (12-0) at Troy Athens

This is a rematch of the last two Division 1 championship games – both Cass Tech wins. Familiar faces will abound for those who saw those matchups. Cass Tech has some of the state’s top playmakers in quarterback Jayru Campbell, running backs Michael Weber and Deon Drake and receiver Damon Webb. Seniors Zach Bock and Dylan Roney are two-way standouts in the DCC backfield and on defense. Senior Connor Holton sees the ball most, with 975 of the team’s 3,107 rushing yards plus 11 scores.

Division 2

Muskegon (11-1) vs. Portage Central (12-0) at East Kentwood

The reigning runner-up Big Reds certainly have more experience at this stage as they hope to play for a fourth MHSAA title over the last decade. Senior quarterback Deshaun Thrower has been magnificent in keeping them in the hunt running for 1,575 yards and 24 touchdowns and throwing for 1,110 yards and 12 scores. Portage Central would be a deserving finalist as well; the Mustangs are scoring 43 points per game during their best season ever and first run to the Semifinals since 1977. A pair of senior running backs has carried the team to more than 4,000 yards rushing – Jerrod Davis has gained 1,586 yards with 26 touchdowns on the ground and Jacob Allan has run for 1,367 yards and 21 scores.

Birmingham Brother Rice (12-0) vs. Detroit Martin Luther King (10-1) at Wayne State University

This might beat out Cass Tech/DCC as the most anticipated Semifinal in the Greater Detroit area. Brother Rice is the reigning Division 2 champion and has been challenged only a few times during the final two months of longtime coach Al Fracassa’s final season after earning three wins by nine or fewer points during the first five weeks of the fall. Junior quarterback Alex Malzone is one of the most exciting at his position in the state, with 2,339 yards and 19 TDs through the air. Detroit King is having its best season since winning the MHSAA title in 2007 and has two of the state’s top two-way standouts in Avonte Maddox and Jalen Embry.

Division 3

Zeeland West (11-1) vs. Stevensville Lakeshore (9-3) at Vicksburg

Up in Division 3 for the second straight season, Zeeland West is in position to reach Ford Field for the second time in three years after winning Division 4 in 2011. The Dux grind down opponents with the run, rushing for 4,739 yards this season led by senior Danny Bauder’s 1,585 yards and 26 touchdowns on the ground. Lakeshore will be playing its fourth Semifinal seeking its first trip to an MHSAA championship game and is battle-tested against a strong league that includes Division 2 semifinalist Portage Central. Senior quarterback Mike Adams leads the way with 1,032 yards and 18 touchdowns running and 888 yards and 14 scores through the air.

DeWitt (12-0) vs. St. Clair (11-1) at Goodrich

The stories of these two vary considerably despite their similar successes this fall. St. Clair is making its first Semifinal trip, while DeWitt is playing in its ninth over the last 13 seasons and seeking its first trip to the Finals since 2004. Where they are alike is in their offensive prowess – both are led by strong dual-threat quarterbacks who direct strong rushing attacks. St. Clair senior quarterback Jared Tobey has run for 1,327 yards and 22 touchdowns and thrown for 886 yards and 16 touchdowns, with senior running back Bo Meldrum adding another 1,310 yards and 13 scores on the ground. DeWitt junior quarterback Jake Johnson missed time with an injury but has returned and total thrown for 1,644 yards and 28 scores and run for 471 more yards. Junior running back Ben Heinritz is averaging 8.8 yards per carry in gaining 1,291 total with 15 scores on the ground.

Division 4

Comstock Park (12-0) vs. Grand Rapids South Christian (11-1) at Rockford

South Christian junior quarterback Jon Wassink missed out on last season’s championship game win because of an injury, but he’s come back to lead another surge with 2,507 yards and 22 touchdowns passing and 1,002 yards and 20 touchdowns rushing. Junior running back Geff Plasman has added another 1,091 yards and 14 scores to the running attack. Comstock Park is in its third straight Semifinal, having fallen in the last two to the eventual MHSAA champion. But this also is the first the Panthers have entered undefeated, with a good deal of credit going to sophomore quarterback Pat Naughton (2,233 yards, 15 TDs passing) and senior running back Jake Bush (1,361 yards and 24 TDs rushing, 467 yards and four TDs receiving).

Lansing Sexton (12-0) vs. Marine City (11-1) at Ortonville Brandon

Sexton’s best season ever now will include its first Semifinal since 1989. The defense has been impressive against a tough set of opponents, giving up only 11.3 points per game. But the speedy offense has been equally difficult to stop keyed by an incredible group of junior playmakers – quarterback Malik Mack has thrown for 1,552 yards and 15 touchdowns, running back Avonte’ Bell has run for 1,033 yards and 18 scores and running back JaVon Wray has rushed for 1,222 yards and 18 scores (although Wray missed the Regional Final with an injury). This will be Marine City’s fourth Semifinal in seven seasons, and the Mariners come in with a similar attack. Junior quarterback Alex Merchant has thrown for 1,582 yards and 15 scores, while senior running back Tait Sapienza has run for 1,077 yards and junior Jarrett Mathison has run for 1,068.   

Division 5

Menominee (12-0) vs. Muskegon Oakridge (11-1) at Northern Michigan University

An 18-year playoff streak has been capped by Menominee’s best run since winning its last MHSAA title in 2007. The Maroons’ always-prolific offense has been its best ever with a school-record 572 points, led by junior quarterback Justin Brilinski (1,073 yards/13 TDs rushing, 1,330 yards/13 TDs passing). Oakridge is looking to return to the Finals for the first time since its last championship in 2008 and despite losing its leading runner Dan Shoop for the playoffs with an injury. Senior quarterback Austin Wright has run for 894 yards and seven scores and thrown for 1,499 yards and 22 touchdowns.

Grand Rapids West Catholic (8-4) vs. Livonia Clarenceville (12-0) at Battle Creek Harper Creek

After just missing on last season’s Division 5 championship – losing 12-9 to Portland in the Final – West Catholic nearly missed the playoffs at 5-4 and made it only after a one-point win in Week 9. But back are senior running back Andy Corey (713 yards, 13 TDs rushing) and junior quarterback Travis Russell (518 yards/9 TDs rushing, 2,177 yards/18 TDs passing) to try to finish what they started a year ago. Standing in the way is Clarenceville’s first Semifinalist team since 2001. The Trojans are giving up only 11.9 points per game while riding the attack led by junior quarterback Jacob Kubiak (1,230 yards/16 TDs passing) and senior running back Jalen Bryant (1,199 yards/14 TDs rushing).

Division 6

Ithaca (12-0) vs. Montrose (12-0) at Midland

This is the fourth season in a row these two have met in the playoffs, and Ithaca is hoping for the same result as it goes for its fourth straight MHSAA title at 55th straight win. Senior quarterback Travis Smith has been incredible in trying to get his team back to Detroit with 2,773 yards and 35 touchdowns passing (completing 73 percent of his throws) and 475 yards and nine scores rushing. Montrose is keyed by a talented quarterback as well – senior Riley Warren has run for 730 yards and 10 scores and thrown for 1,485 yards and 19 touchdowns, with senior Malik Taylor catching 14 scoring passes and gaining 1,049 receiving yards (plus 782 yards and 11 TDs rushing). But senior Tyler Doyle might be the key to keeping Ithaca’s offense off the field. He’s run for 1,166 yards and 17 scores.

Shelby (11-1) vs. Clinton (12-0) at Middleville Thornapple-Kellogg

Shelby bounced back quickly from its lone loss, in Week 9, to reach its second straight Semifinal. Clinton is in its first since 1990, and both are seeking their first championship game berth. Shelby will try to get there in part with two senior running backs averaging more than 10 yards per carry – Devin Mussell has gained 1,223 yards and 17 touchdowns total on the ground, and Tony Guerra has added 961 yards and 12 scores. Clinton’s backfield is similarly loaded; senior Collin Poore has run for 1,509 yards and 18 touchdowns, while junior quarterback T.J. Baker has thrown for 1,868 yards and 23 scores and run for 641 yards and 16 TDs. The leading receiver is sophomore fullback Mathew Sexton with 33 catches for 1,059 yards (32.1 yards per catch) and 15 scores.

Division 7

Ishpeming (12-0) vs. Harbor Beach (11-1) at Northern Michigan University

This is a matchup of last season’s champion, Ishpeming, against reigning Division 8 champ Harbor Beach. They have just one loss between them this fall, but the Pirates fell only to Division 5 Semifinalist Menominee. Harbor Beach senior quarterback Eli Kraft caught plenty of eyes during last season’s run and has followed up with 1,248 yards and 24 touchdowns rushing and 1,770 yards and 19 scores passing while also starring at linebacker. Ishpeming senior quarterback Alex Briones made a similar impression last fall, and during this regular season he ran for 814 yards and 13 scores and threw for 1,050 yards and 13 scores without an interception.

Homer (11-0) vs. Detroit Loyola (12-0) at Chelsea

It’s tough for any MHSAA finalist to bounce back like Loyola has after losing its two best players from last season’s runner-up team. But the Bulldogs have been even more impressive with wins over Detroit Country Day and Detroit East English among others. Loyola is still running strong, with junior Marvin Campbell gaining 1,262 of the team’s 3,553 rushing yards. Homer has advanced to its first Semifinal by outscoring opponents on average 27-5 during the first half with perhaps the most balanced offense left in the playoffs. Homer has run for 2,051 yards and thrown for 2,374, led by seniors Chaz Hopkins (1,400 yards/21 TDs rushing) and quarterback Alex White (2,333 yards/30 TDs passing).

Division 8

Crystal Falls Forest Park (12-0) vs. Beal City (12-0) at Northern Michigan University

The Trojans had to survive some close calls to reach their eighth Semifinal in 10 seasons, but few statewide are more familiar with the pressure that goes along with this late date on calendar. One of those that does understand is Beal City, last season’s Division 8 runner-up, which is making its fifth Semifinal appearance in seven seasons. Forest Park junior running back Lee Graff is in the mold of the team’s typical load carrier with 1,401 yards and 29 touchdowns rushing as one of two backs averaging at least eight yards per carry. But a defense giving up 9.9 points per game must lock down the second-highest scoring offense in MHSAA history. The Aggies are averaging 57.6 points per game on the strength of a running game that’s gained more than 3,500 yards and is led by seniors Ty Rollin (1,140 yards/23 TDs rushing) and Hayden Huber (813 yards/19 TDs).

Muskegon Catholic Central (10-2) vs. New Lothrop (12-0) at Greenville

This will be, incredibly, Muskegon Catholic Central’s 18th Semifinal appearance over the 39 years of the playoffs, and the Crusaders are playing for their first trip to Detroit since 2008. Rather, they are running for the Finals led by junior quarterback Nick Holt (1,051 yards/21 TDs rushing, 777 yards/10 TDs passing) and senior Alex Lewandoski (1,068 yards/18 TDs rushing). This will be New Lothrop’s third Semifinal in eight seasons, and the Hornets prepared for this type of game by loading their nonleague schedule with the likes of Traverse City St. Francis and Pewamo-Westphalia. Senior Amari Coleman might be the most dangerous offensive player on the field – he’s averaging 19.4 yards per carry (for 987 with 18 TDs) and 16.1 per catch, and also has returned five punts and a kickoff for scores.

Drive for Detroit: Playoff Week 3 Review

November 12, 2018

By Geoff Kimmerly
Second Half editor

The results are fewer at this stage of the MHSAA Football Playoffs, but the headlines are louder with more on the line and the best of the best running into each other with only a few weeks left to play.

This third round saw our 8-Player Finals pairings set – with those championship games taking place this Saturday at Northern Michigan University’s Superior Dome. Morrice will face Pickford in Division 1, while Rapid River will take on Onekama in Division 2.

Meanwhile, in 11-Player Regional Finals, we saw history made for Belleville, Holton and Breckenridge to name a few. We also saw the end to Pewamo-Westphalia’s attempt at making a fourth a straight MHSAA championship game, and said good-bye to one of Michigan’s most prominent high school programs and the winningest coach in state history.

Division 1

HEADLINER: Saline 13, Rockford 12 (OT) The Hornets’ impressive body of work this season grows by the week. By outlasting Rockford with a 2-point conversion stand, they advanced to the Semifinals for the first time since finishing Division 1 runner-up in 2014. Add to this one to wins over East Kentwood two weeks ago and Grand Rapids Catholic Central in Week 2 – and giving unbeaten Clinton Township Chippewa Valley its closest game of the season in a five-point Week 1 loss – and it continues to be quite a run. Rockford also should be proud; after opening 1-3 this fall, the Rams not only extended a record 24-year playoff streak but won their first District title since 2015. Click for more from the Ann Arbor News and see below for highlights from FOX 17.

Regional Recap: Clarkston 13, Lapeer 0 The reigning Division 1 champion Wolves (10-2) locked down their fourth Regional title in six seasons and eliminated Lapeer (11-1) for the third time over the last five – and second time during that string where the Lightning entered the game undefeated. Belleville 13 West Bloomfield 10 The Tigers (12-0) have broken through with their first Regional title, defeating last season’s Division 1 runner-up West Bloomfield (9-3) to make their first Semifinal. Clinton Township Chippewa Valley 42, Dearborn Fordson 7 The Big Reds (12-0) are headed to the Semifinals for the first time since 2003 after shutting down a Tractors team that finished 10-2 and was averaging 38 points per game.

Division 2

HEADLINER: Birmingham Groves 53, Livonia Franklin 29 The Falcons (10-2) are headed to their second Semifinals in three seasons after downing Franklin (7-5), a semifinalist a year ago. Groves has run off 10 straight victories since opening this fall 0-2, and the 53 points were a season high. Franklin led at the end of the first quarter 2-0 before the Falcons ran off 21 unanswered points during the second. Click for more from the Oakland Press and see highlights below from State Champs Sports Network.

Regional Recap: Muskegon Mona Shores 58, Portage Northern 28 The Sailors (11-1) also scored a season high to win their second Regional title ever and first since 2014, over a Northern team that at 9-3 tied its program record for wins set in 1981. Midland 43, Walled Lake Western 0 The Chemics (9-3) won their first Regional title since 2007 with one of the most impressive victories of the weekend, handing Western (8-4) its first shutout since the 2016 Division 2 Final. Warren DeLaSalle 21, Port Huron Northern 3 The reigning Division 2 champion Pilots (10-2) ended the winningest season since 1986 for Northern (10-2), which did hold DeLaSalle to its third-fewest points of this fall.

Division 3

HEADLINER: Muskegon 34, Cedar Springs 18 The reigning Division 3 champion Big Reds (12-0) withstood one of their toughest challenges of this season, as Cedar Springs (10-2) trailed by only a point, 13-12, at halftime. Muskegon quarterback Cameron Martinez – who broke La’Darius Jefferson’s school season record of 2,095 rushing yards during the game – ran for 32 and 75-yard scores during the third quarter. The Red Hawks finished with their most wins since going 11-2 in 2000. Click for more from the Muskegon Chronicle and see highlights below from WZZM.

Regional Recap: Zeeland East 50, Parma Western 24 The Chix are headed to the Semifinals for the first time since 1989 when East and West were one school. Parma Western ended its longest playoff run with a school record for wins at 10-2. DeWitt 42, Farmington 7 The Panthers (12-0) bounced back offensively after scoring nine points in the District Final and as a defense giving up eight points per game locked down the Falcons (8-4), who completed their longest run since 2002. Detroit Martin Luther King 54, Allen Park 15 The Crusaders (10-2) won their sixth Regional title in eight seasons, ending Allen Park’s at 9-3 after the Jaguars bounced back from just missing the playoffs in 2017.

Division 4

HEADLINER: Chelsea 21, Farmington Hills Harrison 14 The Bulldogs (9-3) have risen from third in their league during the regular season to win their second Regional title over the last four years, this time under first-year coach Josh Lucas. Chelsea’s win also marked the end of Farmington Hills Harrison football under coach John Herrington, who concluded as the winningest coach in MHSAA history with a 443-112-1 record since starting the program in 1970. Harrison (8-4) is closing next summer. Click for more from the Sun Times News.

Regional Recap: Grand Rapids Catholic Central 35, Escanaba 6 For the third straight season, the two-time reigning Division 4 champion Cougars (11-1) eliminated the Eskymos (9-3), this time holding Escanaba to its fewest points of the fall. Edwardsburg 56, Holland Christian 21 The Eddies (12-0) set up a rematch of last season’s Division 4 Final (a 42-31 loss to GRCC) by scoring more than 50 points for the seventh time this season, ending a nice run for Holland Christian (8-4) with its best record since 2009. Williamston 28, St. Clair 0 The Hornets (10-2) advanced to their first Semifinal since 2010 by shutting out a St. Clair team that finished 9-3 and had scored a combined 132 points over its first two playoff games.

Division 5

HEADLINER: Saginaw Swan Valley 36, Reed City 28 Swan Valley’s side of this bracket began with four of the 30 undefeated teams left in all of 11-player at the end of the regular season, and the Vikings (12-0) remained one by edging another over the weekend. Reed City (11-1) gave Swan Valley its closest game this season and a closer one than when the two met and the Vikings won 29-14 in a Semifinal a year ago. How close was it? Reed City ended the game on Swan Valley’s 2-yard line. Click for more from the Saginaw News and see highlights below from WJRT.

Regional Recap: Hudsonville Unity Christian 39, Kalamazoo United 14 The Crusaders (10-2) advanced to their second Semifinal in three seasons by locking down a Titans offense averaging 53 points per game heading into Saturday. United finished 11-1, its best since the co-op between Hackett and Kalamazoo Christian was formed in 2014. Portland 40, Frankenmuth 6 The Raiders are headed to their first Semifinal since winning Division 5 in 2012 after stopping Frankenmuth (9-3) in its quest to win a third straight Regional title. Marine City 40, Detroit Denby 32 (2OT) The Mariners also finished third in their league during the regular season, but are headed to the Semifinals for the first time since winning Division 4 in 2013. Denby (9-3) concluded its winningest season and longest playoff run both since 2006, with its losses this fall by a combined 18 points.

Division 6

HEADLINER: Montrose 37, Flint Hamady 6 As noted above, this weekend was good to teams finishing third in their leagues this fall. The Rams (10-2) did so in the Mid-Michigan Activities Conference, but with this victory won their first Regional title since 2013 and ended the longest run and winningest season ever for Hamady (11-1). Click for more from the Flint Journal and see highlights below from WEYI.

Regional Recap: Montague 30, Schoolcraft 14 The Wildcats (10-2) reached double-digit wins for the third time in four seasons with their first Regional title since 2009 – when it went on to win the Division 6 title. Schoolcraft (9-3) finished by playing in its first Regional Final since 2013. Traverse City St. Francis 41, Kingsley 20 The Gladiators (12-0) won their third Regional title in four seasons, although Kingsley (10-2) cut the deficit after St. Francis won their first meeting by 35 in Week 4. Jackson Lumen Christi 33, Blissfield 0 Two-time reigning Division 6 champion Lumen Christi (11-0) won its third straight Regional title with its third shutout of the season. Blissfield (7-5) was held scoreless for the first time since 2016.

Division 7

HEADLINER: New Lothrop 26, Pewamo-Westphalia 14 It’s rare that the loudest headline from a football weekend comes from one of the divisions pitting the state’s smaller schools. But it certainly was noticed when New Lothrop (11-1) ended the two-time reigning champ Pirates’ 24-game winning streak. P-W (11-1) had beaten New Lothrop 35-14 in a District Final only a year ago, but now the Hornets will return to the Semifinals for the first time since 2015. Click for more from the Flint Journal.  

Regional Recap: Lake City 34, Roscommon 28 The Trojans (12-0) held off Roscommon (10-2) to make the Semifinals for the second straight season and extend their run of the last two years to a combined 24-1. Cassopolis 23, Monroe St. Mary Catholic Central 22 The Rangers’ defense, giving up now 4.3 points per game, was tested for the first time. But Cassopolis (12-0) won its second Regional title in three years by stopping St. Mary (9-3) on a goal line stand to finish the game. Madison Heights Madison 44, Riverview Gabriel Richard 7 The Eagles (12-0) are returning to the Semifinals after handing a playoff defeat to Gabriel Richard (7-5) for the second straight season.

Division 8

HEADLINER: Holton 14, Mendon 6 The Red Devils’ first playoff season since 2007 now includes its first Regional title ever. Holton (8-4) outlasted annual power Mendon to move on after both reached the playoffs as additional qualifiers at 5-4 to end the regular season. The Hornets, after winning their 10th District title in 12 seasons, finished 7-5. Click for more from the Muskegon Chronicle.

Regional Recap: Breckenridge 12, Ishpeming 6 The Huskies (12-0) have taken the steps from first playoff berth in 2016 since 1993, to first District title ever last season to now first Regional championship. Breckenridge drove north and handed Ishpeming (11-1) its only defeat by locking down an offense averaging 42 points per game entering the weekend. Harbor Beach 35, Flint Beecher 0 The Pirates (11-1) are back in the Semifinals for the first time since making three straight trips from 2012-14. Beecher (8-4) closed its longest playoff run since 2012 in Division 7. Reading 54, Detroit Southeastern 0 The Rangers (12-0) now have shutouts in half of their games this season and their first Regional title since 2008. It was a memorable fall for Southeastern (8-4), which made the playoffs for the first time since 2010 and only two years removed from a 3-24 three-year string.  

8-Player Division 1

SEMIFINAL: Pickford 40, AuGres-Sims 20 The Wolverines (11-1) were giving up only 7.5 points per game and hadn’t scored fewer than 50 this season. But Pickford (12-0) dominated on both sides of the ball, breaking through for its first MHSAA championship game berth after missing in Semifinals the last two seasons. Click for more from the Sault Ste. Marie Evening News and see highlights below from MI Sports Now.

SEMIFINAL: Morrice 40, Colon 8 The Orioles (12-0) will continue their deepest playoff run ever, with this victory securing their first MHSAA Finals berth. Morrice locked down a Colon offense averaging 44 points per game, and the Magi (10-2) gave up a season high. Still, it was a strong 8-player debut for Colon, which went 2-7 in 11-player a year ago and was playing in its first Semifinal in either format. Click for more from the Lansing State Journal.

8-Player Division 2

SEMIFINAL: Onekama 28, Portland St. Patrick 14 The Portagers will play in their first MHSAA football championship game after doubling up last season’s Division 2 runner-up. Onekama (10-2) also set a program record for wins, piling up 20 straight points to hold off the Shamrocks (7-5). Click for more from the Traverse City Record-Eagle.

SEMIFINAL: Rapid River 36, Cedarville 30 One more third-place success story from the weekend. Rapid River (9-3) downed Cedarville 28-20 in Week 7 to eventually lock up that spot in the Great Lakes Conference East, and edged the Trojans (7-5) a second time to reach the 8-Player Finals for the third time this decade and first since 2013.
