Wolverines started the game in typical Wolverine fashion, and jumped out to an early 14-0 lead. The offensive line did a wonderful job opening holes for M.Fyfe, and protecting quarterback T.Ward when they needed to throw. The defence did its job as well, and did not allow the Buckeye offence much.
When the team changed sides in the 2nd quarter, the momentum started to swing. There was a strong wind that definitely affected the game. The Buckeyes were able to score 13 points in the second, making the score 14-13 going into halftime. Great work by M.Mendro and the Dline blocking the Buckeyes extra point attempt.
The Wolverines started strong in the 3rd quarter marching the ball down the field, and capping it off with J.Mulatu's first career TD. The defence gave up a huge run to the Buckeyes early in the third and it looked like the Buckeyes were going to finish the drive with a TD. That's when M.Mraovic stepped up with some great coverage and intercepted the Buckeyes pass in the endzone. The Buckeyes were able to move the ball against the Wolverine defence between the 30s, but when they needed to step up and stop the Buckeyes from scoring they did. They allowed the Buckeyes to score one more TD, but it was at a time after J.Kennedy had an amazing interception for a TD all but sealing the win for the Wolverines.
Here is J.Kennedy's Pic Six:
Another play that needs mentioning is the one below. You're going to notice that our linebacker J.Bertrand gets knocked on his but. The reason the play is great, is that Bertrand gets up, hustles and then makes the tackle. An excellent example how you never give up on a play. Great job Bertrand:
The Wolverines seem to be peaking at the right moment winning their third win in a row. Their record now sits at 4wins and 2losses with one tough game to play in the regular season, and that game is next Thursday against the St.Paul AA Crusaders:
Be sure to come out and support your Wolverines!
Let's go Wolverines!
