Week
8 shook up West Michigan and let's take a look at some of the
performances that made it happen.
Caledonia: The
Scots beat Lowell 33-0 and showed why they are one of the best teams in
West Michigan. Tanner Christian threw 2 touchdowns to Eddie Kelly,
Jalen Burton punched in a TD, and Christian added a rushing touchdown
as well. The defense shut down the Red Arrows and everything was
working for Caledonia. The Scots find themselves in the playoffs after
picking up their 6th win and in a position to have a shot at an OK
White Conference title.
Carter
Masek (LB, East Grand Rapids): Masek blocked a
punt and returned it for a touchdown in the 4th quarter of East Grand
Rapids' 31-7 win over Grand Rapids Christian. The TD increased EGR's
lead from 17-7 to 24-7 and helped put the game out of reach.
Bryce
Witham (TE/DE, West Catholic): Witham had 3
receptions for 77 yards and all 3 of those receptions went for
touchdowns on the night. Defensively he had 7 tackles (3 TFL) including
a sack.
Michael
Ivy (RB, East Kentwood): Ivy racked up 248
yards and 3 touchdowns in East Kentwood's 36-3 win over Rockford. He
scored all 3 of his touchdowns in the 2nd half as the Falcons jumped to
the top of the OK Red standings.
Char
and Kenny Willekes (RB, Northpointe Christian): Char
scored 4 touchdowns and ran for 183 yards, while Kenny added 126 yards
and 2 touchdowns. Char averaged 18.3 yards per carry and Kenny averaged
14.
Brian
Cappiello (RB, Grandville): Cappiello ran for
186 yards and 2 touchdowns in a 53-18 win over Grand Haven. He added a
39-yard TD reception in the win.
Nolan
Meekhof (RB, Grandville): Meekhof joined
Cappiello with a 100-yard game once again. This week Meekhof had 144
yards and 3 touchdowns to help Grandville pick up their 4th win of the
season.
Geff
Plasman (RB, South Christian): Plasman
ran for 192 yards and 3 touchdowns to lift South Christian to a 35-23
win over Middleville TK. The win gives South Christian at least a share
of the 2014 OK Gold Championship.
