For those who discounted my claims that Ubly would be the team to whom we would be hitching onto that we would following on an extended playoff run...well this week's 42-6 dominating victory over Harbor Beach should convince you.
The Bearcats scored quickly and often in the first half, scoring on a one yard TD run from Jordan Kaufman and then just over three minutes later, Ubly scored again when Mitch Cleary reached paydirt on a nine yard dash.
Six seconds into the second, Cleary scored again on a 15 yard run.
Later in the second with three minutes left, Adam Glaza scored on a three yard run. The two point conversion to Eric Booms gave Ubly a 28-0 advantage.
Ubly had what seemed to be a final scoring chance with two minutes remaining the in the half, but a Kaufman had his pass picked off by Shane Ginther. Kaufman returned the favor several plays later, when he picked off a pass from Ginther with 30 seconds left.
After an illegal block in the back penalty, the Bearcats were backed up to their own 30, but Kaufman connected with Jordan Terrasi on a 60 yard strike, giving them a chance to score with five seconds left. Their first attemot resulted in an incomplete pass and coach Troy Schelke was livid that there was still a second left on the clock. Ubly took adavntage of their final chance when #28 (don't have a roster in front of me right now) scored a 10 yard run. Cleary scored on the two point conversion and Ubly was ahead 36-0.
In the third quarter, Keith Kramer addded a seven yard score to give the Bearcats the 42-0 edge.
Ubly is one of the best teams I have seen and it is interesting to see them dismnatle oppponents. This week's game with Vassar, who lost 21-13 to an injury ravished Reese team, should be more competitive...at least for a half.
Kudos to coach Bill Sweeney for getting Kaufman out early in the second half and then doing the same for several other key players. The only thing that can derail Ubly from an extended post-season run would be injuries; good to see coach Sweeney protecting against that.

Chris,
I went to my first high school football game in over 4 years. It was funny how some things haven't changed...at least with the fans in the stands. I told them not to think this game was going to be a cake walk for the D-Eagles. In the 4th Q, the Lakers were within 3pt. But Deckerville came through using a three back set up, and driving the ball up the gut. The Eagles ended up winning 31-21. But the Lakers made it a game! It was a heck of game in fact. Eagles passing was a little shaky. I hate to look ahead with the big showdown with Ubly...but I think Deckerville is going to have their "A" game. Ubly has got it going on all facets of their team. Defense, Offense, Special teams...It's going to be a good one to see and be at.

Good to hear from you Eddie...
I do think that the Ubly-Deckerville game could be one of the better ones we'll see this year.
I'm counting down the days until this epic. I'm sticking with Ubly in this one, by two TDs. This offense is just way too good for the Eagles to stop.
Hate to say it but Deckerville won't even be able to even hang with UBLY. Deckerville had a nice lead against Lakers and almost lost it. Deckerville is rated way to high in the polls.
