OF FRIDAY NIGHT
FLIGHTS AND WE BEGIN WITH
THE TOP SEED IN THE
DIVISION 6 PLAYOFFS
UNBEATEN OCEAN LAKES
TAKING ON 8TH SEED GRANBY
WHICH HAD ONLY
LOST ONE GAME DURING THE
REGULAR SEASON.
OCEAN LAKES HEAD COACH
CHRIS SCOTT WOULD SEE HIS
TEAM ENDURE A
VERY DIFFICULT SITUATION
IN THE FIRST HALF AND LET
ME SHOW YOU. SENIOR
QUARTERBACK CORWIN
CUTLER, CONSIDERED ONE OF
THE TOP QUARTERBACKS IN
THE NATION, HE'S HEADED
TO VIRGINIA,
BUT ON THIS PLAY, CUTLER
GETS SACKED BY TWO
COMETS. BUT
DURING THE PLAY CUTLER'S
KNEE GOT CAUGHT UP AND
TWISTED. HE HAD TO
BE CARRIED OFF THE FIELD
AND HE WOULD NOT RETURN.
SO HIS REPLACEMENT,
JUNIOR WALTER HAROLD
WOULD
COME IN AND ON 4TH AND
GOAL AT THE 40 YARD
LINE....HE THROWS A
PERFECT
BALL TO MIKE ALSTON FOR
THE TOUCHDOWN. WHAT A
GREAT CALL BY
COACH SCOTT. JUST BEFORE
THE HALF, SOPHOMORE
JASON LEWIS SCORES ON THE
END AROUND.
OCEAN LAKES MOVES ON WITH
A 34-3 WIN OVER GRANBY.
OCEAN LAKES WILL PLAY THE
WINNER OF THE

TONIGHT HE HOPES
TO PLAY NEXT WEEK. AS
FOR THE GAME, GRASSFIELD
AT THE
GOALINE AND THATS MARCUS
MITCHELL TAKING IT OVER
TO GIVE THE GRIZZLIES
A 1 POINT LEAD. BUT
SALEM WOULD GET A NICE
RETURN
AND SET UP THIS SHORT
DIVE BY ANDRE TORAN TO
GIVE SALEM BACK
THE LEAD. 18-13. BUT
THERE WAS PLENTY OF TIME
LEFT ON THE CLOCK AND
CHECK OUT THE PLAY OF THE
GAME. THATS MARCUS
MITCHELL FOR GRASSFIELD
BREAKING OFF A NICE LONG
RUN....ALL
THE WAY DOWN TO THE 8
YARD LINE, BUT THE BALL
IS RIPPED FROM HIS
HANDS BY TORIAN LAND.
SALEMS DEFENSE COMES UP
HUGE

BAYSIDE IN WHITE, CAME TO
PLAY. DESHAWN BLOW,
PICKED OFF BY
LOGAN BOYD, THE SENIOR
WITH A WORKING THE TIP
DRILL TO
PERFECTION.. AFTER A
SCORELESS FIRST QUARTER.

TAYQUAN MIZZELL, THE
FUTURE UVA CAVALIER
SCORES TO GIVE BAYSIDE
THE
6 TO NOTHING LEAD. FINAL
PLAY OF THE FIRST HALF.
OSCAR SMITH TRYING TO GO
INTO THE LOCKER ROOM WITH
AT LEAST
SOMETHING ON THE
SCOREBOARD. BLOW, TOSSES
IT TO DESHAWN HATTEN

A 20 YARD TOUCHDOWN
STRIKE. OSCAR SMITH LED
7 TO 6 AT THE BREAK.
THIRD QUARTER. BAYSIDE
TRYING TO TAKE CONTROL.
BUT THIS ONE GETS TIPPED
AND THAT'S AN
INTERCEPTION.

PICK 6.
AND HE GETS THE HOME
CROWD FIRED UP. STILL
THIRD QUARTER. BLOW AIRS
THIS ONE FOR JAYLEN
BRADSHAW. BRADSHAW WIDE
OPEN.
AND HE GETS TAKEN DOWN AT
THE 20. THEN A FEW PLAYS
LATER.
BRADSHAW DOESN'T SLOW
DOWN ON THIS PLAY. HE
GOES ALL THE WAY INTO THE
