The Chiefs (9-1) were first on the board with 2:26 to go in the first quarter with a one-yard quarterback keeper from Brandon Sheets and a good kick through the uprights from Lance Bushaw, 7-0 Chiefs.

But the West Florida Jaguars (1-9) answered with 9:08 to go in the half on a 3-yard run. Then, with 11.4 seconds to go in the half, Brandon Sheets was in again on a quarterback keeper. But an unintended referee whistle called the ball dead, reversing the score. But on the replayed down, the Chiefs performed again; this time with a one-yarder from Roderick Woods. A good kick, and the Chiefs held a 14-0 lead heading into the locker room at the half.

Late in the third quarter, the Chiefs added to their advantage with a 30-yard Dustin Yuhasz touchdown with 28 seconds on the clock. Northview padded their win with 5:31 to go in the game in Bratt with a Sheets keeper from three yards out. Another good kick from Bushaw, and the Chiefs were up 28-7.

The Northview Chiefs will be on the road next Friday night in round one of the District 1A playoff against Blountstown.
