Northview Head Coach Sid Wheatley said he was pleased with good blocking from his offensive linemen Friday night.

I thought we were able to control the ball well on offense; our backs had a good night,” he said. “Defensively we were a little bit undisciplined in the way were keying what they were doing in the backfield.  But those are little things we can fix.

Wheatley said the team will head into tough, focused four-day a week summer workouts with a focus on strength, conditioning and speed. “We are really going to try to grow together as a football team,”  with eyes on another trip to state in Orlando.
