Northview Falls To Choctaw
September 27, 2014
The 1A Northview Chiefs stepped up multiple classes Friday night to take on the Class 6A Choctaw Indians on the road. And the Chiefs lost again this year by the same 35 point margin as last year.
The Indians topped the Chiefs 42-7 in Fort Walton Beach Friday night after shutting them out 35-0 last year in Bratt.
Choctaw took a 13-0 lead in the first quarter. Early in second, Northview quarterback Gavin Grant found Nick Lambert for a 54-yard touchdown to make it 13-7. The Northview defense held the Indians scoreless in the second. After an 80-yard drive from their own nine-yard line, the Chiefs’ Chasen Freeman attempted but missed a 28-yard field goal with less than two seconds in the half.
The Indians scored an unanswered 29 points in the second half for the win. Choctaw held Northview to 183 yards, 81 rushing, on the night.
Northview, ranked third in Class 1A, was 3-0 headed into Friday night’s contest. Now 3-1, the Chiefs (3-1) will be back in Bratt next Friday night for Homecoming as they host the Jay Royals (2-2) in the district opener for both teams. Jay is coming off a 54-14 win Friday night over a visiting McIntosh, AL, team.
