1A Playoffs: Northview Falls Short At Graceville
November 12, 2016
The Northview Chiefs were knocked out of the first round of the 1A playoffs on the road Friday night by the Graceville Tigers 43-14.
The Chiefs have not earned a playoff win since 2013.
Graceville took a 9-0 lead in the first with a safety and a touchdown. The Chiefs answered with a Luke Ward to Neikel Robinson 20-yard touchdown pass. With a good two point conversion, the Chiefs closed within one with 3:09 on the clock in the first quarter.
Ward found Robinson for another touchdown to take a 14-9 lead. But Graceville added three touchdowns for a 30-14 Tiger lead at the half. The Tigers went on to add additional touchdowns in the third and fourth — a total of 34 unanswered points for the win.
The Northview Chiefs ended their season at 6-5.

I believe that #4 Edwards had over 70 yards of rushing in the first quater of the game..He did a great job and never gave up .
Another year in the history books. Looking forward to next year.
