The Northwest Escambia Football League hosted Gulf Breeze Saturday, with two of three NWE Eagle teams shutting out the Dolphins.

The NWE Mini Mites started the games off by falling to the Dolphins with a loss of 30-0. Chase Gifford and Hunter Edwards made several tackles which slowed the advancement of a seemingly unstoppable Dolphin team. This primarily rookie team kept their spirits high with the experience of this loss preparing them for East Milton next week.

On the flip side, the NWE Mites obtained their first regular season victory with an incredible 42-0 shut out against the Dolphin team. Chasen Freeman took control of the game in the first play by running for an exhilarating 40 plus yard touchdown on the opening kickoff for the Eagles. With such an exciting start, the Eagles kept the momentum going by maintaining a flawless defense and an invincible offense. This win is exactly what the Mites needed to catapult them into a winning season.

The NWE Midgets following suit a Dolphin defeat. This was the second win of the season for the Midget Eagles. The Eagle defense shut the Dolphins down by keeping them off the scoreboard. The final score was Eagles 40, Dolphins 0.

All three teams play again at the Ernest Ward Middle School Field next Saturday at 9:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m. and 12:00 noon against the East Milton Jaguars.

    Thanks to NorthEscambia.com for covering our local football league. If Northview is ever going to be a top notch football progam our community has to support our youth football league from a early age. NWE was started for the sole reason of helping our kids learn the basic fundamentals of football before they reach Northview. Without our kids playing at NWE the Middle School would get players that have never played football before, just imagine what that would look like!!
