Northview junior Dane King put Northview on the board with 2:39 in the game on a 57-yard rushing touchdown. The Gators blocked the point after kick.
“We got behind early, and that’s something you can’t do on Baker,” Northview head coast Wes Summerford said after the game. “They’re really good at holding the football; that’s what they do. Ater that, it was hard to get our offense on the field and get our offense on the field and get our defense off the field.”
With the win, Baker improved to 6-1. The Northview Chiefs, now 2-5, will hit Highway 4 next Friday night to face the Jay Royals. The Royals are 6-1 with their only loss this year coming last month to the Flomaton Hurricanes.
