High School Football

After a year of firsts (or first in a long time) season, the Battle Creek Bearcats hope to come back to the playoffs for seconds.

It was the first meeting between the Battle Creek Central Bearcats and Parma Western Panthers Friday night, with a District championship on the line in the Michigan High School Athletic Association playoffs.

We started with 11 Battle Creek area teams in the postseason, and we are now down to five.

The second week of the Michigan High School Athletic Association's football playoffs will get underway later this week, with one area team playing as host.

For two teams that had not been in the playoffs in some time, they both brought their best efforts in the opener of the High School Football postseason.

The playoffs have finally arrived in the High School ranks in Michigan and 288 11-Man and 8-Man teams will vie for 10 championships that will be crowned in November.

After nine weeks of High School Football across Michigan, 11 area squads will continue their seasons this week with the beginning of the Michigan High School Athletic Association's playoffs.

Even though the Lakeview Spartans and the Harper Creek Beavers ended their 2018 campaigns on the gridiron, those in attendance who withstood an ongoing mist throughout the game, saw a great finale for both squads.

The second night of Week 9 for High School Football in the Cereal City takes us back to where we were last week for a step back in time.

Two teams took to the turf at C.W. Post Field Thursday night seeking to better their standing in potential postseason bids in the 8-Man ranks. One of those teams proved their dominance in the process.
