OAK PARK 34, ROYAL OAK 13

HARRISON 45, Warren Fitzgerald 14

The Hawks dominated this contest and over-matched the Spartans in all phases of the game, whether it was on offense, defense, or special teams. Playing in the White also helped Harrison as well. The Hawks will move onto the next round and play Warren Woods Tower back in Warren next week.

CLARKSTON 37, Grand Blanc 7

The Wolves used a solid ground attack behind Michael Fluegel and Josh Cantu to dominate the Bobcats. Grand Blanc struggled to move the ball as well against Clarkston. The Wolves will play  Davison in the next round in Genesse County. Last season Clarkston beat the Cardinals 31-14 in Davison.

Warren De LaSalle 46, FERNDALE 0

The Eagles were just dominated by the bigger and deeper Pilots. Ferndale had no answer for any of the Warren De LaSalle attack resulting in their second straight first round exit. The Eagles finish the season at 8-2.

Waterford Mott 33, TROY 0

The Colts were simply no match for the high-octane Corsairs in Waterford on Friday night. Waterford Mott used all phases of the game dominating Troy. The Colts finished the season at 6-4.

ADAMS 26, Romeo 17

The Highlanders picked up a well-earned win over the Bulldogs on Friday night, it was the team’s first playoff win since 2013.

Adams will have a big challenge ahead of them next week when they go to Sweinhart Field and take on Utica Eisenhower.

WEST BLOOMFIELD 31, BLOOMFIELD HILLS 6

Five turnovers won’t win you a lot of games and that’s what happened to the Blackhawks against the Lakers. West Bloomfield still upset after losing 28-24 in week two bounced back and won their eighth straight game. Bloomfield Hills finishes the season at 6-4. The Lakers will head to Waterford Mott next week in a high-octane showdown.

Warren Woods Tower 31, HAZEL PARK 0

Brandon 45, AVONDALE 44

The heavy rains didn’t make the Yellow Jackets and Blackhawks game in Auburn Hills into a low scoring affair instead this one went high scoring and insane.

The Yellow Jackets responded with a field goal to take a two-point lead only to see the Blackhawks kick a 25-yard winning field goal with no time remaining breaking Avondale’s hearts.

The game would go to overtime and Groves missed a field goal setting up the Warriors to have their own opportunity but it was blocked. The Falcons were stopped on a fourth and goal in the third overtime setting up a field goal by Birmingham Brother Rice giving them the game. Groves finishes the season at 7-3.
