“Our kids have great character,” said Milan coach Jesse Hoskins. The 3-2 Rams jumped out to a 28-7 lead Friday in their first win over the Big Reds since 2011. “We’ve got a lot of respect for that program.” “Since I’ve been here, we’ve never, as a staff, beaten them,” said Rams coach Buck Reaume. It had been even longer since the Rams defeated the Big Reds at home. It had been a while since Flat Rock beat Milan. Brayden Ratliff kicked a 38-yard field goal − his third of the game − with 8 seconds remaining to give the Vikings a 9-7 win. Zanger came back on the field late in the fourth quarter and directed the game-winning drive.


Ethan Layton (9 catches for 55 yards), Caden Bellaire (6-54), and Braiden Whiaker (3-42) all played well with Bolster guiding the offense. "It's not like a Cade McNamara- JJ McCarthy situation that Michigan has, but we're able to do some different things on offense with him."īolster played most of the game and played well, finishing 13-of-18 passing for 139 yards. "He (Boslter) is a different style of quarterback than Ryan," Ayre said. Ayre hoped a change of pace might spark the offense. The Vikings did just that Friday.īolster took over at quarterback in the first half with the Vikings offense sputtering through the first three drives and Zanger nursing an injury. Ryan Zanger ultimately took the job and helped Dundee get off to a 4-0 start heading into this past week's game against Brooklyn Columbia Central.īut coach Steve Ayre always expected to use multiple quarterbacks during the season. Injuries concerns kept him on the sideline over the last couple years, but he competed for the quarterback job during training camp and preseason practices. He left one on the 1-yard line and another came down around the 10 as the kicker clearly was experimenting with trying to get more height.ĭundee senior Drew Bolster is playing football for the first time since he was a freshman. Seven of them were deep into the end zone and could not be returned. The Monroe coach also was impressed with Samaha’s kickoffs. “He’s got plenty of leg,” Monroe coach Dave Mifsud said. The 49-yard field goal cleared the crossbar with ease. He certainly looked like a Division 1 recruit Friday night against Monroe, booting field goals of 49, 41, 20 and 13 yards to go along with four conversion kicks. Ann Arbor Huron kicker Adam Samaha will play for the University of Michigan next season.
