QUICK GAME RECAP ...
In a controlled playoff performance at Gridiron Stadium, the Silver Bay
Wolves defeated the River Heights Warriors 26–8, building a 20–0
halftime lead behind a dominant special teams play and a near-perfect
kicking performance before maintaining control throughout the second
half. Silver Bay set the tone early with Milt Burns’ punt return
touchdown and consistently capitalized on field position, while River
Heights struggled to sustain offense against heavy pressure that
resulted in seven sacks and stalled drives. MVP DRE Vince Preas (SILVER
BAY) anchored the defensive effort with 6 tackles, 2 sacks, and 3
tackles for loss, helping limit River Heights to just 8 points, while
kicker Mathew Brantley added 14 points on a perfect 4-for-4 field goal
day to provide the steady scoring edge. |
