Northview Pounds Freeport
October 18, 2014
The Northview Chiefs were ranked No. 5 in the state in Class 1A as they headed into a 43-9 pounding of the Freeport Bulldogs Friday night in Freeport.
Northview jumped out to a 7-0 lead on a touchdown from Lett.
Freeport worked their way to the red zone, but their endzone pass was picked off by Cameron Newsome for a return that set up a Chiefs 30-yard field goal, 10-0 Northview.
Tydraee Bradley added another touchdown for the Chiefs with 1:45 to go in the first quarter, 16-0. The Chiefs rolled on to a 31-0 halftime advantage before allowing a touchdown and field goal from Freeport in the second half.
Lett rushed for just 220 yards Friday night along with three touchdowns two weeks after setting a school single game record of a 313 total rushing yards. The senior is now well over 1,000 yards for the season — 523 of those yards in his last two games for those doing the math.
Newsome is at about 500 yards for the season after earning 137 yards along with a touchdown Friday night.
Chiefs are now 5-1 overall, 2-0 in the district. They will host 4A Walton Friday night before taking on the undefeated Baker Gators for the district championship October 31 in Baker.
