Northview Chiefs 3-0 After Beating Bozeman (With Photo Gallery)
September 25, 2010
The Northview Chiefs destroyed the Bozeman Bucks 48-14 in Bratt Friday night.
The Chiefs (3-0, 2-0) pounded away at the Bucks with over 330 yards on the ground and five players into the end zone for touchdowns.
“It was the most complete game that we’ve played this year. I challenged them to really finish a ballgame. During our first two games, we played well at times, but it was not consistent through the course of the game,” Northview Head Coach Sid Wheatley said. “I thought from the opening bell to the end, we played well tonight. I was pleased with that.”

The Chief’s first touchdown of the game came from sophomore La’Mikal Kyles (pictured left) to put the Chiefs on the board with 3:06 to go in the first quarter with a 38-yard touchdown run. A good kick, at the Chiefs were up 7-0 early in their home opener.
Less than two minutes into the second, quarterback Brandon Sheets was in from 23-yards out as the Chiefs expanded their lead to 14-0.
Bozeman thought they were on the move with about nine minutes to go in the half, but Kyles and company had other plans. The sophomore running back swiped the ball from a surprised Bucks player, running it 32 years for another NHS touchdown. With another good kick, the Chiefs were up 21-0 with 8:43 to go before halftime.
That lead jumped to 28-0 after Sheets hit Jake Clayton with a 25-yard pass with 4:23 to go in the second.
Roderick Woods had a five-yard TD run with 8:55 on the clock in the third. The Bucks answered with their first touchdown of two with 4:03 in the third. Dustin Yuhasz was in for a touchdown from a full 80 yards out with 3:00 to go in the game as the Chiefs wrapped up a win over the Bozeman Bucks 48-0.
Yuhasz had a half dozen carries for 140 yards, while Mitchell had 80 yards for the Chiefs. Sheets had three carries for 24 yards and was 2 of 3 in the air for 38 yards.
Dustin Yuhasz was in for another touchdown with 26.1 seconds go to before the bands took to the field, but his 54-yard TD was called back on a holding flag. On the next down, Montaio Mitchell, a junior, followed with a 54-yard touchdown run of his own to put the Chiefs up 34-0 after a good Lance Bushaw kick.
The Chiefs will rack up some more frequent traveler miles next week as they head to Baker in another District game.
“I know they are going to throw the ball around a little bit,” Wheatley said of the Baker Gators. “It’s going to be a challenger. We’ve got to get better and be ready to play next Friday. Every Friday can be tough, so we are going to be ready.”
