Let’s be serious. 400-yards is downright ridiculous. But that’s how much Alex Randall put up in the first round of the playoffs. 418 to be exact. Whew. Right behind him on the list is Bronson Hill from Grand Rapids Catholic Central, who tallied 338 yards on only 18 carries. Check [...]

Top-20 Running Backs in week-7
October 13, 2010
Comments { 2 }
300 yards is a plateau that only a few elite running backs reach in a single game. Hastings’ tailback Alex Randall did it in week-7, and Northpointe Christian’s Josh VanderWeide came up three yards short (figure a couple questionable spots, and I say give it to him). The two standout [...]
Week 6 Top 10 Teams in the OK Conferences

Word of warning, I don’t like computer rankings. BCS stands for one thing, Bowl Championship Series bad computer science. But I found myself in a real Catch-22 in this week’s rankings. West Ottawa beat Grand Haven 29-15, Grand Haven beat Rockford 26-23, then Rockford beat West Ottawa 14-7. So, how do [...]
Poll: Bigger performance in Week 5, Grasmeyer or Randall
September 23, 2010
Comments { 0 }
For some bizarre reason, Matt Grasmeyer is escaping media attention the same way he’s escaping defenders on Friday nights. Four games into the season, yet no one comments that Grasmeyer leads the state of Michigan in touchdown passes with 14 scores? 14 touchdown passes in four games. Nearly half of [...]

Greenville’s Zach Burris channeled his inner Randall Cunningham, throwing for 286 yards on only eight completions, for an [...]

I’ve got one question for you, Can you Randall it? Caledonia (1-3) had hoped to keep their sights set on Hastings’ Alex Randall, and they did… as they watched him go by for three touchdowns and 306 rushing yards. Hastings (4-0) defeated Caledonia for the first time in nine years [...]

Players Upgraded for Week Four Starting quarterback Luke Brower is back practicing with the first team at Holland Christian. Brower went down with a knee injury in the fourth quarter of their season opener against Holland. The Maroons have sorely missed their junior quarterback who went 21-for-30 for 345 yards [...]

Four weeks of football. The same number of weeks in an NFL playoff season. Week four is the hot tamale, the Super Bowl. Thankfully, we get a taste of that same spice and excitement in week four of high school football. Zeeland West “at” Zeeland East. Both stand at a [...]
