Michael Goodemoot contributing to Lakewood football's turnaround
Michael Goodemoot was caught off guard. After putting together a strong freshman season as a running back on junior varsity, he was approached by Lakewood coach Tim Swore about playing on varsity as an offensive lineman.

Opening his varsity career as the right tackle for the Vikings wasn't the preference for Goodemoot, who had assumed he would spend that season playing running back on junior varsity or backing up his older brother in the backfield on varsity.

BATTLE CREEK - We have our snacks, our road pops, our map and we have gas in the truck. Pigskin Picks is going on the road this week.
