Harper Woods football uses trick play to put away Detroit King in district final

HARPER WOODS — What do you do when you’re Harper Woods and you’re nursing a 14-6 lead over Detroit King with just under eight minutes left in the Division 3 district championship? Do you keep feeding the ball to five-star senior and Oregon commit Dakota Guerrant, who accounted for 83 of his team-high 112 rushing yards out of the wildcat formation in the second half? Or do you risk it all with a trick play to put away the game? Harper Woods went big. More: Subscribe to “Michigan Sidelines,” our high school sports newsletter Down the stretch, Guerrant was gaining nine yards here, seven yards there. He even ripped off a pair of 15-yarders. But when Harper Woods reached midfield, it checked out of another run and called a play it had been waiting to run all season. That’d be the hook and ladder. Quarterback Austin Mitchell threw a short pass to Guerrant on a hook route. Guerrant immediately pitched the ball backward to four-star recruit Deandre Bidden, who got the edge on King’s defense and raced 60 yards untouched to essentially seal the 20-6 victory with 7:11 left and send Harper Woods (9-2) to next week’s regional final against

Jai'Von Plowden refused to go down until he had the wooden mitten trophy in his hands. In a back-and-forth Division 6 district final against Clinton, the Detroit Edison senior running back made sure he produced the final play Saturday, Nov. 7. After Clinton had taken a lead with 6:48 left, Plowden broke free for an 81-yard touchdown, giving Edison (10-1) the lead in its 26-24 win over Clinton (9-2) in a showdown between two top-5 Division 6 teams in an MHSAA district final at Edison High School. On a shotgun handoff up the middle, Plowden burst into the second level, cut hard toward the right sideline and then outran everyone.

Northville football looks to keep its surprise run going in regional final

Northville knew it needed to keep unbeaten Saline’s high-powered offense off the field if it was going to win Friday, Nov. 6. Northville (8-2) did exactly that, grinding out two lengthy touchdown drives and controlling the line of scrimmage in a 17-14 victory to win the Division 1 district championship. Saline (10-1) entered averaging 46.1 points per game, the 10th-best average in Michigan. But Northville limited Saline to just 29 offensive plays. Danny O’Neil punched in the go-ahead TD from the 1-yard line in the third quarter, helping Northville advance to next week’s regional against Detroit Cass Tech (11-0). It’s Northville’s third district championship in program history and second in four seasons. Its first came in 2000. More: Subscribe to “Michigan Sidelines,” our high school sports newsletter “We wanted to control the line of scrimmage, attack the C gap and run downhill to see if they wanted to play a 15-round fight with us, and I don’t think they wanted to,” Northville coach Brent Luplow said. “We were really able to be more physical than them.” Saline quarterback Case Campbell threw a 13-yard TD pass to Gabe Iadipaolo in the first quarter, but Northville responded with a 13-play, 75-yard drive

Andrew Corder leads Warren De La Salle to Division 2 boys soccer title

GRAND LEDGE — An impressive performance from senior forward Andrew Corder powered Warren De La Salle (21-3-4) to its third consecutive Division 2 boys soccer title, defeating St. Joesph (23-1-0), 3-2, Saturday, Nov. 7, at Grand Ledge High School. Corder assisted on De La Salle's opening goal, then scored twice himself in the second half, his second straight postseason game with a brace. The senior ends his career as the program’s all-time leading goal scorer. “There’s no doubt that Andrew Corder is Mr. Soccer,” coach Thaier Mukhtar said. “If there was any doubt before now there isn’t. He scored two goals in the semifinal, two in the championship, who can deny him.” The game opened with St. Joesph applying pressure, taking four corner kicks in the game’s first 10 minutes. St. Joseph was unable to capitalize on the early momentum though, failing to test De La Salle senior keeper Dominic Baldarotta with the first two shots of the contest. The momentum flipped moments later, with Corder pushing the ball down the left wing for De La Salle's first real chance of the game. He put a beautiful cross in, finding the foot of senior midfielder Settimo Leone, who calmly slotted

MHSAA football playoffs: Northville earns 'program-defining' district title

Andrew Shukeireh found himself in the spotlight on Friday, Nov. 6, during the biggest moment of Northville football's season. Holding a 17-14 lead over unbeaten Saline late in the fourth quarter of the 2026 MHSAA football District 1 division final, Shukeireh chased down a Hornets player and made a touchdown-saving tackle. Northville's defense held, forcing Saline into a field goal with three minutes left. This time, Shukeireh shot around the edge of the line and knocked the field goal attempt off course, preserving the lead. Northville (9-2) ran out the remaining clock, knocking off Saline (10-1) to pick up the third district championship in program history. DIVISION 6: Jai'Von Plowden breaks free to lift Detroit Edison to MHSAA district title "All three phases played about as good as they possibly could," Northville coach Brent Luplow said the following day. "In November, you have to run the football and get stops." Northville did just that. The Mustangs held the ball most of the night thanks to their strong running attack, finishing with over 34 minutes of possession. Northville dedicated itself to running the football, using seven different ball-carriers and a variety of formations. It was any means necessary against a talented

Livonia Franklin football uses its blue-collar mindset to keep rolling in playoffs

Livonia Franklin football coach Chris Kelbert said this is the quirkiest, goofiest bunch of players he’s ever coached in his 26 years leading the program. But that doesn’t mean they’ve strayed from the blue-collar, lunch-pail mentality Kelbert’s teams have always had. If anything, having that kind of personality makes Franklin even tougher to beat. These players are going to prepare hard, play physical football and battle you for four quarters. They’re just going to have a little fun doing it, too. More: Subscribe to “Michigan Sidelines,” our high school sports newsletter That was the case in Franklin’s 17-6 upset win Friday, Nov. 6, at unbeaten Gibraltar Carlson. Carlson (10-1) played tough defense in the first half, but Franklin finally broke through after halftime to win its first Division 2 district championship since 2022. The victory sends Franklin to next week’s regional at Grosse Pointe South (10-1). Jake Kotrych broke the game open with a 12-yard TD run in the third quarter. After Carlson responded, Zyaire Lanier punched in a TD from the goal line to give Franklin the lead for good. Octavian Joita followed with a 32-yard field goal shortly afterward. “Offensively, they kept us under wraps in the first

Adrian's season unravels in district finals loss to Divine Child, Week 11 playoffs roundup

DEARBORN — Luke Bruggeman’s jersey told the story. The royal blue No. 7 on the back of his jersey was practically illegible, with the lettering and a significant portion of the fabric ripped loose. Bruggeman’s undershirt didn’t fare much better as a sizeable hole tore through the fabric on the upper half of his left sleeve. The jersey was battered. So were the Maples. Adrian wrapped up its 2026 season Friday night with a 49-14 loss to Divine Child in the MHSAA Division 4 district finals. The reigning state champion Falcons put the game out of reach early and took a 42-0 lead into halftime. Divine Child’s dynamic duo of quarterback Drew Sheridan and wide receiver Rayshawn Thomas plagued the Maples from the opening drive. Adrian had no answers for the Falcons’ potent passing attack. Offensively, Adrian struggled with Divine Child’s speed and size at the line of scrimmage. The Maples didn’t record a first down until the third quarter. Bruggeman failed to score a touchdown and was held under 100 yards for the first time this season. Adrian’s special teams struggled, too. After a three-and-out on their opening drive, the Maples had a punt blocked by Divine Child’s Gianni
