Mixed results in midget footballAll the good news for the Mooresville Midget Football League within the Southland Football League play last weekend came complete with the bad. That was the case as, for the first of two times all season, MMFL teams squared off against each other in both the SFL Pee Wee and Midget divisions in games additionally spiced by the fact that it accounted for the first time they squads set foot on the new synthetic playing surface on their home Mooresville Stadium field. In games played in the Pee Wee division, the Warriors trimmed the Hornets, 6-0, and the Terminators nipped the Cougars, 16-14, while in the Midget class, the Warriors inched past the Hornets, 8-0 in overtime, the Hornets stung the Warriors, 28-6, and the Cougars clawed past the Terminators, 14-0. Pee Wee Division Warriors 8, Hornets 0 (OT) On defense, the Warriors were led by Juan Willis’ 10 tackles. Derrick Moreland added five tackles and made the initial hit that ended the Hornets overtime drive. Chase Monroe and Hull also aided the cause with five tackles each. Cougars 16, Terminators 14 On defense, Blake Gooding gobbled up a fumble recovery while chalking up three tackles, while Matt Koehler also pounded on a Terminators fumble. Bryan Izzo picked up a pair of tackles. On special team play, Colton Pierce accounted for a 45-yard kickoff that was unable to be returned by the foes. On defense for the winners, who held the foes scoreless until the third period, Jordan Maw picked up several tackles for loss, while the play of Bryce Thomas, Teyonta Davis, Gottberg, Kane Price, Jacob Wessell and Bullock also anchored the unit. Troy Garrett was also credited with a saving tackle on a kickoff return. For the Warriors, Christopher Phifer paved the way with his 97 yards rushing and scored the lone touchdown. Running room was made possible courtesy of the blocking efforts of linemen Wade Phllips, Marcus Torrence, Christian Walker, and Dylan Wilcox. On defense, Walker paced the Warriors with seven tackles, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. Phifer and Jacob Engle added five tackles each. On special teams, Thomas Walker, Timothy Coffey, and Boby Johnson all made plays that stood out on kick coverage Cougars 14, Terminators 0 It was the Cougars defense, though, that stole the show, despite being backed up deep in its own territory on two occasions to preserve the shutout. Dondre Howell’s 10 tackles combined with Parham’s six tackles, a forced fumble and pass interception keyed the effort. Also helping apply the clamps for the Cougars included Glenn Izzo, Jesse Walker, Tyler Diehl, Barry, Zachary Wardlow, Whitney and Markel Norris. Cougars 26, Trojans 2 Defensively, the effort that basically recorded the shutout was anchored in part by Walker, Diehl, Sir Henry Miller, Howell, Whitney, Barry, Bailey Pope, and Justin King.
