GAME NOTES:

Game 10 of the 2007 season is Round one of the 2007 Michigan High School Athletic Association playoffs, pitting Division six teams Hartford and Constantine together. These teams will see each other for the first time Friday night at Sweetland Stadium. Hartford visits the stadium regularly in track, as the Regional track meet is hosted there. There is only a certain amount of seating on the visitors side, so bring your lawn chairs.

 
PREVIOUS GAME REVIEW:
Both teams are coming off of their eighth win of the season last Friday night. Hartford (8-1) earned its second Southwestern Athletic Conference Championship with a decisive 42-14 victory over the Gobles Tigers. Constantine (8-1) also scored a big win, a 41-0 decision over the hosting Colon Magi. Hartford's Junior Varsity squad traveled to Colon earlier in the season, for reference.
 
COACHING MATCHUP:
This will be the first time these coaches see each other, due to it being the first meeting between these two major football powerhouses. David Janicki roams the sidelines for Hartford. He has already accomplished a main goal, a conference championship, in just two years in Hartford. He and his staff hope to continue their winning ways this week. Janicki is 16-4 in his first 20 games in Indian Country. On the Constantine sideline is Shawn Griffith. Griffith is in his third season, taking over from the legendary Tim Baker. Griffith has guided his team to a co-Saint Joseph Valley league title in 2006 and was second this year to Mendon. Griffith is 28-5 at Constantine.
 
GAME WEATHER:
Currently, it appears this game looks to be COOL AND WET! The forecast is for cool temperatures around 55 degrees at kickoff and falling throughout the evening. Also, by late evening, the threat of showers and occasional thunderstorms hits the forecast, so be aware of changing weather.
 
PLAYERS TO WATCH:
For Constantine, they run the wing-T offense, so much of their plays on offense will be on the ground. Jared McBride and Andrew Morse lead the ground attack, while Anthony Miller will call the plays and take the snaps at quarterback. Constantine's "biggest line" in a while features Kyle Grindle, Travis Marunde and Spencer Bouwkamp. Casey Smagala and end Brandon Wolfe will be the defensive leaders.
 
VARSITY TEAM COMMENTS:
NONE THIS WEEK!
 
SAC CONFERENCE UPDATE:
Only four SAC teams remain in the 256 team playoff field, which begins this week. In Division seven, Gobles (7-2) travels to Muskegon Catholic Central (6-3) and in Division eight, Lawrence (6-3) travels to Climax-Scotts (9-0), while Martin (7-2) is the only SAC team hosting a game, as Eau Claire (8-1) comes into town.
 
JUNIOR VARSITY UPDATE:
The Junior Varsity Football team was stormed out yet again. After making the trek to Crossover Rival Bloomingdale, the Indians were told the game was cancelled due to severe weather in the area. The game will not be made up, so, the Indians ended the season at 2-6 overall, 1-4 in the South Division.
 
JUNIOR VARSITY TEAM COMMENTS:
NONE THIS WEEK!
