Another good week for Hawkeye commits. A few teams stayed undefeated and one got its first win. The stars of the week were Marcus Coker, who led his team to a 42-0 victory with 3 touchdowns and James Morris, who filled in a quarterback and put up big offensive numbers.
Marcus Coker: DeMatha 42 - Paul VI Catholic 0
Coker racked up another 256 yards and 3 touchdowns on 15 carries in a route of the Paul VI Panthers. On the season Coker has 880 total rushing yards and has scored 11 touchdowns. He is averaging 12.4 yards per carry. His success on the field has him on the watch list for the high school National Player of the Year award.
Jim Poggi & Anthony Ferguson: Gilman 35 - Georgetown Prep 14
Gilman only had 2 complete passes, but rushed for over 300 yards in a 3 touchdown victory over Georgetown. I couldn't find if Poggi played this week, but read the linebackers played well, so I"m guessing that he did.
Christian Kirksey & Don Shumpert: Hazelwood East 41 - McCluer North 28
Trailing by one, Hazelwood East scored 14 4th quarter points to beat McCluer North for their first victory of the year. Shumpert had 4 recpetions for 50 yards. Kirksey returned a kickoff for 38 yards and added 12 tackles on defense.
Andrew Donnal: Anthony Wayne 37 - Maumee 20
On Parent's Night at Anthony Wayne, the Generals beat the previously undefeated Maumee Panthers. You can see a picture of Donnal ready for action here.
Austin Vier: Ballard 28 - Perry 7
Ballard's defense held Perry to only 127 total yards, winning easily 28 to 7 and moving to 5-0 on the year. Vier had an okay game at QB going 9 of 17 for 81 yards. He also had 1 touchdown and 2 interceptions.
Mike Hardy: Kimberly 27 - Appleton West 13
After falling 0-13 in the first quarter, the Papermakers stormed back to defeat Appleton West.
James Morris: Solon 41 - North Cedar 15
Solon moved to 5-0 on the season and is ranked #1 in Iowa Class 2A. Solon was without its starting QB, so Morris (usually a running back and linebacker) stepped in. The offense managed over 450 yards under Morris's command and he even threw a 50 yard TD.
Matt Hoch: Harlan 48 - Winterset 3
Harlan also moved to 5-0 beating down Winterset on Friday night. Hoch caught a 28 yard touchdown pass and ran for 44 yards on 2 carries.
Louis Trina-Pasat: Lane Tech 49 - Hyde Park 0
Lane Tech played its best game of the year running all over Hyde Park.
Brandon Scherff: Denison 14 - Sergeant Blugg-Luton 31
I was only able to find the score on this game.
