Please take the time to vote in our first poll of the 2018 football season. Our poll is to your left. Who will win the Huron League this season?
Airport: The Jets finished 2-5 in the league last season and 4-5 overall. Plenty of talent in Carleton and the coaching (Jim Duffy 2nd year) should be better.
Flat Rock: The Rams finished with their best record in a generation as they finished 5-2 in the Huron League and 7-3 overall. Heavy graduation losses in Flat Rock, but excellent coaching (Buck Reaume) will no doubt continue.
Grosse Ile: 2017 was a rebuilding year on the island as the Red Devils finished 2-5 in the league and 2-7 overall. GI boast arguably the best defensive player (John Blanzy) and best coach (Jon Bodner) in the Huron League.
Huron: Chief fans are still scratching their heads after a 4-3 league finish and a 5-5 overall campaign last season. This year could be addition by subtraction (smh), stars are gone, but talent and depth remain for a 1st year head coach (Chad Smith).
Jefferson: The Bears finished 0-9 for only the second time in school history in 2017. The defense was adequate, but the Bears must find a way to score this season for their 2nd year Head Coach (Gene Gennoe).
Milan: The Big Reds finished 5-2 in the league last season and 5-5 overall as they battled injuries all year. If Coach (Jesse Hoskins) can find some linemen to go with the best duo (Hunter Aeschbacker/Tristen Hines) in the league then Milan will be in the hunt.
Riverview: The Pirates won the Huron League last season with a 6-1 record while finishing 11-2 overall and making it to the state semi-finals. Graduation took a toll on Riverview, but don’t feel sorry for the defending champs or Coach Mac (Derek McLaughlin). Plenty of big time talent returns for the Bucs.
SMCC: The Catholics finished the league season at 4-3 and finished at 7-5 overall after advancing to the regional final. SMCC seemingly got better every game last season. Don’t expect another 5 loss season from Coach (Adam Kipf’s) Falcons.

Someone is banking on CC Hard
As Terry Foster would say long and Hard
CC will pound Milan and Riverview, they play Milan first then travel to Riverview, after them 2 games it's smooth sailing...
Riverview can pick up there 2018 league 4th place trophy now.

Riverview returning lots of talent....especially in our seniors. They are going to have to dig deep to find the leadership they had from last years seniors. That could be the difference in their success.

Gary will tell you that I love teams that throw the ball, but that I hate 7 on 7. So I will say this. I thought the teams look comparable playing to Mason’s strengths. With that said, SMCC will have one of the best and most athletic lines in the area while Mason will be young on the line. You win in the trenches and the Falcons wouldn’t throw the ball at all in a regular game against Mason.
Gary would pick Erie Mason to beat Riverview!!
Ask Gary and Chris they were there!!
9:53 are you kidding me , it's a passing scrimmage, no pressure on the qb and Mason is small...Mason would not stop CC if they played a game ..infact CC would put a running clock on them ..
After what I saw out at Mason tonight, Mason has the athletes to compete in the Huron League this year. I'm not sure how any LCAA team is going to be able to defend their passing game which just flat out torched SMCC most of the night and contain Beaudrie running the ball. If tonight was the Falcons best showing, they could be in trouble. Change. May be coming sooner to Mason than everyone expected!
