It's playoff time, and Westerly had no trouble coming through when it counted. They simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat the West Warwick Wizards 34-6. The Bulldogs might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven contests by 28 points or more this season.

Landon Husereau produced another solid effort throwing for 209 yards and three TDs on only 16 passes, while also rushing for 82 yards and one touchdown on only six carries. Those 82 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.

Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Westerly proved: they limited West Warwick to a paltry 2.5 yards per carry. While two picked up at least 12 total tackles, Tristan Johnstone stood above the rest. He made 12 total tackles and snagged two interceptions. Westerly didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 5.6.

Westerly didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. In fact, those interceptions all came courtesy of defensive juggernaut Johnstone. He is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in each of the last four games he's played. Caleb Williams was another major factor on D, picking up a sack and making 12 total tackles (3.0 for loss).

Westerly is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 8-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 10.7 points on average over those games. As for West Warwick, they moved to 6-4 with that loss, which also ended their four-game winning streak.

Westerly and West Warwick are set to take part in some playoff action in their next matches. The Bulldogs will look to defend their home field on the 23rd against South Kingstown at 12:00 p.m. The Rebels' defense has only allowed 14.4 points per game this season, so Westerly's offense will have their work cut out for them. As for West Warwick, they will get a bit of extra time to process the defeat as their next game is a ways off. They'll take on Coventry at 10:00 a.m. on the 27th. The Wizards will be up against the Oakers' rather soft defense (which has allowed 35.27 points per matchup), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance.
